Maritime Festival Launches for Sixth Year THE KENNEBUNKS & ARUNDEL – Now in its sixth year, Launch! A Maritime Festival will take place June 15 to 19, helping visitors and locals start the summer in coastal Maine. Quickly becoming one of the state’s most anticipated annual events, the festival celebrates the Kennebunk region’s rich seafaring history with events for all ages at locations throughout Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, and Arundel. Launch! is adding new events this year, including Claws for a Cause on the Village Green, benefitting the Maine Lobster-

men’s Association (MLA). “For the second year in a row, we are partnering with the MLA to give them a platform to better educate the public on the challenges our lobstermen are facing,” said Laura Dolce, executive director of the Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, Arundel Chamber of Commerce. On Saturday, four local bands – Michael Corleto, the Dock Squares, Beau Dalleo Band, and Chris Ross Band – will perform 12 to 4 p.m. at the Village Green in Kennebunkport. There will be lobster rolls for sale, as well as hot dogs, fried dough, and snow cones. The Musette bar truck will also be serv-

ing cocktails. Games and other activities will also be held. Other festival highlights include Castaway Cove for Kids at the Waterhouse Center in Kennebunk, featuring buoy decorating, touch tanks, and bouncy obstacle courses; Relaunch with Portside, a nautical-themed cocktail party benefitting Ben’s Fight, a nonprofit organization that supports families affected by cancer; River Lights Boat Parade, where boats bedecked in lights carrying costumed passengers and accompanied by music make their way down the Kennebunk River after dark; and a traditional blessing of the fleet in beautiful Cape Por-

poise village, wishing captains and crews a safe and bountiful season. Throughout the festival, visitors can also enjoy historic walking tours with costumed interpreters, a Wednesday night After Hours at White Columns, a fabulous candle and wine event with Sea Love Candles and Maine+Vine, and costumed interpreters in Kennebunkport.

YORK On April 29, the Old York Historical Society (OYHS) purchased the property at 96 Beech Ridge Road in York, formerly an Assemblies of God church. The society plans to renovate the 15,000-square-foot building to accommodate its archival and library collections, a public reading room, and storage for object collections. The new facility will open in 2023. Since 2012, the trustees of OYHS have been looking for an appropriate building in York to house its extensive archival library and object collections. The items had been stored in several locations, including the attics of historic buildings, outbuildings, and the former York Beach Post Office (which

tice building at 22 Shapleigh Road in Kittery, which provided desperately needed space and appropriate climate control. In late 2021, Fair Tide, a Kittery-based organization that finds long-term solutions for homeless individuals and families, submitted an offer to OYHS to purchase the Shapleigh Road property. Fortuitously, the Beech Ridge church building came on the market the next day. The society and Fair Tide coordinated efforts to secure the properties in a deal that is beneficial to both organizations. “We are delighted that these transactions were able to happen so smoothly,” said Joel Lefever, OYHS executive director, See CHURCH on page 5 . . .

Building a Veteran’s Home

KENNEBUNKPORT The national nonprof it organization Homes For Our Troops (HFOT) will begin the building of a specially adapted custom home for Air National Guard Staff Sergeant Kevin Campbell (pictured below) on

Saturday, June 11. The community kickoff event signifies the start of the build process and will introduce SSG Campbell to the community. In February 2010, Campbell volunteered for a second tour of duty to southwest Asia as a supply management specialist with the 157th Air Refueling Wing of the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing. Stationed at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, he was tasked with breaking down and rebuilding body armor. His responsibilities included lifting 40-pound armor for 13 hours a day. Three weeks into his deployment, he ruptured two vertebrae while performing his duties. After seeking medical attention, he returned to duty and worked through his back pain and the discomfort of his sores for the

The home being built for Campbell will feature more than 40 major special adaptations, such as widened doorways for wheelchair access, a roll-in shower, and kitchen amenities that include pull-down shelving and lowered countertops. The home will also alleviate the mobility and safety issues associated

June Named Dairy Month in Maine STATEWIDE On June 1, during a celebration at the Blaine House with farmers and producers with the Maine Dairy Industry Association, the Maine Dairy and Nutrition Council, and the Maine Cheese Guild, Governor Janet Mills signed a proclamation declaring June to be Maine Dairy Month. “Dairy farms are a cornerstone of Maine’s agricultural industry, of our rural communities, and of our economy as a whole,” said Governor Mills. “From milk to cheese to yogurt to ice cream, Maine’s dairy farmers work hard to deliver us delicious, world-class products that I am proud to celebrate and promote. I encourage Maine people to join me in appreciating Maine’s dairy farms and our incredible dairy products . . .” Amanda Beal, Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry Commissioner, added,

“Dairy Month was created to collectively thank Maine dairy farmers, creameries, and other types of dairy businesses for all their hard work in bringing us delicious products. It is also a great opportunity to highlight the highquality dairy products produced in our state, and the importance of dairy farms in the agriculture sector as a whole.” A c c o r d i n g t o M a i ne Memory Network, dairying has been one of the state’s most visible and important agricultural industries since the 19th century in which dairy farms that produced surpluses began offering butter or cream to neighbors or local stores. When Maine Central Railroad began operating refrigerated cars on its lines between Bangor, Portland, and Boston in 1881, dairy farmers were able to ship products to markets farther See DAIRY on page 13 . . .

