Bass, Burton get storm damage update from Gorham BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

GORHAM -- U.S. Congressman Charlie Bass and Executive Councilor Raymond Burton got a first hand report on the damage from Tropical Storm Irene which Gorham offi cials estimate at over $1 million. On a two day tour of the North Country, the pair met Thursday afternoon with Gorham town manager, Robin Frost, Emergency Management Director, Chad Miller, and Selectman David Graham. State Senator John Gallus (R-Berlin) also attended as did Gorham resident Don Provencher. Frost told Bass and Burton the storm had resulted in signifi cant infrastructure damage to the town’s roads as well as residential property. Miller said the Peabody and Moose Rivers, which he noted are both uncontrolled, fl ooded. The Peabody River caused the most damage, rendering White Birch Lane impassable. Stony Brook Road, Spring Road, Bangor

Road, Glen Road, Bell and Washington Streets were also damaged. The Moose River caused damage to the Lancaster Road and forced the evacuation of residents in Braeburn Village. The town estimates damage to its roads at over $1 million. Miller said the town will be seeking Federal Emergency Management Agency funding to repair the damage. In the past he said the federal government had picked up 75 percent of the cost with the state and local community splitting the remaining 25 percent. Miller said he hopes the state will still share in the cost. Bass said he was re-familiarizing himself with FEMA regulations. “We can’t ﬁx things but we can certainly help you with the administrative process,” he said. Miller said the ﬂ ooding has caused serious erosion and bank destabilization to the rivers, especially the Peabody. In some cases, banks have been reduced to two to three feet. He

said the state Department of Environmental Services is still assessing the damage but it will cost millions of dollars to make the Peabody River

safe. He said ﬁ xing the problem will be complicated, in part because the Peabody borders the White Mountain see UPDATE page 6

Fire at Smith hydroelectric plant knocks out power BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN -- A fi re yesterday morning at Public Service of N.H.’s Smith hydroelectric station knocked out power to about 5,000 customers for approximately two hours. Berlin Fire Chief Randall Trull said the department received a call at 9:54 a.m. Thursday, reporting a fire alarm had been activated at the plant at 99 Glen Avenue. Trull said an initial crew of six firefi ghters, including two trainees, responded to discover light smoke in the basement and a small fi re inside

at the back of the building. The response team called a general alarm and an additional ten ﬁ reﬁghters responded within 15 minutes. Because of the electrical equipment in the building, Trull said the crew initially attacked the blaze with carbon dioxide extinguishers until the electrical power was shut off. Once the power was off, he said the crews went in with hose lines. Electric service was temporarily shut off to part of the city and customers in Milan and Errol. Power was restored to all customers by 2 p.m. see FIRE page 10

Covered bridges, beloved remnants of another era, were casualties, too (NY TIMES) — As the country watched scenes of devastation from Hurricane Irene, thousands of history and engineering buffs were on edge for another reason, waiting to hear the fate of hundreds of antique covered bridges that dot the Eastern Seaboard and that are especially concentrated — and beloved — in the unexpectedly ravaged state of Vermont. Covered-bridge enthusiasts and others shuddered as they watched an amateur video, on the Internet, of the Bartonsville bridge in Vermont sliding almost intact into the Williams River on Sunday. Vermont ofﬁcials have found several other covered bridges, among the 100 or so statewide, that have been seriously damaged, but the loss of the Bartonsville bridge, built in 1871, with a wooden lattice spanning 158 feet, was considered the greatest historical blow. (Another badly damaged bridge, in Quechee, was covered but built of concrete in the 1970s.)

Relief in Vermont towns as crews make inroads ROCHESTER, Vt. (NY TIMES) — There is still no electricity in this town at the foot of the Green Mountains, but after days of being cut off from the world, there is a way out. Road crews had cleared enough of the wreckage on Wednesday to allow in utility trucks and emergency vehicles. Still, most of the 1,100 residents remained unable to come or go after Sunday’s devastating ﬂ oods. Many had made peace with it, for now. “Spirits are pretty good,” said Virginia Scott Bowman, who had joined dozens of

