Scott Vogel By Nancye Tuttle, Staff Writer OGUNQUIT Restaurateur Scott Vogel brims with optimistic goodwill these days, especially when he talks about the restaurant industry and Ogunquit’s place in that topsy-turvy world. And that’s saying something in this year of the pandemic. “I feel very optimistic about Ogunquit and the restaurant industry as a whole,” Vogel said. “The pandemic has been the toughest challenge for any restaurant in existence, but we are all better organizations, top

to bottom, because of the challenges we have faced.” Despite COVID-19’s onslaught last March, The Front Porch, his Shore Road piano bar-restaurant, survived over the past twelve months. Vogel and his team offered reasonably priced, oven-ready, take-out meals and delivery service to customers and launched a dinner donation program, with other restaurants, that provided 1,000 free meals to seniors through the local Rotary Club and Senior Center. “Our focus is always on how we as a restaurant can

support our community,” said Vogel, noting that the free meals will continue. The pandemic did not dim Vogel’s hope for the future either, and he’ll soon realize his dream to own another restaurant. Later this spring, he’ll open Crew OGT in the former Bessie’s across the street from The Front Porch. Vogel, 30, has wanted to expand his restaurant business for a while, and the conversation to purchase Bessie’s began through his long-term friendship with its owners Don Wunder and Jim Oliver.

“Ogunquit has a great downtown with many dining and entertainment options, and I love being in this business here. But I saw the need for more and was looking. I have a great team and the time is right,” said Vogel. Crew OGT will have a different look and feel than the more classic Front Porch, he noted. The 100-seat restaurant, with standing room at each bar, will have an “urban influence and foodie vibe,” he said. See VOGEL page 4...

Maine Adopts Age-Based Approach to Vaccine Eligibility AUGUSTA In an effort to save lives and ensure that health care providers can efficiently and quickly vaccinate as many people as possible, Governor Janet Mills announced that Maine will adopt an age-based approach to expanding vaccine eligibility. As a result, beginning Wednesday, March 3, Maine will expand eligibility for the vaccine to those 60 years and older. The update to Maine’s vaccination strategy, decided

in consultation with the Maine Department of Health and Human Services and the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, reflects recent scientific data indicating that age is among the strongest predictors of whether an individual is likely to get seriously ill and die from COVID-19, even more so than risk factors such as underlying medical conditions. The straightforward strategy also replaces the prospect

of complicated eligibility rules based on types of work and medical conditions that would

be difficult to implement and verify. Such rules could inadvertently slow down the process of getting shots into the arms of Maine people, a critical goal to limit the spread of new COVID19 variants. Instead, this clear approach provides a greater measure of certainty and predictability that allows all Maine people to know when they will be eligible for vaccination and is easier to implement and verify for health care providers.

The planned schedule, which is subject to change depending on fluctuations in vaccine supply including an acceleration if supply increases, is as follows: March 3: Eligibility expands to residents age 60 and older; April: Eligibility expands to age 50 and older; May: Eligibility expands to age 40 and older; June: Eligibility expands to age 30 and older; July and See AGE page 16...

Dream Factory Working Overtime in York YORK COUNTY The Dream Factory is an all volunteer at the chapter level, non-profit organization that grants dreams for critically and chronically ill children ages 3-18. They have 35+ chapters throughout the country and headquarters in Louisville, KY. The fulfillment of dreams is not based on financial need and their gift of a dream is not given as charity. They do what they can to make a child and his/her family take time to focus their attention on something other than the illness which they face daily.

The local York chapter was forced to cancel a comedy show, annual golf tournament, selling fried dough at Harvest Fest, and many others. Having no fundraisers, means no money coming in, and no money, means no dreams being granted. As a small, local chapter, this has had a serious impact and sadly, several dreams have had to be put on hold. See DREAM page 2... Have you seen our

Women Build Week at Habitat for Humanity

KENNEBUNK Habitat for Humanity’s International Women Build Week is an annual weeklong event created by Habitat’s Women Build program in partnership with Lowe’s and is held March 8-15, leading up to International Women’s Day. Habitat for Humanity York County will be joining the Women Build Week celebration!

