Still Talking

By Eileen Brown

Most women reading this will nod in agreement that we do have special relationships with our hairdressers. More friend than stranger, a woman needs the comforting ear of a hairdresser who keeps her lips sealed when you leave the salon.

It’s a position of trust and for reasons known only to a woman’s heart, this trusted individual would rather keep her lip buttoned than talk about you. A woman, like a black Lab, knows whom she can trust. I mean no disrespect in comparing a woman to a dog. I love that breed and wish my buddy Dilly was still around.

I have been missing Valerie Bryant Jernberg since she left town on her version of a white stallion, a home on wheels. Her campy knickknacks are gone from her station next to the window. I used to make faces at her when I’d park my car; she’d greet me with a cup of tea and hang up my coat. Back to Val in just a minute.

When I visited Carla’s last week, I automatically went to the station occupied by Julia Kellogg, another solid-as-a-rock confidence builder and secret keeper. Julia’s leave of absence began several months ago when the doctor cautioned her and Paul, her husband, about the potential for a difficult pregnancy.

All went well and Julia and her husband have a new boy named James. Julia is working from home while recovering from childbirth.

I switched to her when it became certain that Val would one day leave and I’d be on my own. Clients are very loyal. Julia became a new friend who listened to me rattle on while she respectfully worked to ward off a miscarriage. She is all about love of family and cares enough to support me through my own personal challenges.

Now Val and Julia are chasing dreams beyond Carla’s Shear Inspiration. I miss them both. They gave me their trust and some of the best hugs on Whidbey Island. Val met a fellow at church. When she decided to marry Don Jernberg and travel the country, I thought “Good for them. Stop wherever you want, catch a nap, sing country songs and howl at the moon.” Our friendship will change, like biting into a dill pickle when expecting it to be sweet. It’s still a pickle but I miss the other. Val and Don have a new life around the next curve in the road.

Watching Julia’s boys grow tall and strong will call for her to prepare hundreds of meals. In addition to working at home seeing a few clients each week, she has her hands full with 8-pound, 15 ounce James. Son Justin, 5, is in training as official big brother and protector.

Change means progress and not everything about their departure is lamentable. I have been to see another hairdresser at Carla’s named Kirsten Laney and we got along very well. She’s another in a line of sharp, talented women.

Carla Dozier knows all about long-term commitments and women helping women. She has kept Carla’s Shear Inspiration buzzing for 33 years with the help of Val, Julia, Nancy, Pam and Susan, to name just a few of her dedicated associates.

We care about our sisters and whether they stay at home or work in a busy salon, their contributions should never be diminished.

What more can I say besides I adore these ladies and wanted to tell them so.

Didja, well didja?

Did you get to the hydro races last weekend?

I had no trouble finding someone who attended the hydro races in Oak Harbor last weekend. All I had to do was mention wanting some quotes from people who went, and my daughter-in-law Nadine Cushway gave

me the low-down. Nadine is an agent-broker with Coldwell Banker Koetje and also works with Graduation Alliance.

“It was so great to watch the hydros last weekend here in our little town,” said Nadine. “We have such a beautiful waterfront and it was great to bring the event here to show it off. Such fun to see the food/ people/beer garden/waterfront being patronized.”

She said there was plenty of waterfront seating and a break in the heat brought out beautiful weather.

“I hope it grows bigger and better next year,” she added. “I have already sent video and pictures of the event to my ‘off Island’ family and friends and we all plan to go next year!”

Got crows?

I am here to help, so if you have problems accepting those pesky black birds, maybe all we need is a bit of information. It is hard to imagine a more hated, misunderstood bird than the crow. People are unanimously against the wretched birds who disrespect our right to take a nap in peace when they make such a racket.

Crows and ravens belong in the Corvid family, which included jays and magpies. The American crow is most common, but there is a distinct species around Puget Sound called the Northwestern Crow, or corvus caurinus, a subspecies of the American crow. The Northwestern crow is found almost exclusively in very close proximity to Puget Sound and coastal marine waters.

Ravens appear similar to crows and are found throughout Washington, except where competition from crows and lack of nesting sites are probably too great.

In recent years, crow populations have expanded into urban and suburban areas, seeking plentiful sources found on roadsides, parking lots, ferry landings and other places where humans influence the landscape.

Crows scavenge dead animals and garbage.