her neighbors at a community supper in the yard of a local inn before night fell. Many had contributed food from their powerless freezers for what has become a twilight ritual. A massage table had been set up, and children were playing Frisbee on the town green across the street. By Wednesday night, crews had completed makeshift roads into all of the isolated towns, state ofﬁ cials said. They reached the last, Wardsboro, population 850, in south central Vermont, just before 6 p.m. But the roads, some of which pass

through treacherous mountain landscape, are accessible only by all-terrain vehicles and four-wheel-drive trucks and cannot support regular trafﬁc, ofﬁcials said. On Thursday morning, Central Vermont Public Service, the state’s largest utility company, said only 5,900 of its customers remained without power, down from more than 73,000 just after the storm. In areas where bucket trucks cannot get through, workers are arriving on all-terrain vehicles and four-wheel-drive vehicles, the company said.

Rebels extend deadline as Iran trying to shelter its Qaddafi says he’ll resist nuclear fuel program TRIPOLI, Libya (NY TIMES) — The transitional government of Libya’s triumphant rebels decided Thursday to extend by up to a week the deadline given to Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi and his remaining fi ghters to surrender, but the fugitive leader rejected the ultimatum and raged at his enemies in a new broadcast that called for the country to be “engulfed in flames.” Colonel Qaddafi , whose whereabouts remained a mystery, delivered the screed in an audio message that was fi rst broadcast by Al Rai, a television channel in Syria that has often carried pro-Qaddafi news and

propaganda. It was not clear how the channel received Colonel Qaddafi ’s message — apparently his first after more than a week on the run — or whether it had been prerecorded. “We will fi ght the collaborators,” he said. “The Libyan people are not a herd of sheep. They are heavily armed.” Daring the rebels to fi nd him, he improbably predicted that Libyans would rise up and reject the new government as well as the NATO powers that have been bombing his forces for months under a United Nations mandate to protect civilians.

WASHINGTON (NY TIMES) — Iran is moving its most sensitive nuclear fuel production to a heavily defended underground military facility outside the holy city of Qum, where it is less vulnerable to attack from the air, and, the Iranians hope, to the kind of cyberattack that crippled its nuclear program, according to intelligence officials. The head of Iran’s atomic energy agency, Fereydoon Abbasi, spoke about the transfer in general terms on Monday to an official Iranian news service. He boasted that his country would produce the fuel in much larger quantities than it needs for a small research reactor in Tehran that produces medical isotopes. The fact that Iran is declaring that its production will exceed its needs has reinforced the suspicions of many American and European intelligence offi cials that Iran plans to use the fuel to build weapons or to train Iranian scientists in how to produce bomb-grade fuel.

A foot bridge spans the gap on Sawyer River bridge. (ERIK EISELE PHOTO)

Temporary foot bridge erected in Hart’s Location BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

HART’S LOCATION — A foot bridge spanned the gap between the Sawyer River bridge and the Route 302 pavement on Thursday, the ﬁ rst connection between Crawford Notch and the south since Irene blew through Sunday. “We haven’t been across it at all,” Robert Merrill said sitting in his car on the north side with his wife and daughter. A N.H. Department of Transportation crew was melted bolts out of a section of guardrail several hundred feet away, dismantling pieces leading up to the busted bridge. There was no easy way to get south the day before, when Merrill’s daughter Jessica had to clamber over the debris to make it to the ﬁ rst day of classes at Josiah Bartlett Elementary. “Walking in the ditch,” Merrill said. “Walking into the bridge, underneath, up and over.” “I didn’t think she was going to make it in at all,” Robert’s wife Sheila said from the passenger seat. “He was the last one to make it over this bridge before it went down.” That was Sunday, the last time there was direct automobile access from their house to town. Now they can drive there from the north.

“We’re a peninsula,” she said. The pedestrian bridge — essentially a latter laid horizontal with decking and handrails — is a shortterm solution to make it easier for people like Jessica to travel back and forth. It doesn’t resolve the problem, however. For that they need a vehicle on the other side. “Here’s the plan,” Josiah Bartlett Elementary School principal Joe Voci said as he stepped out of the minischool bus that pulled up to the south side of the bridge promptly at 8:30 a.m. “This is Ricky. He’s going to be the driver.” Ricky will drive Jessica from the bridge to school, Voci told the Merrills, and they need to be there to meet him every morning and every afternoon. “We’ll try to get up as far as we can.” The Merrills are the only family the bus picked up. “This is what we do,” Voci said. “We’ve got to get them to school.” The state patched 302 north of the bridge with dirt, building it into a single lane, but there is still no way to get a car south of the Sawyer River without driving around Mount Washington. “I’m sitting here laughing now,” Sheila Merrill said, “but I’ve been frantic ever since the storm happened.”

