Pet owners honor beloved veterinarian with plaque By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff
SOUTHINGTON — Pet owners will honor a local veterinarian with a granite plaque near the town’s dog park. Toby Kimm, a veterinarian who opened Ragged Mountain Animal Hospital in Plainville, died in January at the age of 63. Owners of the animals he’s helped over the decades planned to gather near the dog park last weekend to install the granite plaque with his likeness on it.
In addition to being a skilled veterinarian, pet owners said Kimm, a Southington resident, was a kind and generous man who would do anything for his clients “It’s like losing a member of our family,” Mary Sargent said of his death. She’s a dog owner and along with Heide Kapral and others is organizing Saturday’s tribute. “Hundreds and hundreds of people feel the same way.” See Veterinarian, A27

Salvation Army preps for ‘above-normal’ hurricane season
“All of our local operations
have been in disaster response mode since the pandemic began last year,” said Major Debra Ashcraft, Divisional Commander of The Salvation Army’s Southern New England Division. “As we continue to serve our neighbors, we are also preparing our teams to be ready if storms should come our way. We certainly pray for peace and safety.” Salvation Army locations throughout Connecticut are available to prepare individual meals as well as support with bulk/shelf stable food
product. This will enable The Salvation Army to support multiple housing and feeding options. Salvation Army locations are also preparing to support with emergency assistance needs such as clothing, hygiene kits, and cleanup kits as needed. “We are continuing to prepare our trained Disaster Response Teams,” said Chris Farrand, Regional Director of Emergency Disaster Services for The Salvation Army’s Southern New England and Massachusetts divisions. “We are ready to respond locally
as well as deploy to areas in the south, if needed. Our EDS teams are also well-prepared to apply CDC pandemic procedures in the event of a hurricane response.”
The Salvation Army’s Emergency Disaster Services is continuing in conversation and planning with local, state and federal Emergency Management and is also prepared to stage assets and resources in locations near potential impact zones that can increase the speed and efficiency of mobilization.

Additional tips for keeping temperatures and energy costs down in the summer. Keep air conditioners set at or near 78 degrees: This is a generally comfortable temperature that requires less energy to reach and maintain than cooler temperatures. For every degree higher on the thermostat, the air conditioner will use 1-3 percent less electricity. Don’t block air flow: Keep air vents clear of obstructions such as furniture, curtains, and rugs. For those with central air and floor vents, consider using vent deflectors to direct and increase the reach of cooled air.

Switch to LED lights: The energy efficient bulbs run cooler and last up to 25 times longer than incandescent lights.

PRIDE MONTH
Join us as we celebrate Pride Month in June with the LGBTQ+ community. Gay pride or LGBTQ+ pride is all about self-affirmation, dignity, equality and bringing visibility to a wide range of identities – lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, and intersex individuals. Our special section in June will put the spotlight on our local Pride, the progress, personalities and pageantry. The RJ Media group is and has always been dedicated to diversity. We have a long tradition in reporting the facts in an unbiased manner. We are proud of our 154 year history as Central Connecticut’s leading news source.

When you see signs around the community with the name “Doreen Corriveau” you may recognize it. Receiving my real estate license in 2002 I focus on working in the Central CT area. I am a true professional with many years of experience. I will negotiate the best deal for you. I am a full time agent and respected by fellow constituents. I have vast knowledge of new construction, being married over 33 years to a General Contractor, experienced in both Customer Building and Remodeling. As a top Realtor, I pride myself with all aspects of the business - working with Buyers, Sellers, New Construction and Relocation. My greatest success is that I continue to receive referrals from many previous clients that were satisfied with my service and have no doubt in referring me to their friends, family members and colleagues.
Doreen is the absolute best person to have as your real estate advocate. We contacted her to get a comparative market analysis. We listed our home at the price she recommended and sold for a tremendous profit. She then helped us purchase a new home for a great price. Doreen knows all of the right people in the industry to make your buying and selling experience seamless. The only hiccups we had in our move was when we didn’t listen to her advice and recommendations. She is thorough and professional and her attention to detail is unmatched. She is always available and when she takes much deserved time off (which is rare) she communicates all of that ahead of time. From start to finish and even after, she will see you through a stressful process with ease. We consider ourselves fortunate to have been represented by her. Carolyn W Cronkhite

PLAINVILLETimothy John Fascendini, 35 of Plainville, devoted son, father, brother and friend, left us unexpectedly and far too soon on Wednesday, May 26, 2021. Born in New Britain on June 12, 1985, he was one of four children of John and Margaret “Meg” (Coughlin) Fascendini. A lifelong resident, Tim was a 2003 graduate of Plainville High School and familiar face at Gnazzo’s where he has worked since the age of 16, most recently as the friendly well-known butcher and award winning wing specialist. He never met a food he didn’t like and loved to experiment with new recipes, which were typically hot and spicy (much like his sense of humor!) His kind and caring personality found him pursuing a career in nursing, training in the field of Practical Nursing at Lincoln Tech in New Britain. A Red Sox fan and avid reader, Tim’s greatest joy was being a fun-loving and devoted father to his boys who were his world. He enjoyed bowling and playing catch with his sons and of course video games and reading with them. Gone but never to be forgotten, his presence will be felt through his children, family and friends, all who will miss him beyond measure. In addition to his parents, he leaves his sons, Evan,

