Governor Mills Announces End to State of Civil Emergency AUGUSTA Governor Janet Mills announced that Maine’s State of Civil Emergency will end June 30. “Today, we take another important step forward in our return to normal,” said Governor Janet Mills. “After fifteen long, difficult months, ending the State of Civil Emergency is a welcome milestone that reflects the progress Maine has made in getting people vaccinated, reducing the spread of the virus, and

getting back to normal. Maine people have persevered, and, although challenges remain, we will get through them together just as we did this past year. I congratulate and thank Maine people for all they have done to protect themselves, their loved ones, and their fellow citizens.” The Governor temporarily extended the current State of Civil Emergency, which was set to expire on June 13 through June 30, to ensure an orderly transition out of the emergency,

allowing State government departments to continue necessary pandemic-related services. During this time, departments will identify any policies that may need temporary extensions past June 30, 2021, such as flexibilities for child care providers and home-and community-based services given ongoing pandemic-related challenges. The State’s last remaining face covering requirement, See END page 4...

In January, Governor Janet Mills posted on Facebook about her ﬁrst dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, administered by Dr. James Jarvis of Northern Light Health.

Project Graduation Delivers “Celebration of the Century” YORK “Best night ever” was how Carly Mitchell, YHS Class of 2021, described Project Graduation which was held this past Friday night into the early hours of Saturday morning. Thanks to the efforts of Yorkwise, Mitchell and her classmates were treated to a much-deserved evening of fun-filled activities after a very long senior year dominated by COVID-19. “We were determined to give the kids an amazing experience” said Neil Rideout who led Yorkwise’s planning for Project Graduation. In a major depar-

ture from the previous thirty nine Project Grad events, the celebration was held solely at York

New Heavy Lift Crane Arrives at PNSY KITTERY On Tuesday, June 15, a new heavy lift crane arrived by barge to the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. “This state-of-the-art crane, represents a capital investment of approximately $54.9 million,” said Project Manager Jason Jordan. “It was manufactured by Konecranes in Wisconsin and provides critical support to the shipyard mission.” Though the new crane will have a 140 ton lifting capacity, more than twice that of the current cranes, it will not be twice the size. The new crane will be approximately 10-15% taller

High School. Rideout shared that “since so much of this year was held remotely, we felt the kids

would enjoy spending the night at the school”. This also helped overcome the challenges of not knowing the limitations of busing graduates to different location (as in past years) and the uncertainty of which businesses would be open and able to accommodate the entire class. “Yorkwise did a phenomenal job setting up the celebration of the century!” said class officer, Calvin Healy. The school was transformed into a virtual carnival that would be envied by the likes of PT Barnum. The gym was filled with large inflatable games such as axe throw-

compared to the shipyard’s current portal cranes, which have a boom height of 195 ft. “The addition of this new portal crane extends heavy lift capability to all of the dry docks here at the shipyard,” said Lifting and Handling Department Branch Head, Brendan Goodwin. “The increase in lift capability expands the scope of submarine overhaul and modernization work that PNS is able to execute in the future.” Though the new portal crane is mobile, it will be primarily located adjacent to the shipyard’s Dry Dock #1.

NMS EXCEL Team Nominated as Finalists for Satellite Design Competition

NORTH BERWICK The University of Southern Maine announced its finalists of Maine middle and high schools to compete in the first-ever USM Cubesat Design Competition (UCDC) this spring. The team from Noble Middle School (NMS) was selected as a finalist for the inaugural UCDC competition. The finalists will start to build and test their microsatellites

Cube satellites, or “CubeSats,” are a class of small cube-shaped research spacecraft (typically weighing less than 3 lbs.) that have created a new era of space discovery as well as hands-on STEM education opportunities for K-12 and college students. UCDC brought together teams of students in grades 6-12 from schools across Maine to conceptualize, plan and pres-

ent original payload designs to a panel of space industry experts. This year, students focused on designing high-altitude, functioning micro-satellite missions. The finalist teams now advance to a build and test phase, where they will bring their designs to life using 3D printing technology and deploy their CubeSats via highaltitude balloon. Due to the pandemic, UCDC is being conducted virtually and per public health guidelines. The Noble Middle School Team, The Planeteers, Vincent, Braiden, Tristan, and Kaidden, are ambitious “Space Musketeers” on a mission to learn more about the effects of certain VOC on the speed with which the Polar ice is melting. Their mission satellite, aptly named, A Warming Warning, is set to bring back essential data in the quest to stop global warming. The crew is coached by Noble Middle School’s EXCEL teacher Christa Boeykens-Bui, one of 120 teachers selected for a National History Day spring professional development program.