“and as a result, both Fair Tide and Old York are better able to further their organizational missions.” The original church building, located at the corner of Beech Ridge Road and Betty Welch Road, was built in 1867 as the York and Kittery Christian Society. Nearly one hundred years later, the structure became home to the First Pentecostal Church of York-Four Square Gospel Association, later renamed the Beech Ridge Road Assemblies of God. In 1985, a large new sanctuary and fellowship hall were constructed to the southeast of the original building. Few of the original architectural elements of the 1867 building survive, but those that do will be retained. The wide plank pine flooring of the original sanctuary, discovered under later carpeting, will remain, and the gingerbread trim above the main entrance doors will continue to grace the exterior. Renovations to the interior will include the removal of walls from a 1960s addition to create secure storage rooms; the installation of fire suppression and security systems; upgraded climate control systems; wiring for an integrated computer system; and new floor coverings in much of the building. A public open house is planned for Saturday,

June 11, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., for community members interested in seeing progress on the new facility. OYHS is also delighted to announce that the facility’s new public reading room will be named The Virginia and Dexter Spiller Reading Room, to honor librarian emerita Virginia “Ginny” Spiller and her husband, Dexter. Spiller was a dedicated librarian and genealogist at OYHS from 1990 to her retirement at age 77 in 2013. Her husband worked alongside her, volunteering countless hours researching historic York land transactions and identifying historic area photographs. Spiller passed away on April 26, 2022, and the OYHS board of trustees passed a resolution at their May meeting to name the room in the couple’s honor. “Ginny was a fount of local genealogical knowledge, and a true legend in York,” said Lefever, “and I hope that recognizing the Spillers for their dedication to local history will inspire future generations of historians.” Photo from www.google. com/maps.

~ Arts & Entertainment ~ Summer Silent Screen Classics

Harold Lloyd stars in the romantic comedy “For Heaven”s Sake” (1926). Photo provided by Leavitt Theatre.

OGUNQUIT Classics of the silent film era return to the big screen this summer at Ogunquit”s Leavitt Theatre, which will host a season of vintage cinema with live music in the historic facility. The series gives area film fans a chance to see movies from the pioneering days of cinema as they were intended to be shown: on the big screen, with an audience, accompanied by live music. Most screenings will be Wednesday evenings, with the first on Wednesday, June 15,

featuring “For Heaven’s Sake” (1926), Harold Lloyd’s classic comedy about a rich philanthropist falling in love with a social worker. A total of nine programs will be offered in the series, including a 100th-anniversary screening of “Robin Hood” (1922), starring Douglas Fairbanks, on June 29, as well as “The Temptress (1926), a Greta Garbo drama that has two very different endings, in late July. September offerings will include the rare race drama “The Flying Ace” (1926), an all-Black motion picture added to the Na-

tional Film Registry last year that is a rare example of “race” cinema, produced for audiences in Black-only theaters commonly found in segregated parts of the nation. The Leavitt, a summer-only movie house, opened in 1923 at the height of the silent film era, and has been showing movies to summertime visitors for nearly a century. The silent film series honors the theater’s long service as a movie house that has entertained generations of Seacoast residents and visitors, in good times and in bad. “These are the films that first made people fall in love with the movies, and we’re thrilled to present them again on the big screen,” said Max Clayton, the Leavitt’s manager. “It’s great entertainment that still has a lot of power to move people.” Live music for each program will be provided by Jeff Rapsis, a New Hampshire-based performer and composer who

specializes in scoring silent films. In accompanying silent films live, Rapsis uses a digital synthesizer to recreate the texture of the full orchestra. He improvises the music in real time, as the movie is shown. “Silent film is a timeless art form that still has a unique emotional power,” Rapsis said. The series runs through October, concluding with a Halloween screening of “Der Golem” (1920) on Saturday, Oct. 29. Admission for each screening is $12 per person. For more information and a

Castlebay in Concert

YORK Old York Historical Society presents Castlebay, the musical duo of Julia Lane and Fred Gosbee (pictured), in concert on Friday, June 17, at 7:00 p.m. Castlebay weaves together the musical legacies of maritime Maine and the British Isles, blending history, legend, and traditional lyrics. According to their press release, Lane and Gosbee “transport their audience through time and space with their finely crafted ballads, evocative imagery, and beautiful melodies, using a

combination of Celtic harp, 12string guitar, fiddle, and woodwind instruments.” Lane is a self-taught, awardwinning singer, songwriter, and folklorist. Her book, “Song of Ships and Sailors: Bygone Ballads of Maine,” based on her research in folksong archives throughout New England, was published by Loomis House Press in 2021. Gosbee is a singer, songwriter, and storyteller, who plays classical and 12-string guitar, violin, viola, and Irish flute, and is also a craftsman who

Plein Air Preparedness KENNEBUNK An experienced plein air oil painter will share her skills with the public at the Brick Store Museum’s Bauman Family Gallery, 4 Dane Street, on Monday, June 13, at 2 p.m. The Art Guild of the Kennebunks (the Guild) has enlisted juried member and professional artist Susan E. Hanna to inspire a discussion with other plein air artists. Painting “en plein air”