Thanks for your help with Operation Gratitude To the editor: Dear Mr. Paul Poulin, Mr. Leo Poulin, P & L Auto Parts, Jericho Road, Berlin: Thank you so much for your assistance with my project for Operation Gratitude. As you know, our troops are working tirelessly to protect our freedom. Receiving a care package, such as the ones you helped me ship, might bring a smile or a tear to someone in our armed forces. With the generous sup-

port of people like you, we will be able to let some of these soldiers think of home and remind them that we are thinking of them and what they are doing for us. By allowing me to ship these packages from your company I was able to save a considerable amount of money. Your support to me goes beyond words. Thank you once again. Nicholas D. Grifﬁn Berlin

Vet-to-Vet Program kicks off on Tuesday, Sept. 6, at FRC GORHAM -- A group of local concerned veterans are going to begin holding meetings at the Family Resource Center, 123 Main St., Gorham, NH, with the intention of helping other veterans ﬁ nd solutions to issues, or who just feel like they would like to talk to somebody who can understand them. These meetings will be open to veterans regardless of whether they saw combat or not, from all years of service, both male and female.

They will be held the ﬁ rst and third Tuesday evening of each month, beginning at 6:30 p.m. (In September they will meet on the 6, and 20, of the month.) The facilitators for these gatherings have diverse backgrounds and served during different conﬂicts and in several different branches of the service, but they have a common concern for the welfare and well-being of all veterans from the Armed see VET-TO-VET page 5

Frank Bruni The New York Times

Sorry, Wrong In-Box The other night I did something silly. In a hurry to reach my friend K., I made the mistake of calling him on his mobile phone. “You should have texted,” he chided me the next morning, when he finally heard the voice mail I’d left. “You know that’s the fastest way.” It’s hard to keep track. Because my friend A., who frequently sends text messages, somehow fails to recognize that she might receive them as well and almost never checks. With her, I’m supposed to call. But not with my friend D. Between his two mobile phones, two offi ce phones and one home phone, you can never know which number to try, and he seems never to pick up, anyway. E-mail is his preference. He has three e-mail addresses, at least that I know about, but I’ve fi gured out the best one. I think. You hear so much about how instantly reachable we all are, how hyperconnected, with our smartphones, laptops, tablets and such. But the maddening truth is that we’ve become so accessible we’re often inaccessible, the process of getting to any of us more tortured and tortuous than ever. There are up to a dozen possible routes, and the direct one versus the scenic one versus the loop-de-loop versus the dead end changes from person to person. If you’re not dealing with your closest business associates or friends, whose territory and tics you’ve presumably learned, you’re lost. There are some people partial to direct messages on Twitter and others oblivious to that corner of the Twitterverse. There are some who look at Facebook messages before anything else, and others whose Facebook accounts are idle, deceptive vestiges of a fl eeting gregariousness that didn’t survive their boredom with Rebecca’s bread dough (“It isn’t rising! Tips?”) or Tim’s poison ivy (“Itching and itching! Remedies?”). I know only a handful of people with just one e-mail address, but I know many with three or more, and not all of these people understand automatic forwarding. My friend M. was recently reacquainted with an in-box unattended for a year. It was stuffed with hundreds of unread messages — some, remarkably, from people fl ummoxed by her aloofness. During a cyberbinge a few years back, I set up three new, uncoordinated e-mail accounts, though I’m not entirely sure why. Maybe I had some vague notion that I’d be a

