Memorial Day services pay tribute to those who died in service BY TED HAYES [email protected] Monday started off with rain but the clouds hid long enough to let Warren honor the memory of its deceased warriors in peace. And honor they did, from a Naval ceremony at the Town Wharf to readings of the Gettysburg Address and other passages at the Town Common, to a parade and a large presentation at the South Burial Ground. Hundreds came together for the holiday, standing one and two deep on Main Street for the parade and listening to guests and speakers, as well as a few local schoolchildren, at the town common and main ceremony at the South Burial Ground. Though Memorial Day marks the sacrifices of all those who died in service to the United States, Warren paid close attention also this year to some of its own; particularly to those who lost their lives in the Civil War. Guest speaker Frank L. Grzyb, who lives on Aquidneck Island and has written several books on Rhode Island’s Civil War history, told gathered guests of the very real cost paid by Warren’s young during the conflict. From Sylvester Easterbrooks, who was wounded at Drury’s Bluff in Virginia, had his right foot amputated on the battlefield and died soon after of gangrene, to Henry Jarvis, who lost his life in Virginia in June 1862, Warren paid as heavy a toll as any town in Rhode Island, Mr. Grzyb said. Members of the Mt. Hope High School Marching Band smile for the camera as they play a march heading down Water Street. Though he spoke specifically of the Civil War, Mr. Grzyb said the horrors those soldiers saw manifest themselves in all con- See MEMORIAL DAY Page 8 Aspiring artists on display Student artists showcase work for community PAGE 3 The voters have spoken, but one of the biggest questions surrounding Warren’s budget dilemma remains: What happens if Warren wins its school funding court case?

The only thing required in such a case is a 2/3 vote of the Warren Town Council. Four out of five councilors would have to vote to convene, but those polled this week said they wouldn’t vote against convening the meeting. “I think you would see all five councilors” voting to hold the meeting, council president Chris Stanley predicted. Determining what to do with the money is another story. At last Monday’s Financial Town Meeting, residents voted to cut the salary of the town planner and building official by 50 percent, and the town clerk by a lesser amount, to restore funding previously cut from the recreation department budget and the East Bay Community Action Program. With the exception of Mr. Stanley, councilors polled this week said they would vote to reinstate full funding to the cut positions while using funds also to reduce the tax rate to a more manageable number. Would she like to see those positions addressed? “Yes,” noted Cathie Tattrie. “We have one of the biggest projects in Warren’s position coming down the pike, and we need them,” David Frerichs added. As for the tax increase, “I RICHARD W. DIONNE JR. Warren Town Council member Scott Lial hangs his head as fellow councilor Cathie Tattrie, standing, votes in favor of a motion to reduce the Warren Tax Assessor’s salary by 50 percent last Monday. would like to lower it. We have never exceeded the cap. I would use (the money) to bring it Did you know? Just 266 (3.37 percent) of Warren’s 7,887 registered voters showed up at Financial Town Meeting last Monday. Sound low? it’s more than double the turnout of three of the last six Financial Town meetings. down, no more than 2, 2 and a half percent.” “If we are going to have a positive relationship with the business community as well as the local taxpayer, these positions are vital to our town functioning productively,” added Joseph Depasquale. “With the American Tourister project about to start, not having these positions staffed full time would not be fiscally prudent. I am also in favor of reducing our tax rate and bringing in new business to strengthen it.” Mr. Stanley agreed with others that a main goal is to reduce the tax burden. However, he said he would be reluctant to use any recovered funds to make the cut positions whole. Instead, he said he would favor putting the money in Warren’s General Fund and using it to offset the tax increase first, and to restart stalled infrastructure improvements second. “I don’t know that we’re in the position where we’d want to go against their will,” Mr. Stanley said. “People want to see some type of improvement with their dollars. Right now they’re not seeing those improvements. I wouldn’t be in a hurry to restore anything that they cut.” While a positive vote by the Superior Court could precipitate another Financial Town Meeting, it is within the realm of possibility that yet another meeting could be held before the end of the year. The town charter also allows a Special Financial Town Meeting to be held six months after the budget kicks in (on July 1) if five percent of voters in Warren sign a petition calling for it. 1590 Fall River Avenue (Rt. 6), Seekonk, MA • ritebitedental.com eastbayri.com 24/7 Warren Times-Gazette May 28, 2014 Page 3 Aspiring