(French for “in the full air”) has become more popular with the advent of the pandemic. Artists and others have flocked to scenic spots for enjoyment and to create. At this workshop, artists from various media will share what equipment, techniques, and supplies they use when painting outdoors. The format will include anecdotes as well as casual remarks by the panel members,

Pet Wisdom and Dumb Jokes in New Books WELLS Wells author Steve Burt is announcing new publications. The retired pastor, whose works have won five Mom’s Choice gold medals and more than a dozen New England Book Festival awards, is releasing four new books this summer. According to Burt, “Love is a Four-Legged Word” collects wit and wisdom for dog and cat lovers in the form of memes, cartoons, quotes, and jokes. It also features a section listing movies, TV shows, and musicals about our four-legged friends. Burt’s other three June releases include “Dumb Jokes for Kids #1,” “Dumb Jokes for Kids #2,” and “Dumb Jokes for Kids #3,” which he wrote for his grandkids, who are too young for his more adult works. Each book contains

about 200 groaners like: Why is Piglet always dirty? Answer: He plays with Pooh all day. Burt is a familiar figure at local arts and crafts shows and can be found on many Saturdays at the Kennebunk Artisans Marketplace in the Waterhouse Pavilion, sitting at book tables and autographing his mysteries, thrillers, and ghost-story collections. These titles include “New England Seaside, Roadside, Graveside, Darkside,” a collection of 20 New England ghost stories and weird tales that won the 2021 New England Book Festival prize for Best Young Adult Fiction; and the teen mystery trilogy “FreeK Camp,” “FreeK Show,” and “FreeK Week,” which won four Mom’s Choice golds, several New England Book Festival Awards, and the

Florida Book Festival grand prize. Before retiring, Pastor Burt served churches in Edgecomb, Brewer, Thorndike, Madison, and North Anson. His books can be found at most online booksellers, at Wells and York craft shows, and at his Saturday Kennebunk Marketplace book display. For more information, contact the author at 352 3918293 or passtev@aol.com.

~ Ask The Computer Pro ~ Dear Computer Pro, I have an older HP inkjet printer that was giving me an error with the black ink cartridge. I replaced that black ink cartridge, but I get the same error. Am I doing something wrong, or do you think it could be something else with the printer itself? Thanks, Fred Dear Fred, I am not sure how old your printer is, but this is fairly common in these types of printers. If you get a message that your ink is running low, that is a no-brainer. Simply replace the ink cartridge, and you should be back in business. If, however, you get an error message with a print cartridge and you replace it with a genuine cartridge and still get an error message, it is likely something in the printhead itself, and you would be better off just throwing it away and getting a new one. When looking at a new printer, consider getting a laser (www.amzn.to/3MyA5eg) over an inkjet. While the initial cost of the inkjet may be cheaper, they are much more expensive over the longer term. The cost per page on a laser is significantly cheaper than with an inkjet in most cases. An exception to this would be Epson EcoTank printers (www.

amzn.to/3zCOzXJ), which claim to only cost around half a cent per page. You will need to perform periodic maintenance tasks to keep the printhead functioning properly, but, unlike most inkjets, Epson has built these printers to last. Inkjets will never print as fast nor as clear as their laser counterparts, but some people will take that tradeoff for the initial cost savings. Good luck! Matt Dear Computer Pro, Over the past few weeks, more of my business emails that I send are going into recipients’ junk or spam folders. More recently, some emails that I send to gmail.com addresses are getting returned. What can I do? Thank you, George Dear George, I am going to assume that you are sending these emails from an email account that contains your company domain, such as george@yourcompany.com. If this is the case, there are a couple of things that may be going on that would cause the issues that you have mentioned. The first thing I would do would be to verify your domain has a properly configured sender policy framework (SPF) record in your Domain Name System (DNS). This record identifies

. . . DAIRY from page 4 away. In the 20th century, dairy farmers began to rely on artificial breeding of cows, better testing of their products, cooperatives for marketing, and larger herds. Farmers also began marketing more whole milk than other dairy products. According to the site, milk is one of the few Maine farm products that is sold primarily within the state. Currently, Maine is home to 176 dairy farms that care for herds of dairy cows, goats, and sheep, and that steward 700,000 acres of fields, pastures, and croplands. Because of their work, the state boasts award-winning cheeses, yogurt, ice cream, and butter made exclusively with Maine milk and cream. Maine is among states where micro-creameries can heat-treat fresh and fermented dairy products, such as yogurt and cheeses, and sell to shoppers under a state dairy licensing program that has helped establish nearly 80 micro-dairies. According to the Governor’s Office, Maine dairy farmers and creameries provide 4,733 direct and 10,201 indirect jobs and generate

which servers are permitted to send email on your domain’s behalf. This would help prevent spammers from sending emails with spoofed or forged email addresses with your domain in them. If you are unfamiliar with SPF records, reach out to an IT professional that is experienced with them to help you, as this record is extremely sensitive, and the slightest fat-finger could wreak havoc on your outbound email being successfully delivered. The other thing I would check would be to see if your domain has been blacklisted by using the Blacklist Check at MxToolbox (www.mxtoolbox. com/blacklists.aspx). This will check your domain against the top blacklist sites and let you know if you have somehow been blacklisted. If you are blacklisted, you would need to work with the blacklist sites to determine why you were added to the list and what steps you need to take to be removed. FYI: The larger email providers like Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo are implementing stricter rules around email authentication in an effort to minimize as much spam and spoofing as possible. I would recommend reaching out to an IT pro to look at your company’s email environment holistically to see if there are any shortcomings that could use some attention. Good luck! Matt Dear Computer Pro, The monitor on my desktop is on its last leg. Before it dies and I must run out and buy the first thing I find, do you have any sug-