subtly different person with a subtly different life on each. In fact, I remained the same person with the same life on the same two e-mail accounts I was already using, and that person couldn’t remember the passwords or user names for the additional ones. My debit-card P.I.N. is challenge enough. Recently, I missed an interview because I was 20 minutes late and the subject assumed I was a no-show. I’d been texting her about my delay because we’d communicated that way before. But it turns out that she has two mobile phones, and was monitoring the one whose number I didn’t know. Meanwhile, she was sending me e-mails, but it didn’t occur to me to look for those. Speaking of interviews, Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, arrived for one two years ago with four BlackBerrys. Maybe it was some elaborate anti-hacking system, a Murdoch Defense Shield. Communication can become a multistep, multiplatform process. My friend J. and I like to talk on the phone, but only after she has sent me a gmail to propose a gchat, during which we determine if a call is actually warranted and whether I should use her home, mobile, main offi ce or satellite offi ce number. By the time voice meets voice, we’re spent. There’s a lot of heavy breathing; none of it the fun kind. To her egalitarian credit, she gives out all of her contact information freely. Others use theirs to create castes of acquaintances: those with only an outer layer of business coordinates; those with “private e-mail” penetration; and those with the vaunted home phone. I’m no longer sure why I have a home phone, whose voice mail I neglect. A message from my friend L. languished there for two weeks. She really should have e-mailed. Newly minted relationships come with operating instructions. “Try his cell fi rst, then shoot him an e-mail,” says a bigwig’s assistant. “Or circle back to me. Here’s my cell, and my e-mail, and ...” Contact information is now contact exegesis. And contact itself is subject to infi nite vagaries. An e-mail can go to spam. A call can bump up against a voice mailbox not taking new messages. Its owner, managing too many mailboxes, has let it fill. My friend E. just texted, two days after my text. “Didn’t see it,” she reports. “On this new phone, I can’t figure anything out.” In this new world, neither can I.

Hampshire advantage. Here at the Department of Labor, we strive to ensure that both sides of that partnership—workers and their bosses—treat each other fairly, obey the law and celebrate great accomplishments. Our Department’s mission statement is clear and concise: to serve and protect the interests and dignity of the New Hampshire workforce. Our duty is to be sure the protections built into the law—wage payments, safety, compensation for work injuries—are provided when due. And we assure that every employer gets a level business playing ﬁeld because its competitors cannot skirt these laws. In this way, we protect the interests of both workers and businesses. When both sides know the laws are enforced fairly, then both sides can concentrate on the industry and commercial success of their enterprise. Our Workers Compensation Division administers and enforces the many provisions of the workers compensation law while our Inspection Division answers an average of 2,000 calls and emails a week related to labor law questions. We are also dedicated to reducing the number of workrelated injuries by helping employers to provide a safer workplace. The Labor Department is now

Forest on one side. Miller said nothing will happen before next spring. With most flooding happening in the fall, he said the town will be on alert. Miller said the town came as close as possible to losing the bridge next to Irving’s gas station and the Gorham fire station. He said water started peeling back from the bridge. With both Route 2 in Shelburne and Route 16 in Pinkham Notch closed, the village would have been isolated if that had occurred. Two home owners have concerns about moving back into their homes, feeling the situation is unstable. Miller said they wonder if there is an option to have the government purchase their homes. Miller said he doesn’t believe there was any flooding from the Androscoggin River. He said flows in the river were increased two days before the Tropical Storm Irene to provide capacity in the system. Town officials reported the Androscoggin Valley Country Club incurred significant damage and a bridge washed out in the Dolly Copp campground. Pinkham Notch Road B is indefinitely closed. Great Glen Trails and the Mount Washington Auto Road also received considerable damage. N.H. Commissioner of Resources and Economic Development George

Bald, WMNF Supervisor Tom Wagner, and representatives from a number of state agencies will meet with town officials Wednesday, Sept. 7 at 11 a.m. at town hall to talk about the aftermath of the storm. Selectman David Graham asked Bass to help get the federal prison in Berlin open and to help get passenger rail service between Portland and Montreal. Bass said he and the rest of the state Congressional delegation are working hard to get the prison open this fall. He said it is not a simple process because of the change in rules on earmarks. He assured town officials the federal prison is a top priority. The congressman said said if the local rail task force can come up with a plan for passenger service, he is willing to help. But he warned it will have to be a unique plan and said there is no way Congress would agreed to “Amtrak it”. He also said liability insurance is an issue the group will have to deal with. Graham asked Burton about moving up the planned paving of Main Street and pushing the completion of the Conway bypass. Burton noted the Governor’s Advisory Committee on Intermodal Transportation will be holding a public hearing on the updated 10-Year Transportation Plan in Berlin on Sept. 26 at 7:30 p.m. at