As Maine carves out a place for itself in the space industry, USM has been at the forefront of developing CubeSat technology and cultivating STEM opportunities for local students. In the fall of 2020, USM partnered with the Maine Space Consortium to hold the first series of NASA-funded CubeSat workshops attended by several Maine high schools. Additionally, USM faculty have various CubeSat-related initiatives currently underway. USM is one of several institutions working collaboratively toward Maine’s ultimate goal of establishing a spaceport to launch satellites into orbit. Maine is the only place on the eastern seaboard where this is feasible. UCDC is led by USM engineering faculty Dr. Scott J. Eaton and Dr. Asheesh Ravikumar Lanba. Dr. Eaton engages in crosscutting research to improve efficiency and reduce emissions within our energy and transportation systems. His focus areas include alternative fuel processing, high-eff iciency clean combustion, and exhaust

12 who are not yet eligible for a vaccine – wear face coverings indoors. School Administrative Units and child care settings may require face coverings, as some businesses have done. Additionally, the Department of Health and Human Services continues to encourage schools to participate in its free pooled testing program, which reduces the spread of the virus in schools and eliminates the need for quarantining for participating students and staff who are asymptomatic. The State of Civil Emergency allowed the Governor to im-

plement public health measures and deploy all available governmental tools to respond to and contain COVID-19. As of June 11, most states in the nation still have active emergency declarations, according to the National Governors Association. Maine continues to demonstrate nation-leading progress in administering vaccinations and containing the spread of

COVID-19. More than 73 percent of Maine people age 12 and older have received at least one dose of vaccine and 64.9 percent are fully vaccinated, according to the U.S. CDC vaccination tracker. Maine, adjusted for population, also ranks 4th lowest in total number of cases and 4th lowest in number of deaths from COVID-19, according to the U.S. CDC.

Dear Computer Lady, In making tutorials I sometimes need to put arrows pointing to several different objects. The only way I know to do this is from the shapes menu is to click on the arrow and paste and use it. After you click and use the arrow in one place, to get an arrow in another place on the same item I have to go back to the shapes menu and click the arrow again. To put in the third arrow I have to do the same thing over again. I asked ‘google’ how to load the clipboard so as to insert/paste/ use one item multiple times but what I get from Google is how to insert multiple items one at a time. Would you please tell me how to load the clipboard in order to paste one single item multiple times? Thank you very, very much, Kleo Dear Kleo, I am not sure what program you are using to put your shape in place, but since you are using your shapes menu in that program to place the arrow, you are not copying it onto the clipboard, just inserting it from the menu. If you want to paste the same shape several times, try this method. After inserting your first arrow in the method described above, highlight that arrow on your document and copy it. You can use either “Edit” and “Copy” in the menu, or the Ctrl + C keyboard combination. Once your arrow has been copied to the clipboard, you can paste it as many times as you want. It will remain on your clipboard until you copy something

Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, First a huge “thank you” for the help you’ve done for a lot of people, especially me even when I did not send the original question. I have a problem with the Windows 10 file or document index. There are headings of OneDrive, Quick access, This PC and one with my given name. My older saved files are in a separate location and it’s anyone’s guess where new files are saved. Is there any way to just make this index an alphabetical list? Thanks, Alice Dear Alice, What you are describing is a “Feature” of Windows 10 (and older versions of Windows) that for most people is more of a problem than a feature. If you look at the top of the navigation pane in Windows Explorer (top- left of the window) you will see a star with the words, “Quick Access” this is supposed to give you quick access to folders that you frequently use. If you point your mouse cursor over the words, “Quick Access” you will see a small arrow pointing down. Click on this arrow to collapse the Quick Access menu. This will remove quick access shortcuts from your index. Libraries are also not actual folders but shortcuts to different kinds of folders. If the Libraries menu item is expanded, you can click on the arrow to collapse the