artists on display at Mt. Hope Student artists showcase work for community BY PATRICK LUCE [email protected] An impressive array of oil paintings, drawings, sculptures and photographs were on display at the latest art gallery opening one recent Monday night. And if not for the venue, a visitor would have little idea all the artists are high school students, or even younger. Mt. Hope High School hosted its end-of-year art gallery opening in the school gymnasium. Works from nearly 200 students created throughout the school year were on display, representing just about every discipline of visual art — with ceramics and computer graphic arts adding to those listed above. "We have just about every discipline at the school," said art teacher Lauren Enjeti, who specializes in teaching photography and graphic arts. "This is the culmination of all our shows. It showcases a year's worth of work. Even though you see them throughout the year, just seeing them all together, you just go, 'How did this happen?'" Hundreds of paintings and photographs line temporary walls installed in the high school's small gym, and tables are packed with sculptures from a simple bowl to a melting human face. Some artists, like senior AP art student Caitlyn Benevides, have a style all their own. "It's all done with my breath," Ms. Benevides said, pointing out her array of swirly, colorful designs. Using powdered charcoal and pastels, Ms. Benevides blows through a straw to scatter the colors in unique designs. She is also displaying a collection of oil landscapes, drawings and two self portraits, one of her as a baby. "I like oils a lot. I really love landscapes," said Ms. Benevides who plans to major in nursing at Rhode Island College in the fall. "I'm debating minoring in art, but it's just something I like to do. I don't want to have to do it for a job." The variety and the quality of the works on display is testament to the school's art department and the talent of its students. "The art department at this school is really impressive," Ms. Enjeti said. "The students' level of sophistication keeps increasing. I find I'm having to up the difficulty PHOTOS BY RICHARD W. DIONNE JR. Senior Kelsey Cabral preps a wall displaying her charcoal drawings. ABOVE: Olivia Resendes prepares for the gallery.

The students' work — along with a collection from students at Hugh Cole Elementary School and Kickemuit Middle School — opened with featured entertainment from the school jazz ensemble and guitar ensemble, and a ceramics sale to benefit the Rhode Island Community Food Bank.

However, she said she stands by her vote to cut the assessor, as she believes the position does not need to be filled on more than a part-time basis. She voted to cut, she said, “because I honestly believe that for the size of our town, the majority what needs to get done by that office is seasonal in nature, and could be done with less hours over course of the year.” Warren Tax Assessor Cathy Maisano earns $47,070 per year. She declined to comment. NEWS BRIEFS Spooked deer jumps through window Environmental police officers had to put down a deer last Wednesday after it jumped through a plate glass window in downtown Warren, severely injuring itself in the process. Police were called to the empty commercial front at 18 Child St. just after 7 p.m. for a report that a deer had gone right through the front window. Warren Police Lt. Roland Brule said the animal had wandered into the downtown area and jumped through the window after apparently becoming spooked. The animal survived the jump but was euthanized after officers from the Department of Environmental Management (DEM) were called The Bristol Democratic Town Committee will be holding a MACARONI & MEATBALL DINNER on Friday, May 30th from 5 PM to 8 PM at the Cup Defenders Hall, 230 Wood Street in Bristol. There will also be surprise guest celebrity entertainment. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased in advance by calling to the scene. Nobody was in the empty storefront at the time; it is just across from the former Samantha’s Pizza. 401-640-7391. Twist in dog case The owner of Gemma, the German shepherd mix shot by an unknown assailant in Warren earlier this month, got more bad news last week: The death of his cat. Warren Police Lt. Roland Brule said Monday that the Barton Street resident’s cat, deceased, had been found last week and taken to the Warren Animal Hopsital for a necropsy after it was found, “believed hit by a car.” There was no confirmation by Tuesday afternoon as to the animal’s cause of death. Gemma, meanwhile, is home safe and recovering after being shot in early May. Police are still looking for the shooter. Police won’t say what kind of weapon was used, but said the dog’s owner called police at 9:26 p.m. on Tuesday, May 6, to report that she had been shot at approximately 2 p.m. somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 Barton Ave. Warren police are working with the Rhode Island Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and are offering a reward for anyone who can provide information leading to the person responsible.