the city hall auditorium. Burton said he is always looking to recommend District I residents for positions in state government and on state boards and commission. He reported that Public Utilities Commissioner Clifton Below has said he does not wish to be reappointed when his term expires this year. Burton said Gov. Lynch will be

looking for a replacement for what Burton called one of the most powerful positions in state government. Burton reported that former State Forester Phil Bryce has been conﬁrmed at the new head of Parks and Recreation for the state. Bryce previously worked in the woodlands department for James River and lived in Milan.

charge of theft by misapplication. As a result of the plea agreement, the felony charge, which was prosecuted by Assistant Attorney General Walter Pazdon, was dropped to misdemeanor level and a sentence of 12 months in jail was suspended for two years. The suspension is contingent on Vaillancourt-Lock making a good-faith effort to pay restitution of $8,000 within two years directly to Catholic Charities. According to court documents, Vaillancourt-Locke misappropriated monthly social security checks, VA pension checks and private pension checks belonging to Raymond Vaillancourt, without paying for his care at St. Vincent de Paul rehab and Nursing Center. In order to secure payment Bornstein placed a lien on any real estate owned by Vaillancourt-Locke.

As part of the plea agreement, Anderson will serve 12 months for the second degree assault charge, and an additional 12 months for the aggravated felonious sexual assault. He was placed on probation for two years, ordered to pay restitution of not more than $1,000 and complete a sex offender program immediately upon release. For the kidnapping, Anderson was sentenced to ﬁ ve to 10 years in prison, all suspended on the condition of good behavior. The prison sentence will run concurrent to the two 12 month terms.

A series of community forums will be held throughout the fall to gather citizen input as to the future of Education in the Androscoggin Valley. The forums will support a facilitated discussion to address future educational needs of our children. New ideas will be generated that may help lead us to maximize collaboration among local school districts and ensure the best opportunities for our students, both now and in the future. We hope to capture a shared vision of education in the Androscoggin Valley. How do we share resources in delivering programs and nurture a new culture of collaboration? What about regionalization of our schools? Early childhood education? How do we address the shrinking student populations and dwindling financial resources in order to give our children the best education possible? In collaboration, SAU 20 and SAU 3 were awarded a grant from the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation to conduct the community forums. Citizens are encouraged to attend any and all forums in order to speak, listen and shape the future of education in the Androscoggin Valley!

FIRE from page one

The fire was determined to have been in the electronic switching gear. PSNH said it had crews at the scene assessing the damage yesterday afternoon. The company said the station is normally unmanned and no personnel were there when the fire broke out. Berlin firefighters remained on the scene until just before 1 p.m. Trull called it “a very dangerous fire” because of the electrical equipment in the station. “The crews did a really good job. They worked hard,” he said. Trull said the department also had good support. He said New England Security provided additional extinguishers and Munce’s Konvenience on Pleasant Street sent over water and food. Berlin Police and Emergency Medical Service also responded. While the fire department was working the fire, it also responded to an elevator rescue at Northern Lites housing complex.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston by Scott Adams

DILBERT

by Darby Conley

By Holiday Mathis of your energy now so you can do what you know you’re meant to do. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Businesses and people around you hype their assets and rattle on about what they can do. You have the sneaking suspicion that it can’t all be true. You’ll take a more modest approach, and people will respond to you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You never know when someone is falling for you. All the signs are there, but you’re too active and involved in your world to wonder what others think about you. That’s part of what makes you so charismatic. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19 ). Your encouragement and interest will inspire someone to keep going. These qualities, as well as your patience and love, are the most signifi cant gifts you can give to others. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have an increasing power to heal with your thoughts. You also have the potential to hurt with them. So be mindful and use your new level of influence well. PISCES (Feb. 19 -March 20). Your environment will refl ect your gentleness, softness and kindness to others. There is a strength in this tone that is far greater than the loud aggression that sometimes goes on in the world. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 2). Put yourself in physically different situations -- you’ll shine as a newcomer. This month, you’ll take action and gain recognition for your talent and ability. Children fi gure into your work. Teaching will bring excitement to your world. Now, November and January are the best months for business. Cancer and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 1, 42, 31 and 17.