This will reduce the number of items showing in your navigation pane, if you want to see just a listing of the folders actually in your user account, just click on your name, and the folders will appear in the right pane of Windows Explorer. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, I just purchased a new Dell Computer with Windows 10. From what I have read Windows 10 has a good anti-virus program included. Do I need anything else or will this suffice? I regularly read your column in The Weekly Sentinel online. I see on the page you had a ad for AVG Internet Security and you mentioned recently Emsisoft in one of your replies. Is this for older computers? Thanks, Mike Dear Mike, Windows 10 does come with a security program, Windows defender, but while it is better than no security program it would not be the only thing I would rely on. For years, I have used AVG, which is good, but recently they try to sell additional programs to their customers, which are not needed. For the past five years, I have used Emsisoft on my computer. Emsisoft does a very good job of protecting my computer, does not try to sell me extra software that I don’t need, and it updates itself multiple times a day. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, Thank you for helping your readers solve many computer problems over the years. I have Windows 10 and Thunderbird. Whenever I click on Thunderbird I get the following message in a box: “Mail Server Password Required,” and “Enter your password for XXXXX@XXX.net on imap.mail.att.net.” To send out an email I get the following message, “Outgoing server (SMTP) password required,” and “Enter your password for XXXXX@

SOUTH BERWICK Kelly Crowley’s honors precalculus students at Marshwood High School, Ali Arrigoni, Sean Williams, Jonah Nobel, Grace Ducharme, Alana Moretti, and Catharine McClellan, competed in the annual TrigStar competition sponsored by local engineer John Chagnon and his company Ambit Engineering, Inc. This year’s winner of the $100 prize with a perfect score in 28 minutes, 29 seconds was Sean Williams. His results will be sent to the state level where he could win another $250 as the state champion. He then would be eligible to compete in the national competition.

Following the competition, students went to the baseball field for a survey demonstration hosted by Northam Survey, LLC owned by Eric Salovitch. The general overview of surveying included a drone survey. Eric discussed the history of surveying, the math applications used in surveying and explained how drones are being incorporated in surveying. Students learned how a drone can be used to create a 3D map of an area for surveying purposes. He showed them how to find distances between two points (in this case the distances to the outfield fences from home plate) using more conventional surveying tools and two fixed points.

~ Arts & Entertainment ~ Rin Tin Tin Leaps Back into Action at Leavitt Theatre OGUNQUIT He couldn’t speak. But that was no handicap for a star during the silent film era. He was Rin Tin Tin, the legendary German Shepherd dog whose popularity rivaled that of any human performer when the movies were brand new. See for yourself on Wednes-

pector’s claim and stealing his girl. Admission is $12 per person with tickets available at the door. Rin Tin Tin films were produced by then-struggling Warner Brothers and proved immensely popular around the world, with audiences marveling at the thennew German Shepherd breed’s feats of derring-do as he outsmarted his human co-stars. Rin Tin Tin was so popular, he was named “Best Actor” at the first-ever Academy Awards in 1929 until ceremony officials decided on a re-vote in favor of human performer Emil Jannings. To improvise a live musical score for ‘Clash of the Wolves,’ silent film musician Jeff Rapsis will use a digital synthesizer to recreate the texture of a full orchestra. “The Rin Tin Tin films are great pictures for audience reaction, even today,” Rapsis said. “They’re full of fast-paced action,

great stunts, and above all they really move!” Rin Tin Tin remained popular throughout the silent film era and until his death in 1932, which made headlines around the globe. But his progeny went on to star in later films and TV shows, keeping the name before the public for generations. Rin Tin Tin’s descendants are still bred, continuing the bloodline to the present day. The ongoing Rin Tin Tin phenomenon inspired a recent book, “Rin Tin Tin: The Life and the Legend” by New Yorker writer

Susan Orlean. For more info, call 207-6463123 or visit www.leavittheatre. com.