Opinion Page 6 Warren Times-Gazette May 28, 2014 EDITORIAL Tax man rebuffed A Massachusetts Supreme Court ruling in the 'Hawley case' is welcome news for all who appreciate the importance of protecting our diminishing supply of open land. The judges ruled that the little Berkshires town of Hawley had no business sending a land trust a $173 property tax bill for some forest it holds. The cash-strapped town had argued that the trust ought to be taxed since it hadn't done much to foster public use of that forest — what it really had done was carve out "it's own piece of tax-free private land." The trust countered that merely by protecting this land it was performing a valuable public service. It's a debate heard all over these days, even in Warren. Squeezed ever more tightly by labor and pension costs, unfunded state mandates and more, town leaders look for revenue wherever they can find it.

And they especially fret when that protected land is off limits to the public. In Little Compton, for instance, some complain that people have earned themselves a tax break by deeding away bits of their property — land that only they can access. It's a valid concern but it's also the exception. Land trusts like those in Touisset, and the Warren Land Conservation Trust, typically make every effort to welcome people onto the land. They blaze hiking trails, organize woods walks, help clean up invasive plants like phragmites from Jacob’s Point, and guide nature expeditions. They tread a fine line though. Their charge is also to protect the land and creatures that live there and would be failing that duty if they allowed visitors to tromp through nesting places or delicate vegetation. Had Hawley prevailed, the decision would have had a chilling effect on land preservation work that is already challenged by soaring land prices. Open space is among the greatest gifts any town can leave to future generations — taxation would stifle the supply.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Cutting vital positions will cost Warren Note: Warren Town Council member Scott Lial sent the following letter to the Warren Times Friday evening in response to an inquiry into events that transpired at the Financial Town Meeting this past Monday, May 19: To the editor: Your inquiry regarding the reinstatement of the funding for positions cut at the Financial Town Meeting is a critical one, and I feel it merits a response on numerous levels. First, I must say that the safety mechanism provided by the Financial Town Meeting is an important one, as it provides the voters a final opportunity to have their voice heard. While some might argue that it allows for special interest attacks on specific areas of the budget, that does not eliminate the need or importance of such a mechanism. The budget has gone through many reviews and iterations by that point in time and, while experience has shown me that little to no attendance throughout the process is the norm, we must still value and uphold the importance of this final democratic forum. That being said, the Town Council itself has had every opportunity to express its voice and concerns over every area of the budget. We have evaluated each expense line by line, arguing the merits of all proposed needs and services. As previously stated, all disagreements and discourse have occurred in a public setting for all to see. When all budget meetings are complete, the entire Council presents its budget to the people. This was done in a unilateral fashion with no opposition from any of its members. The Financial Town Meeting is not the venue for the Councilmembers to change their mind. It is not the venue to make political statements via a vote change. It is a venue for the townspeople to express areas of concern and interest as they relate to their tax levy. And while I believe the discourse in the room that evening purported to involve the issue of exceedingly high taxes, that was clearly not the primary concern. The tax rate was not lowered. If that was the true intent then ALL individuals holding positions not bound by contractual obligations would have been evaluated. All of those positions would have endured equitable scrutiny and ultimately equal reductions. Instead the focus was narrow and personal and undermined the very positions that are paramount to this Town’s progress. We cannot endeavor to develop our residential and commercial areas of opportunity without full-time employees in the roles of Building Official, Town Planner, Tax Assessor and Town Clerk. We have individual projects currently in motion that on their own will require the full attention of these departments, never mind the daily and weekly interactions required to support the needs of our current property owners. I empathize with the voters of this town and their concerns regarding an increased tax rate. I have spent close to four years on the Council favoring the reduction and level funding of expenses, unilaterally across all depart- ments, often times without support. We must always keep the taxpayers in mind as we