They are known to drop hard-shelled nuts onto a street, wait for passing cars to crack them and have lunch. I know they also drop mussels and other shellfish in my backyard, a block up from the water, to crack at their leisure. Should the family dog find and eat this rotting seafood, get the vet on the phone as doggie will need one.

Crows have a unique family structure. One or more young crows remain with the parents through the next nesting season to help care for the nestlings.

In spring and summer, crows are usually seen in family groups of two to eight birds. During late summer, fall and winter, crows gather from many miles to form communal night roosts.

Much of the time, crows are seen in small, noisy, family bands. For about a month during the nest building, egg laying and incubation periods, breeding adult crows become uncharacteristically secretive and quiet. After the eggs have hatched, the parents become noisy defenders of their nest and later the young are heard wailing at their parents for food with an insistent, nasal caw. In late summer through winter, crows are seen in large, raucous flocks that roam widely. In agricultural areas, hundreds of crows may gather to forage in fields, while in cities, landfills and garbage dumpsters are crow favorites. Male crows try to impress girl crows by engaging in diving flight displays where they chase females.

A bobbing display is usually performed before another crow in spring and may be part of courtship. Improve neighborliness with crows by not making garbage accessible. Put a tight lid on your trash can and use a bungee cord or chain if necessary. Crows are early risers and will visit unattended garbage at first light.

You can read lots more about crows than I have room for here. Visit wdfw.wa.gov/ living/crows. Next time you meet a crow, tell him I said no noise between 1 and 3.

No, Mr. Lushwell, it was not the pop-top beer can. 1953 saw the conquest of Everest by mountaineer Sir Edmund Hillary, nearly a hundred years after it was declared the world’s highest mountain. He did this using a standard can opener.

cHickEn littlE anD tHE aStrOlOgEr

What do a person on a blind date and a man shopping for engagement rings have in common?

If your first thought was, “Ohhh, how sweet,” you are a naïve optimist who has never been on a blind date. And whoever yelled out, “They are both fools!” shame on you. The scar tissue on your heart has made you the naïve optimist in reverse: a jaded pessimist who would scorn an all expenses paid trip to Candy Land.

The blind date and the engagement ring shopper are like Acapulco cliff divers. Their next step will result in either “sploosh!” a clean dive or “splat!” a belly flop.

In preparation for the leap, cliff divers pray to the Virgin of Guadalupe. They risk broken arms and shoulders, hearing problems and blindness as a result of hitting the water at speeds above fifty miles per hour, making cliff diving a much safer activity than dating and marriage. Much. Yet, among the ranks of professional cliff divers there has never been a fatal dive. Perhaps the matrimonially inclined should consider praying to the Virgin.

If the diver, whether of the cliff kind or the hormonally driven sort, were to seek a divination prior to their leap, the card most likely to come up would be—the Fool.

Yes, jaded pessimist, you were right, but not in the way you think.

The Fool card in tarot, and its astrological equivalent, Ketu, are a warning sign that you are faced with the elusive obvious, the thing hidden in plain sight that you inexplicably have overlooked. The thing your hair dresser, bank teller and the ten-year-old who sells you Girl Scout cookies have all noticed but are reluctant to tell you.

The Fool card, as one may readily see, is the perfect friend. It knows all your secrets and can be trusted to keep them. It is there to let you know you are about to go on stage with your fly open and spinach in your teeth.

In the March 4, 1789, chart of the United States Government, we presently have Ketu, aka the Fool, about to hand Uranus a karaoke mike. For those who haven’t already said, “Uh-oh,” may I point out that Uranus is the rough equivalent of cat with a lit firecracker tied to its tail. Cover your ears, the room is about to get lively.

Ketu with Uranus in the US Government chart is not the bus to Candy Land. It is, to say the least, ominous. The last on-stage appearance of Ketu with Uranus was in the 1960s, when the duo played to a packed house of desegregation rallies, civil rights marches and anti draft protests. Uncle Sam might want to make a quick check of his dentures and trousers.

Dear Astrologer, All your talk about the Moon has started me thinking. If even a little bit of what you say is true, we live in a very strange world.

A Reader

Dear Reader(s), I love it when people think! Allow me to present the following to speed you ahead. (Nonthinkers are encouraged to tag along.)

Something was achieved on May 29, 1953,

1954 brought a similar great achievement, one thought by many to be impossible. It was—sorry, no; the elastic waistband was still far in the future, Mrs. Plumpley. On May 6, 1954, Roger Bannister ran the first sub-four minute mile. History does not record how he kept his running shorts on.