gestions? My eyes are not as good as they used to be, so something bigger would be better. My current monitor is connected with a VGA cable, but my desktop also has a DisplayPort connection available. Thanks in advance, Betty Dear Betty, Glad to hear you are trying to be proactive. When talking about displays, it really comes down to budget and just how big you need or want the new display to be. The latter may also be constrained by the actual room you have for the new display. For this response, I am going to assume that your desk is wide open and could fit any size display. A couple of things to note when shopping for displays, besides the interfaces they support, are resolution and whether they have built-in speakers. Since HDMI displays have been common now for 10-plus years, folks have gotten used to their monitor having speakers and are shocked when they find that 27-in display at such a great price, yet they no longer have sound. Regarding resolution, do not look at anything under 1920x1080, regardless of size. As you get beyond 24 inches, start looking for higher resolutions, or your picture is going to start looking very grainy. For recommendations, my first choice and the one I use would be a Samsung 34-in Ultrawide (www.amzn.to/3H1ykov). This is a beautiful screen that supports all current digital interfaces including Thunderbolt.

I have used it with both Mac and PCs (Thunderbolt and DisplayPort) and absolutely love it! If you happen to be using a laptop that charges via Thunderbolt, this display will charge devices up to 85 watts. I used it with a MacBook Pro and loved that I only needed to make one connection when I took it out of my laptop bag. Other great choices are the Philips 34in (www.amzn. to/3GW2j1b) or, for a smaller display, the HP 24-in display (www. amzn.to/3Q5cQvi). Good luck! Matt Interested in learning more?

If you choose to take a bath, don’t fill the tub and consider using old bath water for other purposes, such as watering houseplants or the garden. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reports that Americans use approximately nine billion gallons of water every day to take care of their yards. Using old bathwater can reduce that number.

In order to foster cleanup and reuse of the facility, SMPDC provided a $200,000 grant to the City of Biddeford and loan funds to the developer.

Health & Fitness What is Maskne and How Do You Treat It? Public health guidelines advising people to wear masks have proven effective at slowing the spread of COVID-19, but such recommendations have led to some unforeseen and unwanted side effects. For example, wearing masks that cover the lower portion of the face has led to an uptick in instances of acne. U.S. Dermatology Partners advises that regular mask wearing can lead to skin health issues, including flare-ups in chronic skin conditions. It’s become such a widespread issue that the term “maskne” has now become a part of the lexicon. According to Dr. Mona Gohara, an associate clinical professor of dermatology at the Yale School of Medicine, maskne is a real thing. The most common kind is acne mechanica, which is the type of acne that occurs when something rubs up against the face. Oil, sweat, and a lack of fresh air to the face can cause the formation of acne just about anywhere beneath protective masks. Health care workers may be especially susceptible, but just about anyone who wears a mask for an extended period of time may develop maskne. Dr. Shari Lipner, an associate professor of clinical dermatology and an associate attending physician at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, says anything that causes friction on the face can cause the skin to become irritated and inflamed. Couple that with trapped bacteria, sweat, oil, and acne can result. Dermatologists are seeing a rise in patients visiting their practices for acne issues and treatments. Mask-related skin issues have become such an issue that the COVID-19 task force of the American

The Weekly

Sentinel

Academy of Dermatology has released advice on the subject, including ways to mitigate maskne formation. Wash Masks Frequently Those who opt for fabric masks should look for ones that are made of 100 percent cotton or silk for the most breathability. Also, wash the mask as frequently as possible to avoid reapplying dirt, oil, and sweat to the face. Follow Single-Use Mask Use People who prefer disposable masks should use the mask and properly discard it after using it once.

Use Gentle, Fragrance-Free Products Wash the face with a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser each morning and night. Harsh products can further irritate the skin. In addition, apply a light, fragrance-free moisturizer to serve as a friction barrier between face and mask. Try OTC Products Over-the-counter solutions of benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid may help treat acne. How-

ever, if acne does not improve within a week or two, visit a boardcertified dermatologist. Maskne is a condition marked by a flareup of acne from prolonged mask use. There are ways to keep skin issues at bay with selfcare and the advice of dermatologists. The Weekly Sentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by third-party sources.

Reduce Beauty Product Usage Consider going without face makeup under the mask to reduce the potential of it contributing to the formation of oil and bacteria. Otherwise, look for products that are noncomedogenic or oil-free.