Basement Waterproofing Basement Structural Repairs Basement Sump Pumps Basement Humidity & Mold Control ...and Nasty Crawl Spaces too!

As part of this special week, and because of restrictions due to COVID-19, there will be a week of virtual programming and using it as a peer-to-peer fundraising effort for an upcoming Saco Build. The theme of the week will be Women Building Up Women. The schedule includes a virtual event to which registrants will have access to a week of Women Building Up Women events including Meet the Homeowner, Keynote Speakers including a message from Governor Janet Mills, a special Zoom Advocacy Event, Zoom Yoga, Green Building and more How-to Videos from women of Maine. At Habitat for Humanity, they advocate to change policies and systems so to eliminate barriers to adequate, affordable housing. Building is part of the solu-

tion, but the less visible aspects of housing like laws, regulations, systems and rules about land and the built environment are critical components, too. Sustainable and inclusive policies and systems can promote access to decent housing, while others can create barriers. And those barriers make it harder to find land for construction, build a home or be able to afford a place to live. Habitat’s approach to advocacy is based on decades of on-the-ground experience and policy expertise. From our deep understanding of housing and its central role in providing opportunities for families, we work to reform laws in a non-confrontational, nonpartisan way. Habitat has helped families build strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter for more than four decades. Since its founding in 1976, Habitat has served millions of people, and there’s no question that their work has made a significant impact throughout the world. To learn more, go to www.habitatyorkcounty.org.

...DREAM from page 1 In a time when all seems so uncertain and the fundraising ideas are limited, York’s Dream Factory is excited to announce that local Maine author Jody Clark has agreed to partner with their chapter for the month of March, with 50% of his book sales benefiting the Dream Factory of Maine, York Chapter. Jody Clark grew up in the Kittery/York area of southern Maine. He originally started out as a screenwriter, and has written nine feature-length screenplays. His ultimate goal was not to just sell his scripts, but to have them filmed right here in the great state of Maine. After several years and failed attempts, due to financial and logistical obstacles, he has now begun turning his screenplays into novels with hopes of just getting his stories out for the public to enjoy. Jody has currently selfpublished seven books, from silly comedies – to dark dramas – to the dramedies in between; his stories are filled with simple plots, believable dialogue, and relatable characters. Not only

did Jody grow up in Maine, but he makes it a point to utilize and represent his state as much as possible. The Dream Factory of Maine, York Chapter greatly appreciates Jody Clark’s willingness to collaborate and help us raise funds to continue to grant dreams. To help support the Dream Factory and to purchase a copy of one of Jody Clark’s books, go to www.vacationlandbooks. com, make a book selection, and choose “Signed Copy”. To learn more about The Dream Factory, or if you would like to find out about volunteer opportunities, know a child who may be eligible for a dream, or would like to make a financial contribution, visit www.dreamfactoryinc.org, email maine@ dreamfactoryinc.org, or call 207216-2160.

WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senator Angus King (I-ME), ranking member of Senate Energy and Natural Resources Subcommittee on National Parks, and Congressman Jared Golden (D-ME) announced that their legislation to make national parks free for Gold Star Families has been enacted into law after Congress voted on a widely bipartisan basis. The law allows free access to America’s National Parks and federal recreation sites for families of service-members

who have died in the line of duty while serving in the military. “America’s Gold Star families have made unimaginable sacrifices for the safety of our nation, and they deserve our utmost support as they heal,” said Senator King. “These American treasures are sources of peace for many, providing vital sanctuaries for those who wish to connect with the world around them.” “A constituent came to my

office with the suggestion for this policy and we worked to make it a reality,” said Congressman Golden. Specifically, the legislation makes the pass program free for Gold Star families which covers entrance fees at national parks and wildlife refuges, as well as standard amenity fees at national forests and grasslands, and at lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Bureau of Reclamation.