act to finance the activities required to run this community. As the planning for the coming fiscal year began, we all recognized the need for a nominal increase in operational spending to counter all the reductions we have passed in recent years…reductions that were squarely aimed at combatting the ever-increasing cost of educating our children. Our proposed increase was under 3%, which barely covers the cost increases we are all experiencing across the board in this economy. The looming school budget was sure to carry us over the 4% State cap and it didn’t disappoint, taking our nominal 3% increase up close to 11%. We were again forced to make painful cuts to our operational budget to support the inflated cost of our education lineitem. These cuts were again passed by unanimous vote of the Council and left us with the 7% increase that was forwarded to the Financial Town Meeting. We will not be able to prosper or develop economically by allowing a singular expense to virtually undo our fiscal solvency year in and year out. Turning the crosshairs on ourselves and maiming departments of crucial importance will not solve the problem. We need to stay the course and maintain the key objective of economic development, while simultaneously standing and fighting for equitable rights and proper funding within our school system. Scott Lial Main Street Warren Times-Gazette May 28, 2014 Page 7 COMMENTARY Fred Massie: More than ever, divided and bitter Warren needs unity BY FREDERICK D. MASSIE I love my home in Warren, and I appreciate the many fine qualities and opportunities our town offers — from the agricultural fields on Touisset Point, to the thriving commercial scene in the historic downtown, and from the joys of being out on Mount Hope Bay and the Kickemuit River, to the successful new and established businesses and production facilities and the host of great restaurants located throughout the town. That’s why I have freely given many hours of my time to help protect what Warren currently offers and help set the stage for Warren’s future growth. So it was with sadness I learned about the actions taken at the Monday, May 20 Warren Financial Town Meeting, where a number of my fellow residents marched in under the banner of “Warrenites Unite.” Constituting a crowd of loud, we’re-angry-as-hell-andwe’re-not–going-to-take-it anymore residents, stirred up and spurred on by local agent provocateurs, these folks voted to gut vital positions in our town’s governance and regulatory staffing. Under the false impression that the modest salaries for the town’s planner, building official, clerk and tax assessor are unnecessary to the town’s present and future, these misguided individuals determined that reducing the pay of the aforementioned staffers will not only help Warren out of its current tax crunch, but also reduce the impending tax increase. While these stalwarts weren’t able to take down the tax assessor, they were able to severely handicap the positions and salaries of the town planner and building official. For all their bluster about needing to “take matters into their own hands” to reduce taxes, the same people then added back in to the budget nearly the salary equivalent they proposed to cut. The result? A laughable two cent reduction in the anticipated tax burden per resident from $20.09 per $1,000 in valuation to $20.07, while crippling two positions directly related to the economic and environmental health and growth in our community. Frankly, the attack on these three positions, and most particularly on that of town planner, stinks of a personal vendetta orchestrated into a witch hunt. This is appalling. The fact is, Warren’s current tax problems are directly linked to our school funding issue. Fortunately, our town, supported by the efforts of our town treasurer and town solicitor, is fighting in court to ease this school-related burden, and there is good reason to believe their effort will be successful. Unfortunately, the herd mentality of many of the attendees at the Financial Town Meeting allowed no time to consider pesky things like facts. Instead, they were bound and determined to run blindly with scissors — and, at least some of us know the perils of that folly from childhood — at specific town staff positions. As a result, they badly injured the town and its future. As a volunteer member and now chairman of the Warren Planning Board, I have worked hard to eliminate the “us vs. them” mentality the board reflected when I was first appointed. Over time, through the volunteer planning board members’ spirit of cooperation, dedication, thoughtful deliberations, and respect for differing opinions, those bad old days, at least on the Planning Board, are now a passing memory. More importantly, we have improved the board’s functions, and we are currently working to help stream- line and sensitize the regulatory processes that previously earned the town a reputation as bad for business. We are also working on the town’s new Comprehensive Plan, aimed at enhancing the residents’ quality of life and