Webinar: Hearing Enslaved Voices YORK Did you know that three of the earliest true-crime narratives in American literature originated in York’s Old Gaol? Between 1701 and 1738, the Reverend Samuel Moody and his son Joseph met with convicted murderers awaiting execution and published their conversations. Two of these stories feature New England Native Americans — Joseph Quasson and Patience Boston — who experienced involuntary servitude and enslavement before their incarceration in Maine. Historian Margaret Ellen Newell illuminates the stories of Quasson and Boston on Wednesday, June 23 at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom. Margaret Ellen Newell is a Professor of History at Ohio State University. She has written about the connections between capitalism and the American Revolution in From Dependency to Independence: Economic Revolution in Colonial New England, and about slavery and Native American history.

AUGUSTA As Maine continues its economic recovery from the pandemic, the Mills Administration unveiled a new program aimed at getting unemployed Maine people back into the workforce. The “Back to Work” program, administered by the Maine Department of Labor and the Department of Economic and Community Development, will provide employers a one-time $1,500 payment for eligible workers who start jobs between June 15 and June 30 or a $1,000 payment for eligible workers who start jobs in July to encourage unemployed Maine people to return to the workforce. The first-come, firstserved program will utilize $10 million in Federal funding and could reach up to 7,500 Maine people. The program comes as Maine’s economy continues to recover from the pandemic, with the state having added 11,200 jobs during the first quarter of 2021 and overall unemployment claims steadily declining. As employers across Maine seek workers, the program aims to accelerate the transition of unemployed Maine people back into the workforce and help businesses recover from pandemic-related business disrup-

tion. The program complements the Mills Administration’s ongoing work to provide COVID-19 vaccines, job development opportunities, and affordable child care to job seekers to ease the transition back into the workforce. “We have worked hard over the last fifteen months to get the pandemic under control so that it’s safe for everyone to return to work. Now COVID-19 cases are down, vaccines are widely available, and jobs are plentiful,” said Governor Janet Mills. “Employers across the state are looking to staff up, which means there are opportunities for everyone to work, earn a living and contribute to our state’s economic recovery. With this new program, we are providing another tool to accelerate peoples’ transition back into the workforce, protecting their health and their long-term financial stability.” “This program will help bring Mainers back into the workforce and advance our economic recovery efforts,” said Heather Johnson, Commissioner of the Department of Economic and Community Development. “With employers looking for workers, we are hopeful this program can help job seekers more easily rejoin the workforce.” To be eligible, people must: Have received unemployment compensation for the week ending

Wages Increased for Apprenticeship AUGUSTA Gov. Janet Mills signed into law a bill sponsored by Sen. Joe Rafferty, D-Kennebunk. The new law, LD 648, “An Act To Improve the Lives of Maine Workers by Supporting

Apprenticeships That Lead to Good-paying Jobs,” would leverage existing Maine Apprenticeship Program funds to increase apprentice wages. “A priority for me in the state Senate is making sure

May 29; Accept a full-time job that pays less than $25 per hour and remain in the job for a period of at least eight consecutive weeks, and; Not receive unemployment compensation during the eight week period of employment. The program began June 15 and applications will be accepted through July 25. Once the employ-

ee has worked for eight weeks, the employer will provide documentation of the completion of the requirement and grant funds will be issued to the employer to be passed through to the employee. The program comes after the Maine Department of Labor tightened work search requirements for unemployment insurance

York Chamber Awards Scholarship YORK The York Region Chamber of Commerce recently awarded the winner of its 2021 scholarship program. The $1000 scholarship supports local students seeking post high school education. The winner is chosen after an essay competition and interview session with Chamber Board members. This year’s winner is Emma McGonigle of Kittery, a 2020 graduate of Traip Academy. Emma deferred college last year due to the pandemic (the Chamber did not award its scholarwe do all we can to attract and retain young people in Maine. I am proud to say that this bill will provide better wages for hardworking Mainers who are looking for in-demand careers here in our state through the Maine Apprenticeship Program,” said. Sen. Rafferty. “I am thankful to Gov. Mills for signing this into law. This law reflects our commitment to investing in competitive, goodpaying jobs as well as our commitment to building an economy that can provide important jobs to Mainer’s, particularly young people, now and in the future.” LD 648, as amended, directs the Maine Apprenticeship Program to apply at least 75 percent of program funding toward apprenticeship programs in which the apprentices earn at least 1.25 times the minimum wage upon completion of the apprenticeship agreement.