Selecting an Easier-To-Train Dog Breed

Training is one of the most effective ways to keep companion animals safe and secure. When prospective pet owners begin looking for a new dog, one of the first thoughts that may come to mind is trainability and whether certain breeds are more readily trainable than others. The pet food manufacturers at Honest Kitchen indicate that many factors can make a difference in how easily a dog will train, and breed is just one of them. Certain traits can suggest trainability, but how the animal was bred, raised, and

socialized can affect how well a dog takes to training as well. The A mer ican Ken nel Club reports that certain dogs are more willing to comply with owner requests, while others are bred to work independently and may be less likely to immediately respond to commands from their owners. Certain traits can make some dogs a little easier to train than others. For example, dogs that are food-motivated and enjoy being around people may be more easily trained than those without such traits. Though there’s no guarantee

Papillon Smaller dogs are often dubbed “stubborn” or “independent.” But papillons are incredibly smart and trainable and are naturally focused. The pet advisement site K9 of Mine warns that some of the smartest, most easily trained dogs may not necessarily be the easiest to live with. They can get bored easily and destroy things around the house if they can’t keep their minds occupied. This is a factor to consider when selecting a breed as well.

Kennebunk Savings Launches Solar Project in Wells WELLS Kennebunk Savings recent ly an nounced t hat it’s embarking on a solar project adjacent to their Wells location on Sanford Road. The bank is working with ReVision Energy to install a 288-panel, ground-mounted solar array in an effort to reduce its carbon footprint. The solar array will be located behind its Wells branch where a vacant office building now sits. The array will occupy a space roughly the size of a football field and will generate nearly 160,000 kilowatt hours, enough energy to power four of the bank’s branches. The project began Monday, May 9, with the permanent closure of Brook Lane, the rightof-way maintained by the bank that runs from Stephen Eaton Lane through the Bank’s parking lot to Sanford Road (route 109). Demolition of the 30-yearold building on the property will begin to make way for the array. “We’re incredibly excited to see this project come to fruition,” said Dennis Byrd, Kennebunk Savings’ chief operating officer. “We want to make best use of land while being responsible corporate citizens and

neighbors. This solar array will have an annual CO2 offset of 168,806 lbs. That’s equivalent to 8,613 gallons of gasoline not burned, or 16 cars removed from the road. Seeing the potential environmental impact, we’re now evaluating other opportunities to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.” The solar project is all part of Kennebunk Savings’ broader environmental goals. For the past year, the bank has been participating in the University of New Hampshire’s Carbon Clinic, which pairs students

with area businesses and nonprofits to perform a comprehensive carbon footprint analysis and provide guidance on how to achieve carbon neutrality. The bank is also a long-time supporter of many land trusts, regularly funding land conservation that preserves these natural spaces for generations to enjoy. Last year, it launched its tree initiative. It gave away nearly 1,875 white pine saplings to customers and planted more than 125 trees in Kennebunk and Sanford, and plans to do another planting this fall.

White Barn Inn Appoints New Chef KENNEBUNK White Barn Inn, Auberge Resorts Collection, recently announced the appointment of Mathew Woolf as executive chef. Bringing more than two decades of culinary and restaurant experience, Woolf will oversee all of the culinary operations and programming at White Barn Inn, including the property’s signature restaurants, White Barn Inn Restaurant and Little Barn. “We are thrilled to welcome Chef Woolf, who has such a strong knowledge about the origin of coastal culinary traditions, to Kennebunk and to our White Barn Inn family,” said Daniel Braun, General Manager, White Barn Inn, Auberge Resorts Collection. “His wealth of experience speaks for itself, having worked in a variety of highly esteemed kitchens in London, Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York City, ultimately shaping his unique approach to the culinary world.” Woolf received his education at Hospitality Plus, College of Catering in Chelmsford, Essex, England. His culinary career began in London, England, which marked his initial pursuit into the high-end culinary scene. After a sous-chef position at Restaurant Sixteen in Chicago, Woolf relocated to Los Angeles where he oversaw and managed all aspects of FIG Restaurant’s kitchen, followed by an executive-chef role at The Fat Cow, a Gordon Ramsay concept restaurant. Woolf joins White Barn Inn from his most recent position at the iconic Rainbow Room in New York City, where he served as executive chef and pastry chef for over seven years outreach efforts and community collaborations,” added Amy Michaels, the organization’s community educator. Kids Free to Grow currently collaborates with the York Public Library offering free courses, and with Time of Wonder Daycare Center located at St George’s Episcopal Church. The Share and Care Grant program will continue into the next year. New applications will be accepted in January 2023. The York Rotary meets at 7:30 a.m. on Fridays at the Baldwin Center in York.

while managing a team of more than 30. “I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work at White Barn Inn and meld modern American cuisine with coastal luxury,” he said. In this new role, Woolf is taking extra care to preserve the beloved traditional dishes for which the resort is known – such as the butter-poached Kennebunkport lobster and beef tenderloin with foie gras crust – while seamlessly weaving in contemporary and innovative menu items.

Jacquelyn Berry, 87 NORTH BERWICK – Jacquelyn “Jackie” Berry, of North Berwick, passed away peacefully at Gosnell Memorial Hospice House in Scarborough, on May 15, 2022. Jackie was born in Sanford on April 22, 1935, and grew up in an old farmhouse in the Tatnic region of Wells. Jackie attended school in a one-room schoolhouse, later attending Wells High School and graduating fourth in her class from North Berwick High School. While in high school, Jacquelyn attended Dirigo Girls State and participated in school musicals. Her rich singing voice drew the attention of her music teacher, who encouraged her to study

opera. While she was unable to follow that path, her children and grandchildren fondly remember her yodeling as she did the laundry. Her voice was like a great bell ringing within the four walls of her old Victorian home. Jackie met John Francis Berry after riding her bicycle to a movie theater in Somersworth, NH. It was a big adventure for a fourteen-year-old from North Berwick! The couple married in 1953 and went on to have five children; but John passed away before the fifth child was born. Though Jackie was grateful to have the support of her parents, Flora and Del Tufts, single motherhood was unexpectedly thrust upon her. Heartache struck Jackie once more when her third child, Michael, developed cancer and passed away at the age of thirteen. She went on to lose two adult children. Jackie was devastated by each loss but persevered, always smiling through life’s trials and tribulations. After raising her family, Jackie went to work at Spencer Press, in Wells, for over 20 years, retiring in 2020. Jackie’s motto was “keep smiling,” and she lived that motto as she shared her smile with everyone from her neighbors to the postman to the nurses who cared for her in her final days.