Great as those events were, something even greater was accomplished on July 20, 1969.

Yes, Mr. Cleverelli, humanity escaped its playpen! That was the day Apollo 11 landed two men on the Moon. Millions were listening as Neil Armstrong began his Moon walk with the words, “One small step for man; one giant leap for mankind.”

What happened in the years following these great events in human history? After Sir Edmond opened the gate, Mount Everest was topped again in 1956, 1957 and 1963. Today the mountain has become a commercial enterprise. By 2010, over 5100 ascents had been made by over 3100 individuals. Anyone with $65, 000 and the courage to risk death can now be led to the summit of Everest and back down by experienced mountain guides.

A scant six weeks after Bannister ran his record mile, that record was broken by another runner. The year following, three more runners ran under four minutes all in a single race. By 1960, 20 men had run the mile under four minutes. Today, the flimsy four minute “barrier” has been broken by high school runners.

And the Moon—what of the Moon?

The rational mind by now detects a pattern.

Human nature is coded to excel. Confronted with an inspiring performance on the part of a fellow human, the Olympic creed of “faster, higher, stronger” kicks in, igniting the desire to outperform the one who went before. Sing it for us, Annie: “Anything you can do, I can do better; I can do anything better than you.”

So following 1969’s lunar triumph, mankind beat a trodden path to the Moon and back, right? Heady with success, eager teams of astronauts lined up for their turn to go where no one had gone before, right? Mysteries and treasures awaited; we ran to claim them pronto, right? All part of the pattern.

Sorry, mankind; President Nixon and Congress decided America could no longer afford trips to the Moon. The last Moon walk came with Apollo 17 on December 7, 1972. That mission also marked the last time humanity ventured beyond low Earth orbit. We don’t even leave the backyard anymore.

Really?

Oh, but it gets worse. Adding insult to injury, Apollo 11’s 40th anniversary in 2009 saw NASA spearheading an effort to digitally restore the video tapes of the original live and televised Moon walk. But there was one small problem. No one could find the tapes! After three years of searching, NASA announced the tapes must have been accidentally erased.

Oh well, move along folks, nothing of interest there, anyway.

Really? The rocket scientists who gave us Tang© and space blankets cannot manage their video library? Come on, stop kidding around!

Human nature clearly involves something more than can be learned from observing mountain climbers and milers. Something to do with salt and pepper and a shopping trip that lasted 24 years. Next week we explore what that something may be.

Nine out of ten people can’t answer the question, “Are your sleepless nights sleepless because the sky is falling, or because Saturn is doing the Watusi with your Moon, again?”

Don’t be one of them. Send your questions, along with your date, TIME and place of birth (as listed on your birth certificate) to Wesley at planetbiz4u2@gmail.com. It’s fun and it’s free. You’ll also sleep better.

Letters to the Editor Editor, In case you hadn’t noticed, there is a newcomer to the state political scene who finished second in the primary race for State Representative in the 10th legislative district. His name is Nick Petrish. Nick is a third generation activist who grew up in Anacortes and now lives on Big Lake. He is a pro labor Democrat who is a hunter, believes in responsible gun ownership, and has many new and creative ideas on how to deal with the problems facing our state. Nick believes that people who work hard and play by the rules deserve a fair shot at the American dream.

Nick’s concrete proposals are in stark contrast to the tepid record of his incumbent opponent Dave Hayes.

Further highlighting this difference, Nick Petrish has been endorsed by his other Republican opponent, Brian Lillquist. In his endorsement, Mr. Lillquist emphasized the importance of having a representative who will actually do something! I urge you to check out Nick Petrish (nickpetrish.org ), and regardless of your political party, consider voting for him as someone who will work for the people of the 10th LD. Art Huffine, Oak Harbor

Editor, There’s a well-organized campaign, primarily in the United States, but also in other countries, including Canada and Australia, of bloggers, of people in the media, of basically professional climate deniers whose main goal is to abuse, to harass and to threaten anybody who stands up and says climate change is real....” - Dr. Katherine Hayhoe Climatologist and Evangelical.

In the last decade Exxon/Mobil has spent $27 million and the Tea Party/ALEC backing billionaire Koch Brothers $96 Million lobbying Congress and paying people to confuse the public as was done during the tobacco era.

