Vermont  Gas  has  said  it  has  never  used  eminent  domain  in  its  50-­year  history,  and  hopes  it  can  secure  all  the  land  rights  for  the  project  with-­ out  doing  so.  But  given  that  the  company  has  begun  construction  while  still  in  need  of  agreements  with  two-­thirds  of  landowners  along Â

the  route,  and  the  fact  that  dozens  of  residents  in  Monkton  have  said  negotiations  with  the  company  have  stalled,  it  seems  unlikely  that  the  company  will  complete  the  pipeline  without  using  eminent  domain.

Beliveau,  who  has  never  subdi-­ vided  property  before  or  negotiated  an  easement,  said  he  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  know  what  he  should  do  next.  He  said  no  matter  if  he  negotiates  an  easement  or  takes  his  case  to  eminent  domain,  he  worries  that  the  process  will  be  ¿QDQFLDOO\ GUDLQLQJ â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  not  wealthy  people,  by  any  means,â&#x20AC;?  Beliveau  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  paying Â

out  of  pocket  through  this  process  of  subdividing,  and  the  thought  of  hav-­ ing  to  pay  a  lawyer  and  go  through  the  whole  process  is  pretty  daunting,  at  this  point.â&#x20AC;?

Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  failure  to  two  children  rests  in  culture  of  AHS  politics  Two  children  died  recently.  There  is  no  es-­ caping  the  conclusion  that  they  were  failed  by  the  system.  Yet  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  been  told  our  system  has  not  failed.

The  discussion  around  these  tragedies  has  focused  on  blame.  Blaming  the  social  workers  that  may  have  been  the  last  responsible  adults  to  see  the  children.  I  can  relate  to  the  need  to  ¿QG EODPH LQ WKH DIWHUPDWK RI ZKDW ZLOO EH D piercingly  vivid  moment  in  collective  memory.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  walked  more  than  a  mile  in  their  shoes.  For  several  years  I  was  a  child  protection  social  worker.  In  2008,  my  team  investigated  an  alle-­ gation  of  child  abuse  of  a  newborn.  He  showed  no  marks  from  the  abuse  and  I  was  therefore  unable  to  act  within  the  parameters  of  my  role  and  my  authority.  Two  weeks  later,  the  child  was  dead.  Killed  by  his  father  who  had  a  his-­ tory  of  domestic  violence.

In  this  situation,  uninformed  critics  claimed  the  social  workers  failed  to  run  a  background  check  on  the  father.  They  left  out  the  fact  that  although  domestic  violence  is  the  single  stron-­ gest  predictor  of  child  fatalities  from  abuse,  it  would  have  made  no  difference.  My  team  had  no  authority  to  remove  that  child  just  because  the  father  had  been  violent  with  his  past  part-­ ners. $OWKRXJK LW SURYLGHV D Ă&#x20AC;HHWLQJ UHOLHI WR SRLQW anger,  the  social  workers  did  not  cause  this.  (YHQ LI WKH\ ZHUH Ă&#x20AC;DZOHVV LQ WKHLU H[HFXWLRQ of  their  protocols,  this  was  caused  by  a  deeply  Ă&#x20AC;DZHG V\VWHP , ZURWH DERXW LW LQ ZKLOH , worked  closely  with  social  workers  on  the  front  lines.  These  insiders  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  allowed  to  raise  Ă&#x20AC;DJV RI FRQFHUQ DERXW WKH V\VWHP WKH\ DUH D part  of,  so  I  did.

Doris  grew  up  with  a  love  of  music  and  dancing  and  these  were  to  remain  lifelong  interests.  As  a  young  woman  she  ventured  into  New  York  City  and  began  a  dance  career  at  the  same  studio  that  Rita  Hayworth  and  Buddy  Ebsen  attended.  She  auditioned  for  and  was  accepted  into  the  elite  world  of  Radio  City  Music  Hall  Rockettes.  This  career  ended  however,  when  on  a  trip  to  the  family  camp  on  Lake  Champlain  in  Vermont  she  met  a  young  farmer  who  stole  her  heart.

Bernard  predeceased  her  in  September  of  2011.  Doris  and  Bernard  had  one  daughter,  Lauri-­Lynn,  who  survives  them.  They  loved  Lauri-­Lynn  very  much  and  were  devoted  to  her.  Doris  possessed  a  keen  sense  of  humor  and  was  known  to  always  have  a  new  joke  at  the  ready.  Her  smile  and  the  twinkle  in  her  eyes  as  VKH WROG WKHVH IXQQ\ VWRULHV UHĂ&#x20AC;HFWHG WKH true  pleasure  and  joy  she  felt  in  sharing  them.  She  was  always  ready  for  fun  and  enjoyed  the  company  of  friends.