our town’s business climate while protecting the town’s best cultural and environmental assets. Truly, a good deal of the board’s progress to date is also the result of the outstanding professional assistance provided by Warren Town Planner Caroline Wells, without whose work, we would be mired in time-consuming and expensive delays. Clearly, the individual at the meeting who slammed the town planner for delaying the current, proposed, Tourister Mill development process, receiving loud applause from other uninformed folks, was speaking out of ignorance, as that process, in particular, is significantly aided and moved forward by the civil and cooperative discussions and actions of the developer, the planning board and the town planner. There are few things that will delay the proposed Tourister development more than pulling the rug from under the planner during the approvals process and hamstringing the building inspector during the permitting and construction process. On a separate but equally relevant note, the town planner has brought hundreds of thousands of dollars of outside grant money into town for much-needed infrastructure projects. The return on the town’s investment in the planner’s modest salary is tremendous. Driving the current planner out of town and leaving us without the wherewithal to attract another candidate is irresponsible. Sadly, there are some in town who refuse to follow the lead of the planning board. These people apparently thrive on contention, derogatorily using terms like “relative newcomers” to further factionalize an already disturbingly factionalized town. Fostering an environment of distrust can only end badly for the town, its residents, and its business climate. That said, I accept my own responsibility for the Monday Town Meeting putsch, as I was not in attendance at the meeting. My ignorance of what transpired is no excuse, but I know there are many other concerned Warren residents who also allowed this to slip under their radar screens. Given the severe consequences should this vote stand, it is incumbent upon the town council to call for another Financial Town Meeting where the votes of more, and hopefully better informed, residents may be counted. Mr. Massie is chairman of the Warren Planning Board, though his comments reflect his opinions and not necessarily those of all the planning board members. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Warren belongs to all of us To the editor: I would like to comment on the Warren Financial Town Meeting. Public speaking does not come easy to me so I am using this venue. As citizens we enter into a social compact that allows government to take some of our money to provide us with the things that we need to maintain our society. The question is how much of our money, which is the fruit of our labor should be taken? This is the reason for a Financial Town Meeting. It is unfair of elected and employed officials to belittle citizens for asking this question. It is unfair for these same officials to accuse tax payers of going after certain individuals within town government. It is unfair for these officials to suggest that the citizens do not understand the process of town government. Most important of all, it is wrong to act in such a way as to insinuate that one knows best how to spend the money of another. What is fair is for our elected officials and paid employees to remember that they are entrusted with other people’s money. They should not seek out or accept these jobs without that important fact in mind. The town of Warren is not a private enterprise. It belongs to all of us. Finally I would like to speak to the taxpayers of this town. Our form of government depends on an informed populace. Therefore we must also take responsibility and change ourselves. We can start by making smarter and more informed decisions on electionday.

Special thanks to recently honored Ed Theberge and the Warren Armory restoration committee, along with the tremendous support of our local elected and appointed officials, who paved the way for the dedicated volunteer group, led by organizer Florette Ruggiero, to gather at the much improved Warren Armory for the sole purpose of providing much needed funds for our animal shelter. This group, Friends of the Providence Animal Care & Control Center, in addition to helping Providence, reach out to help a different community each year. We are so fortunate that they chose Warren and that our community responded in great fashion once again whenever there is a need. The turnout was tremendous and a great deal of appreciation must go out to all the people who came to participate in this worthy cause. Mario Hilario, known for his “Pick a Pet” program on local NBC Channel 10, came to present the award in his name “The Mario Hilario Compassion Award” to Mike Briggs. Congratulations to Mike and a special thank you to Mario for helping to make this evening a success. Grace Barker Nursing Center & Willows Adult Day and Assisted Living, another established Warren business always there for Warren’s