...VOGEL from page 1 “The décor will be urban with nautical touches, and the menu will feature a lot of sharable plates with a local flair,” said Vogel. It will be the perfect place for people to gather with their “crews” — hence the name. “I don’t believe this pandemic has diminished people’s excitement for going to restaurants and bars,” he said. “If anything, through the loss of normalcy this past year, it has reminded people of the important role that these places play in everyday life. People are more than ready to safely bring back the comradery and interaction we provide.” Vogel’s optimism and kindness are part of all he does. And his enthusiasm, energy and business acumen made him the top choice to receive the 2020 Rising Star Award from HospitalityMaine, the statewide non-profit trade group repre-

senting the hospitality industry. He now serves on its board of directors. And that’s just the start. He also chairs the board of the Ogunquit Chamber of Commerce and is on the town’s budget review committee. And as if that weren’t enough to fill his days with non-stop Zoom meetings, he is an active board member and generous supporter of the Children’s Inn at the NIH (National Institutes of Health), where family members stayed while Vogel was treated for chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), a rare immune deficiency disease that made him susceptible to infection. Vogel is now clinically cured from the disease that started in infancy. The teams of doctors treating him over the years were headed by Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of See SCOTT page 9...

FINANCE & CAREER YEF Shares The Vision YORK In this, the most unusual of school years, the Board of the York Education Foundation (YEF) is engaging in its second unique community initiative. “We are thrilled to announce the ‘Share the Vision’ initiative!” said Heidi Wefers, President of YEF. Todd Springer, President and CEO of the FootBridge Company has offered to match all donations up to a total of $5,000 which are made to YEF before the end of the school year in June. YEF’s focus this year has been on its ‘Appreciation Initiative’. The non-profit is purchasing gift cards from local companies to support their business. In turn, each week a staff member at each of the four schools in town is randomly chosen to receive one of these gift cards as well as a

YEF-logo mask. “Todd’s offer incredibly generous” said Wefers. “Since YEF is unable to offer its traditional fundraising events due to the pandemic, the ‘Share the Vision’ initiative could not have come at a better time.” YEF is an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to excellence in education. Its mission is to provide funding for innovative and challenging programs in the York Public Schools, while striving to enhance and broaden community support for public education. Since 2005, YEF has funded grants applied for by York educators and administrators, and in the past 15 years we have provided nearly $300,000 to the York Public Schools and your children. Wefers suggests that the ‘Share the Vision’ initiative

will allow YEF to continue to have a significant impact on the York Public Schools for the next several years. She cited one example. In 2015 YEF funded a $9,700 grant which created a VEX Robotics Team at York High School. The robotics team enables students to gain greater practical knowledge of math, science, and engineering principles while having a fun in a team building and competitive environment. The program continues to thrive, with nearly 40 members this year. This past fall York High School “hosted” a virtual competition which involved robotics teams from six other high schools, and there are two virtual competitions upcoming in March. Donations to YEF in the ‘Share the Vision’ initiative can be made by sending a check or money order made payable to

Employee Retention Tax Credit Webinar STATEWIDE The Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) is a refundable tax credit designed to keep employees on payroll. Businesses who have seen a significant decrease in their gross sales and have been subject to a government shutdown/slowdown may be eligible for credits of up to $5,000 per employee on 2020 wages and $14,000 per employee on 2021 wages. Businesses who are likely York Education Foundation at P.O. Box 205 in York, ME 03909, or with a debit or credit card by going directly to the YEF website at www.yorkeducationfoundation.org. All donations are tax-deductible.

eligible include restaurants, doctors/dentists, retail and more who were shut down by the state and may still be under operating restrictions. While this credit can be a lucrative benefit, there have been many changes as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021, and there are many details to review before applying. Paper Trails will give you an overview of the program, and detail how we are here to help you apply for any credits for which you may be eligible. Join Chris Cluff on March 9 at 2 p.m. via Zoom.

$400K+ for Aquaculture Industry WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senators Susan Collins and Angus King announced that the Maine Aquaculture Association based in Hallowell has been awarded $400,499 to fund a research project aimed at strengthening and expanding the aquaculture industry. This funding, awarded through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Sea Grant Program, will support the research of potential new and underserved markets for Maine-grown aquaculture products and seek part-

nerships between aquaculture and wild capture supply chains. “Maine’s aquaculture industry has undergone significant growth and diversification in recent years, creating new jobs and economic opportunities in our state,” said Senators Collins and King in a joint statement. “Despite this growth, the COVID-19 pandemic has created new obstacles for aquaculture farmers, who rely heavily on the restaurant industry to keep their businesses afloat. We welcome this investment from NOAA that will help this resilient sector

weather the coronavirus pandemic and future challenges.” Specifically, the industry-propelled, interdisciplinary research project seeks to address two objectives: Identify barriers and opportunities in existing aquaculture and other seafood supply chains to support increased consumption of Maine marine aquaculture products within U.S. markets; and evaluate consumer preferences for Maine marine aquaculture products with varying attributes and branding. Senators Collins and King both advocated for the creation of SEAMaine, a strategic roadmap to strengthen Maine’s marine economy funded by the Economic Development Administration (EDA).