Judith Vaill-Lombardo, 63, formerly of New Haven NIANTIC,  Conn.  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Judith  Vaill-­Lombardo  of  Niantic,  Conn.,  formerly  of  New  Haven,  Vt.,  died  peacefully  on  July  5  surrounded  by  her  devoted  husband,  Jim  Lombardo,  and  loving  daughters,  Merissa  and  Mia. Born  in  Norton,  Ohio,  on  Nov.  10,  1950,  Judith  spent  30  wonderful  years  with  her  husband  in  their  beloved  150-­year  old  Vermont  home,  raising  her  two  daughters,  seven  cats,  incred-­ ible  flowers  and  vegetables,  and  an  occasional  chicken.  In  addi-­ tion  to  her  immediate  family,  she  leaves  behind  two  brothers,  Jim  and  Don  Himmelright;Íž  several  cousins,  nieces  and  nephews;Íž  and  many  devoted  friends.  She  was  predeceased  by  her  father,  Donald  Himmelright,  and  mother,  Evelyn  (McWhorter)  Himmelright.

Judy  loved  teaching  and  reveled  in  the  success  of  her  students,  devoting  more  than  30  years  to  her  classes,  the  last  25  at  Middlebury  (Vt.)  Union  High  School.  She  was  a  voracious  reader,  devouring  an  aver-­ age  of  four  books  a  week,  ranging  from  Dostoevsky  to  the  Dartmouth  Bible.  Even  after  her  retirement  from  teaching  in  2005,  she  contin-­ ued  to  communicate  with  and  advise  dozens  of  former  students.

She  was  a  passionate  and  devoted  friend,  continuously  sharing  her  love  of  food  and  travel,  especially  with  her  wonderful  friends,  Kate,  Marianne,  Candace  and  Donelle.  No  one  cooked  a  better  meal  than Â

Judith,  whether  it  was  a  12-­course  holiday  dinner  or  a  gourmet  mac  â&#x20AC;&#x2122;n  cheese.  She  shared  a  love  for  new  places  and  people  and  food  with  her  husband,  as  together  they  travelled  to  dozens  of  countries,  including  her  favorites:  Cambodia,  Kenya  and  Poland.

She  had  many  other  joys  in  her  life:  kayaking  the  Niantic  River  with  Mia;͞  preparing  a  gourmet  meal  with  Merissa;͞  discovering  a  new  land  with  Jim;͞  trying  a  new  champagne  with  a  Vermont  friend;͞  discussing  the  latest  episode  of  Downton  Abbey;͞  watching  the  Sunday  Pittsburgh  Steelers  game;͞  receiving  in  the  mail  the  latest  Clive  Cussler  novel;͞  sharing  a  travel  story  with  her  dear  friends,  Alan  and  Sonia,  from  Toronto;͞  caressing  a  new  bloom  in  her  incredible  flower  gardens.  And  she  joyously  doted  on  her  many  cats,  especially  Boris,  Millie,  Petey,  Jeremy  and  Lilly.

Most  of  all,  she  loved  her  girls.  She  was  so  proud  of  Mia  for  her  dedicated  work  in  Kenya  and  Swaziland,  and  her  pursuit  of  a  new  career  in  nursing.  She  bragged  about  Merissaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  many  artistic  endeavors,  from  film  production  to  interior  design  to  home  restora-­ tion.  She  would  travel  anywhere  to  share  a  joyous  event  with  one  of  her  children:  Louisville,  Kenya,  Pittsburgh,  Vermont.

Judith  was  a  powerful  woman  who  will  be  deeply  missed.

Kelly Brush (Continued from Page 18) make her aware that others shared her needs, but not her resources.

“Not everybody had people to raise money for them,” she said. “I kept thinking to myself, why am I so fortunate to be able to have this equipment? Why can’t everybody?”

Seeing athletes who might never have the opportunity to get the adap-­ tive equipment that she did, thanks to the fundraising efforts of her ski team, inspired Kelly Brush to help.

As a result, in addition to its focus on ski racing safety, the Kelly Brush Foundation awards grants for adap-­ tive sports equipment to individuals with paralysis due to a spinal cord injury.