Get Fuzzy

HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19 ). You possess remarkable powers, both visual and social. You’ll create pictures in your mind of you in a not-so-distant future, having a ball with the people you most want to know. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Spend some time fi guring out what you really want. When you’re not sure, you can’t help but send out a mixed signal. Who knows what you’ll bring back? It’s like casting a fi shing line out with pizza for bait. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s a so-called Chinese “curse” that sounds suspiciously like a blessing: “May you live in interesting times and attract the attention of important people.” Enter gingerly into potentially ego-infl ating situations. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know exactly why a scenario is not working out the way you want it to. One powerful person stands in the way -- or rather, it is this person’s beliefs that thwart your effort. This belief can change with the right persuasion. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are many ways to go about your work, some of them much more expensive than others. Investigate your options. Liking a person is not a good enough reason to employ him or her. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You strive to be your best in every situation, but the fact remains that some situations will bring out a less than optimum side of you. That’s why it’s important to get plenty of rest and give yourself every advantage. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Someone has borrowed a part of you as though you were a book, and it is now time to call that part of you back. You need all

VOLATILE SISTER HAS TO BE STOPPED BEFORE SHE HURTS SON

DEAR ABBY: I have a sister I love dearly. “Thea” is married to a wonderful man, and they have a 3-year-old son I love as if he were my own. My problem is Thea has a nasty, violent temper, and she doesn’t hesitate to use it toward the boy. Recently when he was overtired and needed to go to bed, Thea said he “knows better than to push me by throwing a tantrum.” She then threatened to “beat him bloody” if he didn’t “shut up” and go to sleep. Abby, she had already swatted his behind to the point that he could no longer stand up. This feels like abuse to me. When I suggested that perhaps Thea should try to calm down before she hits him (more than she already had), she threw me out of her house! I am terrified that this may be happening more often than I realize. But what if what I witnessed was just an isolated incident? If I act on it, I may never have a relationship with my sister again. What (if anything) can I do? I’m worried for the safety of my nephew, but I don’t want to cause a rift I can’t mend. -MIDWEST AUNTIE DEAR AUNTIE: It appears your sister has serious anger issues and lacks parenting skills. A mother who “swats” her child to the point that he can no longer stand IS an abuser, and she needs an intervention before her child is seriously hurt. Because Thea’s reaction when you tried to intervene and calm her down was to throw you out of the house, the next step is to call Childhelp USA. The toll-free number is 800-422-4453. Your call will be kept confidential and a counselor can guide you further. Please don’t procrastinate. DEAR ABBY: My fi ance, “Roger,” died recently. I am

working through the devastating grief of his passing, but the core of my pain was listening to the eulogies at his funeral. I expected Roger’s friends and family to share happy memories and celebrate the best of his life. However, many of those who spoke -- including his granddaughter -- chose to remember him as a notorious womanizer both while his wife was alive and after her death. Stories were shared about how he constantly hit on much younger women, including his daughter’s childhood friends. One “gentleman” even shared an “amusing” anecdote about how he and Roger found out they were sleeping with the same woman. I knew about Roger’s past before he met me and I managed to come to terms with it, but I did not expect it to be brought up as entertainment at his memorial. I also thought it to be inappropriate with his late wife’s family in attendance. Now my memories are tainted, and I feel dirty and used. I live 500 miles from Roger’s home and will probably never see those people again. What can I do to get over this anger that continues to haunt me? -- STILL IN MOURNING DEAR STILL MOURNING: A eulogy is usually a respectful recapitulation of the deceased’s life story, which includes loving memories, lessons taught, examples set by the person. What happened at the funeral was an indication that Roger left behind bitter memories that were voiced by those who spoke. How sad for all concerned. However, this has nothing to do with you and your relationship with Roger. And the quickest way to work through your feelings would be to practice forgiveness and go on with your life -- in which Roger was just a chapter.