the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Maine CDC) has placed its first order for doses of the newly authorized Johnson & Johnson one-shot COVID-19 vaccine for 11,500 people, to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Operation Warp Speed. Additionally, the Maine CDC learned that the federal government will supplement the state allotment by sending an additional 3,500 Johnson & Johnson doses to another Maine entity that will be announced shortly. Another 1,000 doses of Moderna vaccine will be sent to Penobscot Community Health Care, a Federally qualified health center (FQHC) that is vaccinating underserved populations. Altogether, this means 55,060 Pfizer and Moderna first doses and, in the case of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, only doses will arrive in Maine this week – more than double the doses available two weeks ago. This does not count the second doses of Pfizer and Moderna vaccine that are also arriving. Maine CDC’s order reflects the maximum number of doses available to Maine for new vaccines. Combined with the previous orders, Maine expects

to have enough to vaccinate approximately 295,555 people in the first 12 weeks of distribution, including the U.S. pharmacy and FQHC distributed doses. As of February 28, 349,840 doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been given to health care workers, long-term care residents and staff, and older Mainers, including 228,274 people who have received first doses and 121,566 people who have received second doses. The dashboard on Maine’s COVID-19 vaccination website shows that 17% of Maine residents have gotten their first doses. This includes 66% of Maine residents age 70 and older. According to the Bloomberg vaccine tracker, Maine ranks 17th among states in the highest percent of first doses administered to its residents. “We are committed to using this new vaccine supply quickly to protect those most

at risk of hospitalization and death from COVID-19 in Maine,” said DHHS Commissioner Jeanne Lambrew. “The one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine opens new doors to doing so.” The 11,500 doses of Johnson & Johnson vaccine that Maine can allocate will be sent to hospitals (3,300), independent pharmacies and public health nursing clinics to vaccinate hard-to-reach older Mainers (2,700), emergency medical services for public clinics (3,000), and outpatient sites (2,500). Doses going to some locations will be distributed to a consortia of sites, specifically in Washington, Aroostook, and northern Penobscot counties. Special clinics will also vaccinate people in Somerset and York counties this week, with more on the way. Tomorrow, the large vaccination clinics in Sanford and Portland are open for vaccination as well.

Hannaford Supermarkets to Offer Johnson & Johnson Vaccinations STATEWIDE Hannaford Supermarkets says it will begin COVID-19 vaccination efforts at 35 pharmacies across Maine this week. Working with Maine’s Department of Health and Human Services and the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the pharmacies will receive a limited supply of the Johnson & Johnson oneshot vaccine and will begin administering the vaccine as soon as it’s made available. Vaccines will be available by appointment only through Hannaford’s online scheduler at www.hannaford.com/ pharmacy/covid-19-vaccine to

Maine residents who meet Maine’s new age-based eligibility guidelines. The web site offers upto-date information and appointment availability. Since the online scheduler updates in real time and reflects true appointment availability, customers are asked not to call the pharmacy for appointment information.” Of the 35 Maine stores that will begin offering vaccines, York County residents will be able to schedule appointments at the Hannaford stores in Biddeford, Saco, Waterboro, York, Buxton, Kennebunk and Wells.