PLAINVILLE Paul Raymond Olson, age 54, passed away at sunrise on Saturday, the 15th of May 2021, after enduring a courageous and ceaseless struggle against a rare complication of hereditary kidney disease. Paul drew inspiration and strength from those who predeceased him, including parents Norman E. Olson and Plainville schoolteacher Mary (Rizza) Olson, and his sister Shirley Jean, whom he held in great reverence. Paul is survived by his devoted and heartbroken partner of 34 years, James Borck; sister Norma Olson-Bartley and her husband Michael Bartley; and his beloved nieces, Caitlin and Emma Bartley, with whom he cherished a very special bond. A lifelong resident of Plainville, Paul graduated from Plainville High School in 1985. He went on to work alongside his father at the family business, R.P. Olson and Sons, before thriving at Cigna on the facilities management team. A calm and thoughtful man, Paul’s kindness and positivity powered a megawatt smile. Friends close to him were charmed by his delightfully wry and genial wit. And those even closer knew the fun had just begun if you could coax Paul to break out his childhood accordion! In his younger days Paul showed horses, but he was forever a dog’s best friend - providing shelter and love to the countless rescue dogs he and Jim welcomed into their family
during their years together. Paul gave generously of himself to anyone in need, and was a charitable supporter of PBS, the PKD Foundation, and Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine. Paul will be remembered as someone who lived his life with pride and a determination of spirit, even in the face of hardship. He enriched our lives with his unquestionable love of family, an acceptance of everyone, and a warmth more stellar than the Hawaiian sunsets he so loved to visit. Paul advised us that life should be lived along lines written in “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.” Be aware of wonder. Say you’re sorry when you hurt someone. And when you go out into the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands, and always stick together. Most importantly, have fun. Condolences may be sent to: Borck (POB 623, Plainville) and Bartley (5 Timber Hill Rd, Plainville). A celebration of Paul’s life will be held for friends under separate invitation.

originally discussed bill last week. It took the House Democrats’ hesitation to take up the bill to signify that this measure goes too far. So, while it took an unorthodox method to bring this policy to at least an improved place, I suppose the end justifies the means. Perhaps this will encourage Senate Democrats to give more consideration to alternative points of view in future discussions.”
Years ago, Sargent heard her dog’s knee pop and knew something was wrong. It was a Sunday afternoon but she had Kimm’s cell phone number and he picked up, telling her to meet him at the clinic. After taking X-rays, Kimm did surgery that afternoon. “He didn’t charge us a cent,” she said. “That’s just how he was, he was generous to a fault.” When she heard about Kimm’s death, Sargent looked into getting a plaque and putting it up near the Southington dog park. Sargent runs the Little Free Library near the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail and the dog park and plans to put the plaque on the back of the little library.
Granite etching Plaques turned out to be expensive, Sargent said, and out of her price range. However Sherri Sciola, a funeral director at Della Vecchia Funeral Home, saw Sargent’s post.
Toby Kimm
Caring for people, animals Sciola said Kimm would sometimes go to people’s houses if their dog needed to be put down, allowing for a more comfortable setting than the clinic. Laural Huggler, a veterinarian technician at the clinic, said she saw lots of acts like that over the past few decades. She described Kimm as an extremely intelligent and compassionate doctor. “He cared about a lot of people. He did a lot for people.” Huggler said. “He cared about the animals… He liked what he did and he did it very well.”
The Little Free Library near the dog park is Snoopythemed and Kimm’s plaque will face the park. “I think it’s a great tribute to him, being near the dog park and the little snoopy library,” Sciola said.

mockery of victims' rights in the state." If Lamont signs the bill into law, the changes would take effect on Jan. 1, 2023. Lamont has voiced some concern about the legislation and what crimes would be expunged, but said Thursday, May 27 he wanted to review the changes made to the bill, reiterating that he agrees with the bill’s intent to give people another chance.
“And I am very disappointed that this legislature would move forward with legislation such as this that really, I think, tramples and makes a

She contacted a company that works with the funeral home and was able to get a granite plaque with Kimm’s face etched on it. Sciola’s dog was also a patient of Kimm’s and she had helped the Kimm family with arrangements when he died. Due to the pandemic, the service was limited.
Speaking to the judiciary committee, state Rep. William A. Petit Jr. (R22) said, “I'm concerned that the committee's cherry-picking offenses ... when it's alright to walk over the rights, feelings and mental health of victims. 'It's okay, you only committed this crime’; though there's a victim who is
impacted. This one it's okay to walk on their rights and walk on what they've suffered and walk on how this has impacted them. This one, it's not okay to do that. So the cherry-picking, I think, is going on with just the creation of a bill that doesn't put victims' rights at the forefront. And puts the people who committed the crime at the forefront.