So, even though we have reached the age of Climate Chaos, they are like the Wizard of Oz beseeching us not to look behind the curtain.

We oblige them because what we might see might frighten us. It is called information aversion and is part of the agnotological basis for our failure to act.

CADA Announces New Executive Director The Board of Citizens Against Domestic & Sexual Abuse (CADA) is proud to welcome Cynde Robinson as their new Executive Director. Cynde joins CADA after 30 years of international work with the US government and the non-profit sector.

After several years as a volunteer and Peace Corps staff, Cynde joined the nonprofit, Population Services International, where she directed prevention programs focusing on maternal and child health such as family planning, malaria, HIV/AIDS, diarrheal disease and domestic violence. Her work took her and her family far and wide to countries around the world; Senegal, Ivory Coast, Cambodia, Russia, Zambia, Papua New Guinea and Pakistan. While living overseas, Cynde and her family vacationed many a summer on Whidbey Island and thus, they knew when the time came, they wanted to permanently live here. Cynde and her husband, David Hunsberger, made the transition back to the US and Whidbey Island a year ago. Their two daughters currently live and work in Washington DC. The CADA Board is thrilled such a talented professional and committed leader has taken over the helm of Island County’s only accredited domestic violence and sexual assault agency.

CADA provides free, confidential assistance for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, rape, child sexual abuse and sexual harassment. Services include crisis intervention, advocacy-based counseling, legal advocacy, medical advocacy, emergency shelter, support groups, parenting classes and community education and prevention.

Senior Community Thrift Parking Lot Sale

When I lecture in the classroom I ask the children a few simple questions: Why is Venus, which is twice as far from the sun as Mercury, 2.6 times as hot? A: an atmosphere of CO2.

Then I ask them if it is hotter inside or outside a greenhouse and why? A: the glass does not block the solar radiation but does the infrared trying to escape just as CO2 does in our atmosphere. Then I’ll explain that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has increased the probability that the global warming crisis is human caused to 97% and ask, if they went to a casino and were told they would lose 97% of the time would they bet? The kids get it.

On Sept. 1, we observe Labor Day — a celebration of the American worker. Of course, you work hard at your own job, but, when you think of it, every worthwhile endeavor in life requires significant effort — and that’s certainly the case with investing.

The harder you work at it, the more likely you are to make progress toward your goals.

So as you think about investing, consider the following areas in which you will need to apply yourself: • Work to identify your goals. It’s important that you know just why you’re investing. Do you want to send your children (or grandchildren) to college? Do you want to retire early?

What sort of retirement lifestyle do you envision? What kind of legacy do you want to leave? Identifying your financial goals is the necessary first step toward achieving them.

• Work to know your own risk tolerance.

It’s essential that you know your own investment personality — that is, how much risk you can comfortably handle. If you think you can handle a relatively high level of risk, but you find yourself worrying excessively over every drop in the market, you may need to re-evaluate your risk tolerance and adjust your investment habits. Conversely, if you believe yourself to be highly risk-avoidant, but you find yourself frustrated over the relatively low returns you get from conservative investments, you may need to revise your thinking — and your actions.

• Work to avoid bad habits. Many investors chase after “hot” stocks or try to “time” the market. However, hot stocks can cool off quickly, while efforts to predict market highs and lows are doomed to fail — because no one can accurately forecast those points. You will want to be especially diligent about learning to look past the headlines and beyond short-term price movements in the financial markets — because too many people overreact to these events. If you can avoid these bad investment habits, you’ll be doing yourself a favor.

• Work to follow a consistent investment strategy. If you invest over the course of several decades, you are going to see a lot of ups and downs in the financial markets. And when the markets get choppy, you may be tempted to take a “time out” from investing.

But if you do this repeatedly, you will certainly interrupt the progress you need to make toward your financial goals. If you can develop the discipline to follow a consistent investment strategy and to keep investing in all types of markets, you have a pretty good chance of “smoothing out” the effects of market volatility over time. And, as a bonus, you’ll be far less likely to concern yourself over day-to-day price fluctuations.

• Work to review your progress. Along with your financial advisor, consistently review your progress toward your goals. Your investment professional should establish your portfolio review frequency and meet with you to discuss your investments at least once a year.

So, there you have it — some ideas on how you can work to be a better investor.

On Track with Jim Freeman

With less than a week to go before next week’s sarcasm, we better get started with this week’s.