important it is to keep our bodies and minds healthy,” said Governor Mills. “I thank the National Foundation for Governors’ Fitness Centers for bringing this campaign to our state and I encourage all eligible schools to apply.” All public and public charter elementary and middle schools in Maine who have a majority of students between the ages of 8 to 14 years old and an available room ready for equipment installation by June 2021 within their existing infrastructure are eligible to apply. Three schools in each state, prioritized based on need, will be chosen from applicants by NFGFC to receive a brand new, state-of-theart Don’t Quit! Fitness Center. Each fitness center is financed through public/private partnerships with companies

like The Coca-Cola Company, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield Foundation, Wheels Up and Nike, and does not rely on taxpayer dollars or state funding. Fitness in Motion provides all the fitness equipment, which is manufactured in the United States. Physical activity and exercise are shown to help prevent and treat more than 40 chronic diseases, enhance individual health and quality of life, and reduce health care costs. In schools, studies show that physical activity improves academic achievement, increases confidence and self-esteem, reduces discipline problems, cuts absenteeism, and fosters better interpersonal relationships. The school nomination form and more information about the program can be found online at https://natgovfit.org/ nominate-your-school/. School nominations are being accepted until Friday, March 19.

Dick E. Bentley, 63 NORTH BERWICK – Dick E. Bentley of Lebanon Road, passed away at his home February 11, 2021 after a brief illness. He was born in Manchester, CT, on May 15, 1957, the son of Rodney and Mary (Hitt) Bentley. Dick graduated with honors from Noble High School in 1975. He was a Master Electrician, and co-owned Ohm’s & Watson Electric. He had worked for Pratt & Whitney Aircraft, Hussey Manufacturing, Tyco Industries, and Lucas Tree Company. Dick became a Certified Tree Arborist and opened his own company, Abbott Hill Tree Services in 2002. Along with his close friend and General Manager, David Shibles, they developed a well-known tree service with a successful team, who will continue to serve the local communities. Dick was a multi-talented businessman with a charismatic personality and generous spirit, who was always willing to lend a

helping hand. He was mechanically inclined and loved working on old tractors and antique cars. He enjoyed the gatherings at his home with his many friends and adored seeing his grandchildren. Dick also loved all animals and was quite the history buff. He was predeceased by his parents, sister Sandra (Bentley) Weymouth, and son Seth Bentley. Surviving are his wife Marisa (Oriti) Bentley of Wells; longtime partner Joanne Guillemette of Sanford; daughter Brooke Bentley of Sanford; brothers, David Bentley and wife Sandra of North Berwick, Dan Bentley and wife Melodie of Rochester, NH, and Don Bentley and partner Gil Larsen of Lakeland, FL; sister Sybil Bentley of Springvale; brother-inlaw Leslie Weymouth of North Berwick; seven grandchildren, Olivia Bentley, Tristan and Isabelle Pierce, Jonathan Tebbetts, Lorrenzo Moran, Adrianna Gauthier, and Ryver Morin; many nieces and nephews; and his beloved dog Saide and cat Jasper.

Betty L. Dusseault, 88 WELLS – Betty L. Dusseault passed peacefully on February 6, 2021, at York Hospital after a period of failing health. She was born to Lewis and Sarah (Pearson) Rogers of Eliot on January 11, 1933, and graduated from Eliot High School. She married Richard B. Dusseault of Portsmouth, NH, in 1952 and in 1954 they bought their home in Wells where they raised their six children. Betty and Richard loved their yearly summer vacations at

Square Pond with their children and extended family. After Richard’s retirement they enjoyed traveling, including their road trips to Canada, Florida, California, and especially to visit family in Alaska. Betty was a dedicated homemaker and devoted mom and grandmother who had many interests including painting, sewing, and other crafts. She loved the beauty of nature and being outdoors; walking in her woods, cross country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter, playing in her gardens in the summer, and feeding and watching the wild birds. She was an avid baker and was known for often gifting people with her homemade cookies and treats. She loved visiting with her family and friends, and always had a sparkling smile for everyone. She had a mischievous sense of humor but couldn’t tell a joke with a straight face, and she often said that no matter what, you can always find something every day to be happy about. She was predeceased by her husband Richard in February of 2020, their son Glen Dusseault in 2006, daughter Denise Dusseault in 2018, and her brother Paul Rogers in November of 2020. She will be greatly missed by daughters Norma Bee and her husband Herb of Wells, Joan Nixon of Wells, Brenda Dusseault of Florida, and Annie See DUSSEAULT page 15...