She was known for her diamond smile, which she accentuated with the red lipstick she always carried in her purse. In fact, she would seal birthday cards with her signature red kiss mark! She loved a good joke and would reward the teller with her easy, boisterous laughter. Jackie was an active member of the First Congregational Church of North Berwick and was renowned for her chocolate chip cookies. Each year at the Christmas fair cookie walk, people would request “Jackie’s Cookies”! Jackie was a passionate woman who cared deeply about her family and everyone in her inner circle. She was also a dog lover and cherished her time with her dogs, Maggie and Lady. She rarely put herself first and would do anything for her children. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and friend who will be sorely missed by all. Jackie is survived by her two children, Kathyrn “Kathy” Paradis (wife of the late William “Bill” Paradis), of North Berwick, and Scott Berry, of Berwick; three grandchildren: Wayne Paradis (and wife Shaye), Emily Gaddis (and husband, Joe), and Shana Genre (and husband, Leon); and seven great-grandchildren: Eliza Paradis, Lucas Paradis, Kayla Colby, Cameron Gaddis, Lily Gaddis, Wilder Genre, and Alice Genre. Jackie, the baby of her family, was predeceased by her parents, Flora and Delbert Tufts, and her five siblings: Millard Tufts, Marion Farrar, Myrtle Hayes, Barbara Leslie, and Jean Morrow.

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.

A visitation was held Saturday, May 21, 12-2 p.m., followed by a service. Pastor Jeffrey Pelkey officiated. All who attended remember this vivacious member of our community. Memorial donations may be made to: The First Congregational Church, PO Box 565, North Berwick, ME 03906; and Another Chance Animal Rescue, PO Box 552, North Berwick, ME 03906. The family would like to thank Pinnacle of Sanford for all of the care and devotion the staff provided to Jackie. We would also like to thank the Gosnell Memorial Hospice House, where Jackie spent her last day. Funeral arrangements were made by Johnson Funeral Home in North Berwick.

Edward Flannery, 91 OGUNQUIT – Edward W. “Bud” Flannery, a longtime resident of Acton, MA, passed away peacefully on May 20, 2022, at

the Care Dimensions Hospice House in Lincoln, MA. He was the beloved husband of the late Joan (Cooke) Flannery, to whom he was married 65 years at the time of her passing in 2018. Bud was born in Concord, MA, son of the late John J. and Violet G. (Riley) Flannery. He was raised in Concord and was a graduate of Concord High School with the class of 1949. He was a member of the Concord High School championship football team, which held the win-streak record beaten by Acton-Boxborough over 50 years later. Bud was bor n a hard worker. He began working for his father’s business, John J. Flannery, Inc., as a young boy and continued to expand the company’s scope and operation for over sixty years. What started as building roads grew to the construction of homes all over

the local area. In the winter, he would plow snow, including at the rail yard in Boston, often being away from home for days. This dedication and work ethic carried over to all aspects of Bud’s life. A dedicated husband and father, Bud was a true family man. He supported all his children in their endeavors and could always be found cheering them on from the sidelines. He loved to entertain family and friends. He enjoyed cooking, whether it was for just his family or the entire AB football team. He and Joan enjoyed traveling, especially to Bermuda and to their second home in Ogunquit. His travels with Rotary International brought him everywhere from England to Australia and New Zealand. Bud’s countless contributions to his community are truly unparalleled. A founding member of the Acton Rotary Club since 1962, and past District Governor, Bud truly lived the “Service Above Self” motto every day. His particular contributions to the student athletes of Acton included multiple renovations of the varsity football field, reconstruction of the varsity baseball dugouts, and the creation of the Mass Avenue tennis courts. He was Blue

and Gold Award winner and member of the Colonial Club. He was also past president of the Monday Night Quarterback Club. Bud was a past member of the Planning Board and Recreation Commission. A past president of the Acton Chamber of Commerce, he helped begin The Acton Looks Good Contest, as well as the Acton Town Fair. More recently, Bud was the distinguished recipient of Rotary International’s Service Above Self Award, the highest honor the organization bestows internationally. The impact of Bud’s generosity and dedication to the communities of Acton and Boxborough will surely be felt for years to come. Bud is lovingly survived by his children, Barbara Smith, Sherri Hodgson and her husband Mark, Debbie Dionne and her husband Ribby, John Flannery and his wife Vickie, Richie Flannery and his wife Kathy, Eddie Flannery and his wife Tracey, and Jan Flannery and her husband Joe Burk; and by 14 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. He also leaves is brother, John J. Flannery Jr. Visiting hours were held Monday, May 23, 4-8 p.m., in the Acton Funeral Home, 470 Massachusetts Avenue (Route 111), Acton. The funeral Mass

was celebrated on Tuesday, May 24, at 10 a.m. in St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church, 89 Arlington Street, Acton. Burial followed in Mt. Hope Cemetery, Central Street, West Acton.