To these grants and the focus on improving ski-­racing safety, the foundation adds a third component — it also supports research to treat and cure paralysis due to traumatic spinal cord injury. The foundation’s mission states its intent to “conquer the challenges of paralysis through love of sport and improve ski racing safety.”

In just the past nine years since the foundation opened its doors, it has raised $1.5 million toward this goal.

Most of this money comes from the Kelly Brush Century Ride, the foundation’s largest event of the year, which is based in Middlebury and brings cyclists and hand cyclists together for Vermont’s largest an-­

nual charity bike ride.

Kelly Brush, now a nurse practi-­ tioner in addition to her commitment to the Kelly Brush Foundation, said VKH KDV EHHQ LQFUHGLEO\ JUDWL¿HG DQG even amazed by the foundation’s growth.

“It’s pretty wild to think about where we started and where we’ve grown to,” she said. “I certainly nev-­ er dreamed that it could be as big as it is.”

Last year’s success allowed the foundation to give away the most grants yet to its largest pool of ap-­ plicants ever. However the Brushes and the foundation do not plan to stop there.

“It’s been interesting to see where we’re going because, as we raise more money, there’s more that we can do and more that we want to do,” Kelly Brush said.

WHAT’S NEXT Future goals include beginning an outreach program to connect with individuals with paralysis due to a spinal cord injury while they’re still in the hospital. The foundation hopes to eventually be in direct con-­ tact with these patients, introducing adaptive sports equipment and get-­ ting it to those in need more quickly

KELLY BRUSH LEADS more than 700 participants at the start of last year’s Kelly Brush Century Ride, Ver-­ mont’s largest charity bike ride. The ride, which begins and ends in Middlebury, raises money for spinal cord injury research and adaptive sports equipment for paralyzed athletes.

DQG HI¿FLHQWO\ The foundation has also begun hosting events other than the yearly Century Ride, such as an upcoming reception at the Shelburne Museum on Aug. 20. This reception, the sec-­ ond of its kind hosted by the foun-­ dation, acts as a supplement to the yearly Kelly Brush Century Ride.

These receptions are intended to raise money while educating people

on the mission of the foundation.

The foundation hopes to broaden its community base through these receptions, raising more money to expand its mission and award more grants than is currently possible.

Charlie Brush said the growth the foundation aims for will help serve a great need in the adaptive com-­ munity.

“I call it a responsibility and gift

that’s been put in front of us,” he said. “It would be irresponsible to walk away from the opportunity to help so many people, so we’re not going to walk away.”

This year’s ninth annual ride takes place Sept. 6 in Middlebury.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got our first entries of the summer! This radish was submitted for Rob Leno and was grown at his home in Whiting. It is 6.5 inches around! Its bigger than anything we have in our gardens so far!

e h t W f o e e t k e P

Late on Thursday afternoon we got our second, third and fourth entries of the year! George Biscoe, of Bridport, is a returning favorite to our game. This week he brought in a broccoli that measured 19 inches across, a cauliflower that was 8 inches across and a cabbage that bested his winner from last year at 34 inches around. Seems like that cabbage will be tough to beat!

VERMONTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S TWICE-­WEEKLY NEWSPAPER

Hey, everybody! My name is Vinnie!

Vinnie is a black pug, approximately 8 years old, who has been staying with us since March of 2014. He was surrendered by his owner because she was moving to Florida and only wanted to bring one dog with her, and most probably because he has never learned not to pee in the house.

We have had him in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;belly bandâ&#x20AC;? (dog diaper) since shortly after he arrived, and he manages well with it. He does want to leave his scent indoors, but I believe that somebody who has time and energy to invest in his learning process

would make good progress.

Vinnie is a charmer and a love. He likes nothing better than to lie in my arms when I am reading or watching television, and he is a constant companion. He has a bit of a jealous streak, so the ideal home would be one with low- to-moderate activity and, at the most, one other dog. He would love to be a humanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oneand-only companion.

Vinnie likes to take long walks and play, though he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite keep up with our 4-year-old pug. He is in

excellent health but does show a bit of GLIĂ&#x20AC; FXOW\ RQ WKH KRW DQG KXPLG GD\V VR he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do well with strenuous exercise during the summer days. Apart from his little quirks, he really is a sweet dog ZKR ZRXOG ORYH WR Ă&#x20AC; QG D IRUHYHU KRPH Information is available through the Green Mountain Pug Rescue organization (GMPR.org), or you may contact Barbara, his foster person, at 802-349-8587.