J. Michael Tighe Jr., MSN, RN, 66 WYMAN TOWNSHIP J. Michael Tighe Jr. passed away Wednesday, January 27, 2021, at his home, after battling stage four metastatic cholangiocarcinoma. He was with his loved ones Christian and Brackett. Mike was born in Boston, MA, on February 28, 1954, a son of Joseph M. and Joan M. (Hayes) Tighe. He was raised in Dedham, MA.

After graduating a year early from high school, Michael continued his education: Associate of Science, Computer Information Science from Dean College, MA, 1994; LPN from Mass. Bay Community College, 1996; Associate of Science in Nursing from Southern Maine Community College, 1999; and Master of Science in Nursing, Informatic Concentration from Walden University, 2010. Michael held a variety of employment positions including hair stylist with Lord and Taylor of Boston, MA; Systems Manager and later Team Manager with Sun Life; Staff LPN with St. Joseph’s Manor in Portland; Staff RN with Maine Medical Center, Portland; Staff RN and then later Sr. Clinical Analyst IT&S with HCA Portsmouth Regional Hospital, Portsmouth, NH.; Online Adjunct Faculty with ITT Technical Institute, Grand Canyon University, and most recent York County Community College. Michael is also a published author having written two chapters on online learning: A userfriendly approach for high school and college students (33-44) (5968), Lanham, MD: Rowman and Littlefield Education. Michael also enjoyed seasonal work as a bartender, server, and host, most notably at The Blue Water Inn, Valerie’s and Angelina’s restaurants in Ogunquit. Michael enjoyed his beach time in Ogunquit where he met his true soul mate, Christian. August 1, 1995 was the beginning of a “love-at-first-sight” romance. Only three months later, October 21, did Michael and Christian make their lifelong commitment to each other. When Marriage Equality passed in Maine in 2012, Michael and Christian were the very first gay couple to be married in Ogunquit. Michael never thought of himself as a trail blazer but instead always doing the right thing.

Michael’s love for community and volunteerism was further developed when he was introduced to the Sugarloaf Community in 1995. Being a part of “The Locker Room”, Michael was a commanding presence and quickly made many friends. Michael knew right from the start skiing was to be a major part of our lives forever. In 2015, Michael co-earned the Paul Schipper Iron Man Award with Bear Thompson, having skied 170 days. Michael also pursued to become one of the oldest Ski Patrol Candidates Sugarloaf has accepted in years, later to be awarded the Director’s Award in 2018/2019. Michael has said of all his awards and titles, being a member of Ski Patrol was his second proudest accomplishment, his first was Chris. For wherever Michael went, he was always known as “Chris and Mike”. Always a beaming smile, twinkling eyes, and on-the-edge ribbing, Michael loved life. Michael was predeceased by his younger brother Timmy in 1981, mother Joan in 1982, dad Joseph in 1998, and beloved sister Brenda in 2011. Michael is survived by his husband of 25 years, Christian A. Prudente of Wyman TWP, and his “little boy”, 7-year-old

Boston terrier Brackett; awesome uncle and aunt John Tighe and wife Grace (Franz) of Dedham, MA; brother Christopher Tighe and wife Kathy (McGovern) of Myrtle Beach, SC; brother Dan Tighe of Norwood, MA; special “adopted” little sister Andrea (Foster) and husband Bobby Mac Neil of Bellingham, MA; mother-in-law Theda Prudente of Newburgh; brother Scot Prudente and wife Elizabeth (Webb) of Bangor; brother Todd Prudente and wife Caryn (Kinney) of West Falmouth; and many aunts, uncles, nieces, and cousins.