FINANCE & CAREER Racial Justice Fund Seeks Applicants STATEWIDE The Maine Justice Foundation, the state’s leading funder of civil legal aid for poor and vulnerable Mainers, is pleased to announce the second round of grants from the Racial Justice Fund. The foundation will accept applications for grants of up to $10,000 through June 15. The Racial Justice Fund supports education and advocacy aimed at achieving racial justice and addressing systemic racism. The fund supports members of the BIPOC community (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) by forging social, systemic, and economic solutions to combat racism in Maine. Qualified organizations will be awarded grants to fund programs that advance racial justice throughout the state at every level of society, including those that address the legal system, healthcare, education, the workplace, food insecurity, natural resources, and housing. Applicants must be Maine based and must demonstrate the involvement and participation of Maine BIPOC residents.

In early 2020, in the wake of the racially motivated murders of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor, among others, corporations and philanthropic leaders across Maine joined forces to raise an initial $270,000 to launch the Racial Justice Fund of the Maine Justice Foundation. In the following year, the foundation issued grants to the Greater Portland Immigrant Welcome Center, Downeast Diversity Project, League of Women Voters of Maine Education Fund, Maine Inside Out, Sunlight Media Collective, and The Third Place. The Foundation continues to seek donations to fund programs

that address systemic racism and inequities throughout our communities. “The Maine Justice Foundation has long supported the ideal of access to justice for all Mainers,” said Michelle Draeger, Executive Director. “The Racial Justice Fund demonstrates our conscious commitment to this ideal not only for white Mainers but also for our fellow BIPOC community members who may be deprived of equitable treatment or suffer the effects of systemic racism . . . . This critically important work not only supports [them], but it also engenders understanding of systemic inequities so we can all participate in

solutions.” Grant guidelines and application forms can be found online at www.grantinterface.com/sl/

She enjoyed many years working in merchandising, which took her all over the world, making connections throughout. She was a dedicated public ser vant for decades in her home town of Eliot and in York County. Her experience made her a wonderful advocate for the unheard. She was elected to the Maine House of Representatives for the 148th District and served from 2002 until 2010 when she termed out. She was proud of her time “Doing the People’s Work,” and was honored in 2008 to receive the Legislative Advocacy Award from the Adoptive and Foster Families of Maine. Her proudest accomplishment, though, was being the “Favorite Aunt” to her many nieces, nephews, and great-nieces-andnephews. She was always glad to bake for every event, cater a wedding, or offer an ear to talk to and give sound advice on nearly any topic. She will be dearly missed by so many that knew and loved her. She is survived by her brothers, Richard Oeser and his wife Lucy, Robert Oeser, David Oeser and his wife Lauren, Stephen Oeser and his wife Lorrie; and her sister, Nancy Shapleigh; as well as her beloved sixteen nieces and nephews.

16, 1940, to the late Edith Shaw and Francis Savard. Susan will be remembered for the limitless love and affection she had for her family and friends. Everyone who knew her felt her warmth and knew how special she made them feel. She taught her daughters kindness and gratitude and how to toilet paper a house without getting caught. She loved her four grandsons and had a passion for filling their bellies with ice cream and candy. Susan loved gardening, bird watching, sunbathing at Fort Foster, and Elvis. She was the life of the party. She was the light of our lives. Susan is loved and remembered by her partner in life, John Waldron Jr., of Kittery Point; her four sisters, Judy Rober ts, Jack ie Margeson, Margie Harper and husband Richard, and Loraine Palmer and husband Raynor; her two daughters, Stephanie Bertrand and husband Brian Bertrand, of Eliot, and Rebecca WaldronGeranis and husband Andrew Geranis of York; her four grandsons, Devon Bertrand, John Bertrand, Rhett Geranis, and Emerson Geranis; her many nieces and nephews; and many, many lifelong friends.

Guests joined the celebration 3:30-6:30 p.m. and were invited to wear Susan’s favorite colors: pink, purple, or pastels. They shared stories, laughs, and some of Susan’s favorite foods. Care of the Waldron Family has been entrusted to the JS Pelkey & Son Funeral Home.

Traip Academy Yearbook Achieves Gold Level Award KITTERY For the second year in a row, Traip Academy’s yearbook program has achieved the Jostens 2022 National Yearbook Program of Excellence award at the Gold Level. The award recognizes engaging yearbooks that reflect a broad representation of the student body while helping students develop 21st-century skills such as communication, collaboration, and information and communication technologies literacy. Principal John Drisko noted, “This level of excellence is due to the dedication of the yearbook’s advisors, Brandon Farmer and Peter Cathey. In addition, the Publications class that creates the yearbook is run like a business, giving students tremendous opportunities to do authentic work.” Kudos must also go to the student editors: Editor-in-Chief Nora Gilbert, Business Manager Maggy Johnson, and Creative Director Emma Dawson-Webb. The award was presented to “The Ranger Log” yearbook for achieving defined criteria in one or more of the following categories: creating an inclusive yearbook, generating school engagement, and successfully managing the yearbook creation process. This year’s theme was “375 Memories,” celebrating the