As a Gold

cy room visits, as well as overdoses and resulting transplants. In comparison to 2019, the Red Cross has seen demand from trauma centers climb by 10% in 2021 – more than five times the growth of other facilities that provide blood transfusions. In most cases, those who have received a COVID-19 vaccine can donate. However, knowing the name of the manufacturer of the vaccine they received is important in determining donation eligibility. Through June 25, the Red Cross is testing all donations for COVID-19 antibodies. Testing may show possible exposure to the virus or whether a donor has developed an immune response to vaccination. The conclusion of Red Cross antibody testing represents a new, hopeful phase as the nation continues to journey out of this pandemic. June 19 is World Sickle Cell Day, an important day for the more than 100,000 individuals with sickle cell disease in the U.S. Most people with this disease are of African descent and will require regular blood transfusions to help manage their disease. Some individuals with sickle cell disease may require as many as 100 units of blood per year. Since the best blood match for a patient receiving ongoing transfusions comes from donors of the same genetic background, the Red Cross encourages people of all ethnicities to give blood and help increase the number of diverse donors so we can find the best match for all patients. Upcoming blood donation opportunities in York County include: Berwick on June 26, 8 a.m. - 1 p.m. at United Methodist Church, 37 School Street; Kennebunkport on June 29, 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. at American Legion, 102 Main Street; Sanford on June 8, 12-5 p.m. at North Parish Church, 893 Main Street. Donors are urged to make an appointment to give blood or platelets now. As a thank-you, those who donate through June 30 will receive a $5 Amazon. com Gift Card via email, courtesy of Amazon. Donors can save up to 15 minutes at the blood drive by completing a RapidPass® at www. redcrossblood.org/rapidpass or using the Red Cross Blood Donor App. Additional details are available at www.redcrossblood.org and 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).

Watch Out for Free Trial Offers of CDB Hospital Webinar Introduces New CEO NATIONWIDE Cannabidiol (CBD), an active ingredient of cannabis, is now legal in many US states and Canadian provinces. If you want to try the drug, watch out for scams. BBB Scam Tracker has received dozens of reports from frustrated consumers who thought they signed up for a free trial offer but ended up getting billed for hundreds of dollars. How the Scam Works: You see an ad for CBD on social media or in an online search. A company is offering samples of CBD oil. All you need to do is pay a couple dollars for shipping and handling, and you can try it for free. In some cases, the product is even endorsed by a celebrity. For example, recent Scam Tracker reports mention popular ministers Joyce Meyer and Joel Osteen. Unfortunately, if you order the “free” sample, the scammers now have your credit card number. As soon after you receive your sample – if you receive it at all – you are charged $80 to $100 for an ongoing monthly subscription. Cancelling this subscription is not easy! Consumers report that scammers used numerous excuses to avoid issuing refunds. They claimed everything from trouble with the computer system to it being outside the cancellation window. Many victims also told Scam Tracker that the charges continued even after they cancelled their subscription. “You don’t find out until three weeks later that you have signed up for a subscription and you are charged $99,” one victim reported to Scam Tracker. “They will not refund your money. They say you had 14 days to cancel (when you call them to complain) but there is no description of that on the website.” Tips for avoiding this scam: Research the company online. See what other people are saying about the company’s free trials. Complaints from other customers can tip you off to “catches” that might come with the trial. Check the business’s BBB Rating and see if there are any alerts. Understand what hap-

pens after the free trial ends. Always read the terms of the offer before signing up. Numerous victims of the CBD free trial con reported not ever seeing the terms and conditions. This is a huge red flag. If you can’t find them or can’t understand what you’re agreeing to, don’t sign up. Be skeptical of celebrity endorsements. Resist being swayed by the use of a wellknown name. Scammers often fake celebrity endorsements. Report losses to credit card companies. If you pay with a credit card, you can dispute fraudulent charges. Keep an eye on your monthly statements and notify your credit card company of any suspicious charges. If you’ve been a victim of free trial offer scam, please report your experience at www. bbb.org/scamtracker. By doing so you can help others to avoid falling prey to scammers.