As we have all learned from First Lady Nancy Reagan’s campaign for literacy, “ a mind is a terrible thing to recycle.�

Nevada Terrorists?

I heard a noise just now which caused me to awake from a nap. Of course, the turkey-cheddarhold-the-Swiss-dip sandwich which I just scarfed at our hometown Freeland CafĂŠ may have helped cause the nap. Thanks, Lori!

Or maybe it was the lunchtime stories of Bob Moliter, long-time bedtime story-teller.

Regardless, hearing a noise to awaken from a deep sleep, no matter how induced, can rattle one’s cage.

I looked out the caboose window to see a red passenger van parked at the bottom of my driveway.

Thinking I may be receiving visitors, I told the three bunnies on my porch to stop chewing their carrots and go floss.

We might be having company.

Given the warmth of the temperature outside, I did not think we would be having a drive-by religious solicitation this time of the day. Additionally, the last time someone with religious pamphlets knocked on my caboose door, I broke out my old judicial robe, grabbed my Bible, and started singing “Whiskey River� like Elmer Gantry.

Hearing no approaching footsteps on my Lummi Island gravel, I walked closer to the red passenger van which was blocking my driveway.

Through the trees, I saw four women seated at my Tom Kennedy designed picnic table, nestled under a hundred year young Acer macrophyllum tree.

Could these figures actually be The Four Men of the Apocalypse cross-dressing?

Fearing for my own safety, and that of the three bunnies, the buck and the doe in my yard, I decided to run a single envelopment on the unknown visitors from within my pick-up truck.

In the Marine Corps, we might have used an entire platoon or at least a couple of squads, but, that turkey-cheddar-hold-the Swiss-dip sandwich had empowered me to feel fearless.

Manning my partial-terrain, two wheel drive 1986 Chevy Durango, I drove down my driveway as surreptitiously as my front bald tires would allow.

Immediately, what appeared to be a slender woman, Caucasian, in walking shorts, ran to the van for a quick back up so I could engineer around her Nevada plated vehicle.

Could this be a mob hit awaiting execution?

Was I the target, or were these women bunny hunting?

As I circled the picnic table in a military manner, I rolled down my driver’s side window. “Welcome to the neighborhood!�, I said.

Another one of the women, seemingly startled, responded in a thick, Baltic sea accent–�Yes.�

Could they be terrorists-in-waiting?

Could they be tourists picnicking?

Two other women began folding big sacks, depositing what appeared to be sandwich wrappers, into smaller sacks.

As I drove toward my neighbor Steve’s ranch, I saw what appeared to be a thin man coming out of the blackberry bushes.

Was he with these women, or hiding from them?

Could he have been seeing a man about a horse?

Could he have been pilfering blackberries from my non-easement?

Having read The Art of War some years ago, I did not recall if I was to “divide and conquer� in this situation, or take a tip from my wild bunnies to “multiply and retreat.�

By the time I had driven back down the driveway of my neighbors, the red van was facing the exit.

The four women and man, looking ahead, did not maintain eye contact with me as I began to hum “The Battle Hymn of The Republic�, watching their Nevada plated passenger van proceed toward the Freeland Wetlands parking area, just a few yards from Petosa Roasta, coming to a food truck near me.

If you are confused with this, do not be.

I will be back in a minute after I post some No Commie signs in my driveway.

It certainly is a good thing I majored in Political Science in undergraduate school. That Soviet Civilization class with Dr. Will Adams really helped me pin down those Baltic Sea accents.

From a Reader A few years ago on a Saturday afternoon, my wife and I were working outside, clearing berry bushes, nettles and the like. We had just finished for the day and my wife took off her long gauntlet gloves.

That is when something stung or bit her on the back of her hand. She said it was like fire. Within minutes, her hand began to swell. We got cleaned up and had dinner. She sat with an ice pack on the reddened area of attack.

Sunday morning, when she woke up, her arm was swollen from the first knuckles on her hand to just beyond her elbow. It was time for the trip to Coupeville and Whidbey General Emergency. We covered the badly swollen appendage with a large towel because the sunshine made it sting. Also, it resembled a bologna chub from the glass case of your local deli.

Upon arriving at the hospital, we went to the front desk.

The woman there asked, “And what are we here for today?�

I responded, “My wife got stung or bit on her right hand and it is swollen.�

She retrieved some papers and clipboard and asked, “Okay, may I see?�

I removed the towel, to which, she replied, “OH MY! Please cover that up and wait in that little room.�

Once there, another woman came in and noticed not even our name was on the forms. This woman asked the same question, “Why are we here today?�

I told her and removed the towel.