375th anniversary of the founding of Kittery. Yearbook staff collected and incorporated memories of Kittery and Traip from area residents and alumni. “The Ranger Log” has also been featured in the Jostens “Look Book 2022,” celebrating the best-of-the-best in yearbook design and inclusivity. “Look Book” is a collection of outstanding yearbooks and their creative themes, cool covers, beautiful designs, relevant coverage of school events, meaningful storytelling, and st unning photography. Along with design excellence, the annual publication honors the work of the students who create the yearbook over the course of six to twelve months. Through it, they chronicle the experiences, stories, and achievements most

relevant to students and to that academic year. Adv i sor s Fa r me r a nd Cathey noted, “The 2021 ‘Ranger Log’ was the first edition of our newly redesigned yearbook. We redesigned the yearbook to be more inclusive of student experiences and their stories, which is why the theme of [last year’s] yearbook was ‘Our Story.’ We are very happy that Jostens recognized the Foreign Exchange Student page for its design, uniqueness, and inclusivity. We are very proud of the students’ hard work and the efforts that went into the redesign.” The yearbook staff received a copy of the Jostens “Look Book 2022” with a plaque and banner from Jostens to recognize their outstanding achievement.

Easy Weddings Come to the Seacoast

KITTERY Firef ly Wedding Chapel celebrated its grand opening in Kittery on May 28-29, and is now open for business! Couples no longer need to run off to Las Vegas to elope in a wedding chapel. They just pick up a marriage license at the town hall beforehand and can then opt for one of the 30-minute or one-hour ceremony packages Firefly Wedding Chapel has to offer. Designed, constr ucted, owned, and operated by local married couple Tara Price and Joaquin Gonzalez Pallares, this unique location specializes in elopements and micro-weddings of up to 30 guests. Price says, “It’s a full service wedding chapel for small

ceremonies and elopements. Zero religious affiliations. All are welcome to come get married here. Our targeted clientele are couples who don’t have the time or the means to plan a big wedding and want something simple and intimate.” Maine has long been a popular wedding destination spot, and Firef ly Wedding Chapel provides the option to marry on the seacoast without the high cost, or the worry of unexpected rain. It is a one-stop shop that includes an elegant indoor setting, decorative flowers, on-site wedding officiants, festive ceremony music, and in-house photography services. Learn more at www.fireflyweddingchapel.com or 207-690-4140.

OMAA's Glass Curtain is Up!

Cerabona Named Volunteer of the Year ELIOT Retired Eliot Elementary School (EES) teacher Jan Cerabona was recently recognized for her volunteer activities with the 2022 Volunteer of the Year award given annually by the Maine Principals’ Association (MPA). During her years at EES, from 1975 to 2003, she led the school’s preschool program, which she had developed as a community action project in 1973 and 1974 as part of her Teacher Corps Program internship work. After her retirement, she began volunteering in activities with the Eliot Historical Society (EHS) and the Maine Education Association (MEA) – Retired. Cerabona continues her story: “In the EHS, I became the school contact for second-grade staff and their unit on Eliot history. I also work at our number eight schoolhouse museum providing information and tours. At MEA – Retired, I was chair of community participation and initiated our Day of Caring project, which is a statewide volunteer project that

asks all district associations to do something special for a school in their county on or around September 11th annually.” The MPA volunteer award is given annually to one person in the state of Maine. It’s charge is to “recognize those individuals who make outstanding contributions serving the youth of Maine and for outstanding contributions to education and/or to the general welfare of Maine youth.” In order to be eligible, a candidate must be a Maine resident over the age of 21 who is not paid for the services for which they may be recognized. Candidates are

nominated by MPA members (members themselves are not eligible), and submitted applications include statements of support from school officials and members of the school community. This year, the MPA received over two-dozen nominations from throughout the state. After the award ceremony at the school, members of the EHS community praised Cerabona’s energy and spirit. “You are such an amazing role model, thank you for all that you do for our community. We are so blessed to have you touch so many lives. Thank you for sharing your passion for Eliot History,” wrote community member Donna Rogers-Whitman. For her own part, Cerabona was surprised by the nomination and said that she did not know much about the MPA or its process. Nevertheless, she says, “I certainly was overwhelmed and appreciated being honored by this association.” Photo above of 2019 Day of Caring from www.ycrea.org.

OGUNQUIT The new glass curtain wall has been installed at the Ogunquit Museum of American Art (OMAA). It took a team of ten people most of a morning to install the four panels with the assistance of a crane and many suction cups. The OMAA reopened Saturday, May 14, after just four days of closure. The wall is important for the perseveration of works in the museum’s permanent collection and rotating exhibitions as it creates a protective barrier between the galleries and the ocean. In the

past, OMAA has been limited in its ability to exhibit certain works due to fluctuating temperature and humidity – not to mention the effects of harmful ultraviolet light. These inch-thick, specially designed panels are an essential step for the museum, indicative of its effort to move forward. The OMAA wants to thank the Davis Family Foundation for a grant in support of this project, and especially Gale and Philip Morgan for their generosity in helping to underwrite the glass panels. Photo above: The glass curtain ready for installation.