provement (IHI) – in partnership with the American Hospital Association and the Catholic Health Association of the United States – the Age-Friendly Health Systems movement prioritizes what matters most to an older adult. The pandemic has increased the urgency among health systems to prioritize age-friendly care; from March 2020 through December 2020, 1,671 U.S. health care sites joined the effort, including all approximately 1,100 MinuteClinic locations, the retail medical clinic of CVS Health. This brings the total number of sites to 1,956. “The rapid growth of the agefriendly care movement means that older adults in Maine have a better chance at receiving high-quality, evidence-based care that is tailored to what matters most to them,” said Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, president of JAHF. “As COVID-19 has demonstrated, we must prioritize the care of older adults across all care settings to ensure coordinated, evidence-based, age-friendly care is delivered to those who need it most. We are incredibly grateful to IHI, our other partners, and all Age-Friendly Health Systems participants for their work to make health care age-friendly, especially during this terrible pandemic.” Participants in the AgeFriendly Health Systems movement in Maine as of January 2021 include York Hospital Center for Older Adults; Older Adults House Calls, York; and York Hospital Emergency Department and Provider Practices.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree (D-ME) announced the ...GRADUATE from page 1 McKinney with YHS alum Ally York opening up for him and a Jeopardy Game hosted by social studies teacher, Jeff Barry. “My favorite part was the hypnotist cause being a gorilla was hype, even though I don’t really remember it too well.” said graduate Luke Charpentier with a smirk. There was certainly no lack of food. Greenleaves Chinese food, Flo’s hot dogs, lobster rolls from Roundabout Diner, and pizza from Anthony’s were the main courses for the night. In addition, there was a cotton candy machine, a freezer full of cold sweets, coolers full of drinks and baskets full of candy. Graduates left the event in the early morning hours feeling incredibly thankful for one last night full of amazing memories with childhood friends. This was best summed up by graduate Charley Feugil “It was an awesome time and it meant even more to the class because we knew how much time and effort was put in to make it as memorable as possible”. Fellow classmate, Tamta Jologua, chimed in, “My favorite thing about project grad was spending time and getting along with people I don’t normally hang out with.” Britta Ayer, Yorkwise president shared that, “this event isn’t possible without the group of Yorkwise and High School staff who plan and execute the event as well as all the local businesses that support Yorkwise. We look forward to continuing this great tradition for years to come.”

Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) will receive two grants totaling $11,239,664 through the American Rescue Plan. The $5,599,279 Mental Health Block Grant (MHBG) and $5,640,385 Substance Abuse Block Grant (SABG) will fund mental health and substance use programs. “The pandemic has taken a significant toll on Mainers who live with substance use disorders or need mental health care. Behavioral health care providers have made it clear that they need more resources, and that’s why I advocated for the inclusion of this critical funding in the American Rescue Plan,” said Pingree. “I was proud to cast my vote in favor of the American Rescue Plan which will dedicate the largest aggregate funding ever toward mental health and substance use treatment programs.” The MHBG program enables states and territories to provide comprehensive community mental health services and to address needs and gaps in existing treatment services for those with serious mental illness. The SABG program allows states and territories to plan, implement and evaluate activities to prevent, treat and help more people recover from substance use disorder. This funding will also allow recipients to make investments in existing prevention, treatment and recovery infrastructure, promote support for providers and address unique local needs to deliver substance use disorder services.

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.

Kenneth Benjamin Wright, 78 WELLS – Kenneth Benjamin Wright passed away February 6, 2021. A graveside service with military honors will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 26, 2021 at Pine Hill Cemetery, Pine Hill Cemetery Road, Wells.