Bernier-Gelinas FUNERAL HOME

Kittery, ME We are often asked by the families we serve, here at JS Pelkey & Son and Bernier Funeral Homes, why certain expressions and traditions exist in the funeral service industry. One of the most often asked questions is “Why send flowers to a memorial service or funeral, aren’t they just a waste of money?” Well nothing could be further from the truth. As my friend Todd Van Beck recently wrote in an article: Flowers are sent to funerals for several reasons. Flowers are a means of expression. It is often difficult for those mourning a death to put feelings into words. Flowers are a visual expression of love, sympathy, and respect. They are a way of lending support and sharing the burden of grief. In addition to sending flowers to the funeral, there is a growing trend to send flowers to the home of the bereaved after the service. Some people also send flowers to the church in memory of the deceased. Flowers create a background of warmth and beauty which adds to the dignity and consolation of the service. Those who have attended services where there were no flowers have noted that something was

bereaved’s feelings in the patterns of community support which are psychologically beneficial. Flowers, however, express the inexpressible – they are symbolic.

missing – that the funeral was depressing. The funeral meets the bereaved’s need for support. Death throws people into despair and depression by separating them from one who has provided love, companionship, and security. The funeral and customs provide the means by which those close to them can give their support and share their suffering. The funeral period provides for the expression of sorrow. Only through talking about the past can the bereaved person realize the extent of the relationship with the deceased, and accept the loss and suffering. Only through weeping and talking to good listeners can they release their grief and feelings of guilt and hostility. Experts in grief therapy believe that it can be expressed best through rites, rituals, and ceremonies. The ceremony deals primarily with intellectual concepts and doesn’t fully engage the

125 Old Post Rd., Kittery, ME 207-439-4900 www.jspelkeyfuneralhome.com

There are three points to be stressed, finally, in connection with the tradition of funeral flowers. First, the role of flowers are both symbolic and aesthetic. They add great value to the richness and meaning of the ritual. Second, flowers represent sympathy extended to the bereaved. Third, flowers are sent to both the living and the dead. They are sent to the living as comfort and as tokens of respect for the deceased. We, at the JS Pelkey & Son and the Bernier Funeral Homes, hold the value of the work our local florists do in very high regard. We always encourage the families we serve to contact a local florist directly. Certainly there are national floral outlets that can be reached with a simple Google search but, honestly, the quality of these products are often substandard. Simply click the “Send Flowers” tab on our website and you will be directed to our list of trusted florists. Please call us about any questions with which we may help.

~ Ask The Computer Lady ~

Dear Computer Lady, At the beginning of the year, I created a spreadsheet for weight lifting. I have a column for each exercise, and fill out a row for each day that I work out. The name of each exercise is at the top of each column. As I have added more rows, I have to scroll back up to the top to see the headings for each column. I seem to remember that there was a way to make the top row in my spreadsheet “stick”, can you tell me how? Thanks, Jane Dear Jane, I’m so glad you are working on getting stronger! What you want to do in Excel is use the “Freeze Panes” feature. Here is how to do that. 1. Open your Excel worksheet; 2. Click the row number (on the very left edge) just below the row you want to freeze; 3. Click on the “View” tab in the ribbon, then click on the “Freeze Panes” icon; 4. Click

on “Freeze Panes” in the menu. Now, when you scroll down in your worksheet, the name of your exercises will stay visible. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, My computer has a lot of apps running when I look at Task Manager. How do I know which ones I can delete to make my computer run faster? If I delete one will it start up the next time I turn on my computer or is canceled forever? Thanks for you help. Kris Dear Kris, First, we need to determine what part of Task Manager you are viewing. Task Manager shows you what apps are currently running, what background processes are running, in addition to a lot of other things. If you are looking to stop apps from automatically starting every time Windows starts, you need to click on the “Startup” tab in Task Manager. If the startup tab is not visible, click “More Details” in the lower- left corner of the task manager window. Once you have clicked on the “Startup” tab, you will be looking at the apps that are starting every time Windows starts. If you want to stop an app from starting, right click on it and click, “Disable” in the context menu. Your app will still be listed in the startup list,

but the status will change to “Disabled”. Most of those apps will be easy to identify, and you can safely disable any of them (I would NOT disable your antivirus program however). When you disable an item on the startup list, it will stay disabled until you change it back to enabled. You can, however run the program any time you want by running it from the start menu. If you see an entry that you can’t identify, right click on it, then click “Search Online” this will take you to search results for that file. I hope this helps your computer run faster. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, I am using Windows 10 on my laptop and wonder if you can suggest a free program similar to MS Word that I can use for document/letter writing, etc. I don’t want to have to pay the price for MS, and I don’t need all the other things like Excel and the others in Office. I think I remember you suggesting some replacements a while back, but can’t remember the names of them. I am a senior and not very computer-savy, so if you could also tell me how to download and get such a program up and running it would be a big help. Thank you, Bob Dear Bob, The simplest thing to use