International Coin Collectors Assoc. to host special event in Gorham GORHAM – Currently on a global tour, the International Coin Collectors Association (ICCA) will be making a stop in Gorham, New Hampshire at the Town and Country Inn, located at 20 US Route 2, on Tuesday, September 6, through Saturday, September 10. The show hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday. The ICCA will be purchasing coins, paper currency, gold and silver on behalf of their global network of collectors, dealers and reﬁ neries. This special event is free and open to the public. ICCA spokesman Mark Cooper says, “We hope to spend at least $250,000 while we are in town, purchasing people’s old coin collections, vintage bank notes and scrap gold and silver. It’s been all over the news – gold and silver are trading at record highs – and people everywhere are scrambling to cash in. We buy a lot of class rings, mismatched earrings and broken necklaces. Just a small handful of gold can add up to hundreds of dollars very quickly.” Cooper continues, “Old coins are also very valuable. An ultra-rare 1894 S Barber dime sold for a whopping $1.9 million in 2007. We recently paid $120,000 for a coin collection in N.C. and even $300 for a single penny in Ga. I encourage everyone to clean out their drawers, lock boxes, jewelry boxes and bring their items to our show for a free evaluation and perhaps walk out a little richer!” Traveling from small towns to large cities, the

ICCA hosts hundreds of events each year where local residents are encouraged to bring in their precious metals, old coins and paper money to earn extra cash. While meeting one-on-one with each guest, the ICCA specialists review, research and evaluate the items and will make an offer to purchase all gold coins, silver coins made before 1965 and paper money printed prior to 1934. The amount of the offer depends on the silver or gold content, the collectability, the rarity and the con-

dition of the items. If the guest decides to accept the offer made, a check will be issued on the spot. Parent company of the ICCA, THR & Associates is the largest and most-successful company of its kind in the world. On the leading edge of the precious metals, antiquities and collectibles industries, THR & Associates is headquartered in Springﬁeld, Ill. with bases in Canada and Europe.

Register today to become a hospice volunteer BERLIN -- Androscoggin Valley Hospital Home Health and Hospice Services is offering a hospice volunteer training program beginning October 3, through October 26, on Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6 to 8 p.m. at Androscoggin Valley Hospital. The program is free and open to anyone in the community who is interested in becoming a hospice volunteer or who would like to learn more about end-of-life issues and care. For those unfamiliar with hospice, it provides comprehensive, coordinated, compassionate care to the terminally ill and their families. The goal is to improve quality of life by providing integrated services that respond to physiological, sociological, educational, spiritual, and emotional needs of the client and family during the ﬁnal stages of life and the bereavement that follows. Typically, care is provided in the patient’s home, but can also be administered at a hospital, nursing home, or private hospice facility. Volunteers provide all kinds of support for patients and their families. When assigned to a family, volunteers visit on a weekly basis, generally contributing two to four hours a week, and may provide support services such as companionship, active listening, bedside sitting and reading. They may share hobbies and special interests such as music, sports, travel and crafts, and may assist with errands such as grocery shopping, picking up prescriptions, or with transportation to a doctor’s appointment. No task is too big or too small

for a hospice volunteer. One of the most important things a hospice volunteer can do is to just “be there” for patients to reassure them that they are not alone, whether it is to hold a hand, offer a smile, or just listen. Hospice volunteers report having a sense of deep personal satisfaction in being there for someone during their ﬁnal journey in life. “I often hear volunteers say they get more from volunteering than what they give,” says Edwina Keene, AVH volunteer coordinator. AVH Home Health and Hospice Services also offers Vigil Services which provide a range of volunteer support from several hours a day to fulltime attendance. This depends on the needs of the family and the availability of volunteers on the Vigil Team. A Vigil is offered to a family during the “ﬁnal days” of life. “If you have some free time and enjoy helping others, you may want to consider participating in the Hospice Volunteer Training Program to learn if this is something you’d like to do,” said Keene. “People participate in the program for different reasons. It may be personal, work related, or to become a volunteer. Regardless of the reason, we are happy to have you join us.” For an application or more information, please call Edwina Keene at 326-5676 or email edwina. keene@avhnh.org. Applications are being accepted through September 21. AVH is “Leading the Way to a Healthier Future.”