Dispensation from Obligation to Attend Mass Lifted for Catholics STATEWIDE Effective Father’s Day weekend (June 19-20), the Roman Catholic Diocese of Portland has lifted the general dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass and Holy Days of Obligation throughout the state of Maine. Issued due to the pandemic, the dispensation has been in place for Maine Catholics since March 18, 2020. In addition to the Diocese of Portland, the Archdiocese of Boston, Diocese of Fall River, and Diocese of Springfield, MA, as well as the Diocese of Manchester, NH, will also be lifting the dispensation starting June 19-20. As is always the case, the obligation does not apply to those who have serious reasons for not attending Mass like individuals

who are seriously ill, caring for an ill person, homebound, suffering from a compromised health condition, or otherwise unable to attend Mass in person. Livestreamed Masses will also continue to be offered at Maine parishes. Individuals with questions about any specific needs or concerns are advised to contact their parish. Pastors, who have the authority to dispense in individual cases, can be helpful in addressing individual fears and concerns. The diocese has been guided by experts, local and national agencies, and science in making decisions throughout the pandemic. To view updated Mass times as well as church addresses throughout Maine, visit www.portlanddiocese.org/content/parish-mass-times.

tivity. Some kitties crave calm and routine and Chance is one of them. He’ll thrive in an orderly home, with older children who are experienced around cats. Meet this stunning fellow by scheduling a visit to our shel-

We need volunteers at both our retail shop and adoption center.

Please call 207646-1611 to volunteer. Our Wells shop at 1784 Post Road also needs additional cat care help, kitty socializers and to do light housekeeping.

KENNEBUNK What’s better than summer in Maine? Summer in Maine with a new family pet! Late last month the Animal Welfare Society in Kennebunk launched a Summer Countdown adoption promotion to help our long-term dogs and cats find homes before the summer solstice. The countdown is now in its final week! Six of our original countdown pets are already enjoying their new lives with their new people, with three remaining at AWS. Will they be home by Sunday, the official start of summer? Sadie and Penelope seek a quiet, easygoing home with plenty of places for lounging in the sun or enjoying the fresh summer breezes alongside their people. Kingston seeks an active adult household with an outdoor lifestyle, as he is ready to be a hiking buddy and adventure partner! Can we count on you to help these pets get adopted? Kingston is a young and energetic mixed breed dog looking for an active companion (or two) for a lifetime of adventures. He’s originally from Georgia but is made for a life in New England as he loves the outdoors. He’s game for any type of activity – running on the beach, hiking on the trails, exploring the mountains, swimming upta camp, as long as he’s with his people. Due to his youth and exuberance, he would do best in a family with-

out young children. He’s so full of love and affection, you won’t need another dog (which would be good for Kingston, as he’d like to be your one and only canine companion).Because Kingston is part of our Summer Countdown promotion, his adoption will include a complimentary one-on-one consultation, postadoption, with a member of our training staff. Our trainers and staff have enjoyed spending time with Kingston since he arrived at AWS in April and have lots to share about his loving personality, training skills and fun quirks. They want to share their knowledge and help make the transition to a new home as successful as possible. So let’s get him adopted so Kingston can start off the season off right and have a summer to remember with his new people! Sadie (13, Dalmatian/ Greyhound mix) and Penelope (12, Clumber Spaniel) are a sweet pair or senior sisters who are looking for their new home together. They have been available for adoption since March! Wouldn’t it be nice if they had their dream home by the time summer came? These girls might not be as young as they once were, but they still enjoy all the

long, lazy fun that summer has to offer. Sadie is completely deaf and therefore gets comfort from having her sister Penelope around. Both girls have been together almost their entire lives and are a match made in heaven! They both love to go for car rides and snuggle up with their people. Sadie, in particular, loves to follow her humans around and can be quite clingy to both her people and Penelope. Both girls help each other navigate the world and love spending all their time together. They’re super sweet and still have quite the spring in their step! Both Sadie and Penelope have lived with other dogs, kids and cats in the past and have done well with all three, although any new animals and children should be aware that Sadie is deaf and might not like to be sneaked up on. As for Penelope, she has been known to occasionally get excited around younger pups and want to play, if only for a minute. Both girls are incredibly sweet dogs who would love nothing more than a loving home to call their own. Make their dreams come true and welcome these lovely ladies into your heart and home this summer! For more information, go to www.animalwelfaresociety.org.