Her response was a look of horror and she asked us to cover up the arm and follow her.

We were put in a room in the emergency section.

The nurse came in and immediately noticed‌none of the paperwork was filled in.

She asked the second woman if she was going to stay and get the information. “No, I have already seen it. And I don’t want to see it again!,� was her parting reply.

The nurse asked, “What is wrong?�

I removed the towel.

The nurse looked at the arm which is now swollen almost to the shoulder.

Her response, “Okay. Well that looks very painful.

You may cover it, if you wish. I just need a few bits of information and I will let your husband fill out the rest.�

After getting vital signs and quick notes of possible allergic reactions, she gave my wife a small metal table to rest her arm and exited indicating the doctor would be in shortly.

The doctor entered the room and said, “So you got a little bitty bug bite. Let’s take a look.� He removed the towel from her arm. He leaned back against the counter in what could only be described as a look of shock and disbelief.

His comment was, “Damn, lady, that is ugly. Cover it up!� He consulted the notes the nurse made and turned to issue instructions, but the nurse was standing in the doorway with the four syringes of the stuff he was going to request (smart girl).

Three hours later, we were on our way home.

Today, we smile when we think of the “learning experience� we were able to impart upon the staff of our local hospital, early on a peaceful Sunday morning.

A side note about my wife’s bug bite. The emergency room nurse told us–“Applying a cold pack to reduce swelling caused more problems. Her body generated antibodies to fight the infection and the blood system would have swiftly distributed the antibodies, but the cold packs slowed down the response. We should have applied heat, such as a heating pad, etc.�

Moral of the story–If your arm ever looks like a chub of bologna, take a picture, put it on Facebook, and ask your friends to help make you famous.

Who knows?

With enough hits, your bologna could go viral.

Mrs. Santella was born in Northbridge, MA on October 26, 1912, one of seven children of the late Adelard and Marie Rose (Provencal) Bazinet. She was raised in the Fisherville section of South Grafton, MA. At the age of 16, she went to work as a weaver at the Fisher Woolen Mill in Fisherville where she worked until her marriage to Homer A. Brewer in 1934. The family then moved to Millbury, MA. After Mr. Brewer died in 1948, Cecile was forced to return to work in order to support her four children.

She took a very hazardous job as a machine operator at New England Plating, a chrome plating company in Worcester, MA, where she worked until 1958. At the age of 47, she returned to school, receiving her certification as a Licensed Practical Nurse, and began work at the former Grafton State Hospital in North Grafton, MA. In 1961, she married Nicola Santella and moved to Marlborough, MA, where she lived until her retirement in 1968. Following retirement, she and Nick moved to Deltona, FL. After Mr. Santella died in 1993, she

remained in Deltona until 2002 when she moved to Oak Harbor to live with her son, Paul, and his wife, Flo. When Mrs. Santella celebrated her centennial and was asked how she had lived so long, she replied “Hard work never killed anybody.” She especially enjoyed word-find puzzles, playing bingo, and watching her favorite TV game shows; The Price Is Right and Wheel of Fortune, all of which helped her keep a sharp mind.

She was a member of St. Augustine’s Catholic Church in Oak Harbor.

She leaves a son, Master Chief Petty Officer Paul F. Brewer, USN (Ret.) and his wife, Florence G. (Garcia) Brewer of Oak Harbor; a daughter, Ann C. Malin of Citrus Springs, FL; 16 grandchildren; 34 great grandchildren; 11 great-great grandchildren; nephews and nieces. In addition to her parents and her two spouses, she was predeceased by 2 sons: Homer A. Brewer of Sutton, MA, and Norman J. Brewer of Deltona; 3 sisters: Clara Spadea, Blanche Bergantine, and Irene Pearson; and 3 brothers: Arthur, George, and Paul Bazinet.

A funeral mass was celebrated Thurs. Aug. 21 at St. Brigid’s Catholic Church in Millbury, MA. Burial followed in St. Brigid’s Cemetery. Massachusetts arrangements were carried out by Turegon Funeral Home. Local arrangements were entrusted to Wallin Funeral Home. Please visit Cecile’s page in the Book of Memories at www.wallinfuneralhome.com to share memories and condolences for the family.