Emma’s Angels

Safe Haven Humane Society

NORTH BERWICK Spotlight this week on Holly! Holly is a four-year-old Heeler mix from Northern Louisiana. She was adopted out as a puppy and then returned after 3-1/2 years for not enough room in the home and kids who were not in tune with a Heeler and their needs/traits. She is a sweet, happy, high-energy girl who would do well in a quiet home. She is spayed, up-to-date on her shots, crate and potty trained, and eager to please. Holly would be happy with a fenced yard or a person who would walk her often. She will bark to warn of incoming people, but does not bite. A farm with a fenced area and some sheep would be amazing for her. If you would like to meet this truly wonderful girl, call 207-676-5599. Emma’s Angels is an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue in North Berwick. If you are having a hard time feeding your animals, give us a call.

Another Chance Animal Rescue NORTH BERWICK Two are better than one! Rubric and Hobo are two sweet guys who have become best friends while at the shelter. They would make a great pair for someone looking for an instant cat family. Rubric (left) at four years old is the quieter of the two, loves head and chin rubs, and is sweet as can be. His gregarious buddy Hobo (right) is around one and likes everything and everybody. By adopting two cats instead of one, you’re doubling the lives you’re saving. Plus, the cats are more content because of the companionship. When you adopt a cat from Another Chance Animal Rescue, you can be confident in knowing that you’ve made a difference in life of a homeless animal. Our animals are fully vetted before they go home with you. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Rubric and Hobo, or want to learn more about them, call 207-490-2855 or email mycatrescue@icloud.com with some details about your household and what you’re looking for in a cat. Thank you!

Invasive Species Awareness STATEWIDE “Together, we can do more” was the theme under which the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry rolled out for its 2021 National Invasive Species Awareness Week campaign which ran February 22-26. This annual program is designed to raise consumer awareness of invasive species, the threats they pose, and what can be done to slow or prevent their spread. Below are ten ways to help prevent the spread of invasive species in Maine: Learn how to identify signs of emerald ash borer by visiting www.maine.gov/dacf/ php/caps/EAB/EABsigns. shtml. Winter is a great time to see “blonding” on ash trees, the shallow flecking of the bark by woodpeckers. If you think you see blonding, take some good quality photos, note your location, and report your findings; Learn how to identify invasive plants like Japanese stiltgrass which might be growing on your property, and volunteer with your local land trust or conservation commission to help remove invasive plants on local public lands. The Maine Natural Areas Program developed the Maine Invasive Plant

Field Guide to help you recognize problem plants. The guide also describes control methods to help you start reclaiming your landscape; Be on the lookout for the invasive tree of heaven, which is host to a new invasive insect threat, the spotted lanternfly. If you think you have seen the tree of heaven in Maine, please report it to mnap@maine.gov; Watch out for browntail moth! Browntail moth winter webs have been found from Northern Aroostook County to York County in Maine. Check your hardwood trees and shrubs for webs. Now is a great time to clip out and destroy them before they become active; Protect our forests from invasive earthworms! Did you know there are no earthworms native to Maine? European and Asian invaders destroy forest soils with their voracious feeding. The most destructive worms are known as crazy worms, jumping worms, or snake worms. Earthworms spread when people move

plants, soil, mulch, or leaves, or when bait worms are left on the banks of waterways; When camping, leave firewood at home and prevent the spread of invasive pests. Buy firewood at the campground or other local sources; Protect Maine’s waterways from invasive aquatic plants by following “Clean, Drain, Dry” – Clean off any mud, plants, and animals from boat, trailer, motor and other equipment, and discard carefully. Drain all water from boat, boat engine, and other equipment away from the water. Dry anything that comes into contact with the water, and or rinsing thoroughly with hot, high pressure water; Don’t release aquarium fish and plants, live bait, or other exotic animals into the wild. If you plan to own an exotic pet, do your research and make sure you can commit to its care. And remember, it is illegal to import any freshwater fish and many other organisms into the state of Maine without a permit from the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife.