~ Classifieds & News ~ Partnerships Take Flight to Save Saltmarsh Sparrows STATEWIDE Saltmarsh Sparrows, whose numbers have declined by more than 85% in just the past 15 years, will benefit from a multi-state Competitive State Wildlife Grant awarded to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife (MDIFW). The Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection was the lead applicant, with projects occurring in Rhode Island, Maryland, Massachusetts and Maine. Grant funds will be used to restore balance between tidal hydrology and the vegetated salt marsh to reduce water logging of our local marshes. Under this partnership, MDIFW will receive $113,000 to restore nearly 100 acres of salt marsh in Wells using a combination of techniques to rebuild marsh elevation and grow healthy salt marsh grasses. Maine’s coastal marshes link the land and the sea, but they also provide homes for wildlife, protect our communities, and provide a space for outdoor recreation. Our salt marshes have been slowly degrading due to man-made al-

terations, such as dikes and ditches, rising sea levels and increased rainfall. The Webhannet salt marsh system in Wells is the second largest in the State, and supports several rare species including the Saltmarsh Sparrow. The Saltmarsh Sparrow, a tidal marsh specialist species found only in Atlantic Coast salt marshes, builds its nest on the marsh surface just millimeters above the highest tides. Rachel Carson NWR has been monitoring Saltmarsh Sparrows within the Webhannet salt marsh system since 2000 and has detected a significant decline in breeding birds, likely as a result of decreased breeding success due to nest flooding.

Without immediate conservation actions the Saltmarsh Sparrow will face the risk of global extinction within the next 30 years. Restoration and management of Maine’s tidal marsh systems will provide for increased community resilience, healthier fisheries and abundant wildlife. The funded restoration project at the Webhannet salt marsh will showcase the use of innovative salt marsh management techniques to restore healthy marshes for natural resource practitioners throughout New England. The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is working with others to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. We are both a leader and trusted partner in fish and wildlife conservation, known for our scientific excellence, stewardship of lands and natural resources, dedicated professionals, and commitment to public service. For more information on our work and the people who make it happen, visit www.fws.gov.

Native Plant Trust Celebrates National Pollinator Week NEW ENGLAND Native Plant Trust, the nation’s first plant conservation organization and the only one solely focused on New England’s native plants, will celebrate Pollinator Week from June 21 to 27, 2021. Pollinators play a key role in the planet’s health, but in recent years many pollinator species have faced severe population decline. National Pollinator Week highlights the importance of these species and their critical role in maintaining ecosystems and biodiversity around the world. “Approximately 75% of both food crops and flowering plants rely on ants, bees, beetles, butterflies, bats, birds, and other animals for pollination,” notes Debbi Edelstein, Executive Director of Native Plant Trust. “Increasing the use of native plants in our gardens and outdoor spaces, and growing them without pesticides, will help create healthy environments for native pollinators. Plants and pollinators have co-evolved to benefit each other and the region by providing food, habitat, seed dispersal, and more. Native Plant Trust supports National Pollinator Week to bring awareness to the special organisms that help New England’s native plants flourish.” In recognition of the critical role pollinators play in our ecosystem, Native Plant Trust offers several educational opportunities and resources on the topic, including: Gardening for

Pollinators (online): Learn how to convert a yard into a productive pollinator habit; Planning for Pollinators: Casey Farm: This interactive workshop will guide you in how to choose native plants that encourage native pollinators; Plant-Insect Interactions: Improve your identification skills and explore plant-insect interactions through discussion and fieldwork; Creating Native Plant Palettes for Beauty and Biodiversity (online): Using sample plant lists, receive step-by-step guidance for this year’s fall planting; Designing with Native Plants (online): Discover the variety of native plants found throughout New England and learn how to design a visually interesting landscape that also supports biodiversity.

Pingree nominated Sullivan to the Academy in December 2020. “Acceptance to a U.S. service academy is extremely competitive and reflects highly on a student’s scholarship, community service, and character,” said Pingree. “Along with all the other Maine students I nominated, Kelly has demonstrated an incredible commitment to serving the country and a maturity well beyond her years.