families and good causes, provided the programming, advertisement, meeting facilities¸ and respected volunteers: Karen Borges, Joan Alfano, Deb Thurber, Linda Pel- letier, Clemete Rocha and Cindy Mello. Patriot Wine & Spirits, a very classy organization, generously and unselfishly provided all of the wine and expertise for the wine tasting portion of the evening. Without their continued help and guidance, this would not have been possible. These two main sponsors used their business experience and true professionalism in guiding all the volunteers through the weeks of planning. As a result, the event was a huge success and the enthusiasm was outstanding. Crestwood Nursing Home, another well-known family run business in Warren that really goes out of their way to support our community, once again came through for this event by providing the very steadfast and caring volunteers Sandy Medeiros, Cynthia Creel, Martha Foster, and Stephanie Carvalho. The “Taste of Warren”, a longtime dream of former Town Manager and current Town Treasurer, Michael Abbruzzi, was made possible by Warren’s retail eateries featuring authentic culinary creations. If you were lucky enough to be at this event, you know about the specialties that were provided by all the fine establishments in Warren. If you missed it, please find time to come to the next one. These businesses were all mentioned at the event and their advertisements were prominently displayed in the program. Other area businesses that need our thanks and that provided specialties to create the perfect ambiance are also displayed in the brochure. Volunteers at our shelter, Rose Mary Oliveira, Anna Palmeiri, Jes- sica Gonsalves, Deidre Julien and Karen Lynch have been a tremendous inspiration to our community in all they do for the animals at the Warren Animal Shelter. Their time and efforts there and with this event are sincerely valued. The volunteers on the committee that worked diligently on the Wine Tasting portion of the evening are: Anna Palmeiri, Penny King, C. J. Audet-Kelly, Karen Lynch, Deidre Julien, Jean Bellm, Betty Brule, Sarah Golotto, Carmen Medeiros, Kirstin Flynn, Crazy Sunflower Photo and Nicole Narducci. This group assisted with so many tasks to help make the evening go smoothly. The attendees remarked how welcoming Warren is, how beautiful the Warren Armory is becoming, and how impressed they were that our community and its fine people have tremendous dedication, energy and selflessness. This special fundraiser that brought volunteers and local businesses together was another proud moment for Warren! Frank J. Alfano Milwaukee Avenue A limerick for Warren To the editor: There is a town councilor Who lives in a bubble She thinks the newcomers Are nothing but trouble How could she forget And I'm sure she'll regret Newcomers vote. Sheila Lawless-Burke Summer Street Girl Scout Troop 1155 was all smiles Monday morning. MEMORIAL DAY: Speaker recalled Civil War dead From Page 1 flicts: “Most, if not all, were naïve about the horrors of war,” he told the crowd. “Those who were fortunate to survive the ordeal and return home experienced a radi- cal transformation. Yes … they had aged chronologically, but what was less evident were the emotional scars they carried having witnessed what no man should have to face in a lifetime. “ “‘We have seen the elephant,’ they would say.” Warren Times-Gazette May 28, 2014 Page 9 AT THE EAST BAY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Coffee & Commerce at golf course on Friday Rise and shine with a networking initiative, Coffee & Commerce, on Friday, May 30, from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at Windmill Hill Golf Course, 35 Schoolhouse Road, Warren.

Warren Times-Gazette May 28, 2014 Page 13 Kickemuit nine hopes for state champ repeat BY ERIC DICKERVI T Z [email protected] The KMS Huskies completed their regular season with four straight wins over Jamestown, Riverside, Immaculate Conception and Gaudet Middle School, elevating their record to 13-1 for the season. The KMS Huskies’ pitchers have proven themselves on the hill, with CJ Casalino, Justin Gervais, Connor Padovich and Sean Gill, allowing an average of only two runs per game, collectively, while Caden Cabral, Joey Penkala, Cam Santerre, Zach DaCosta and Charlie Amarante have played outstanding defense all season to prevent runs from scoring. Slugging, Cabral, Casalino, Gervais, Gill and Padovich lead the team in hitting for average, with clutch hits coming from the bats of Nick Simeone, Josh Gale and Mike Belliveau. With the regular season concluded, the KMS Huskies prepare for playoff games, hoping to reclaim the state title they earned last year. Boys’ lacross bumped from postseason BY ERIC DICKERVI T Z [email protected] After a turnaround season in which the Mt. Hope High School boys’ lacrosse team finished 5-8 in Division II, the Huskies fell to South Kingstown in the quarterfinal playoff match-up on Friday, May 23, 14-6. The Huskies’ offense couldn’t get around the Rebels defense who finished number two in D-II South with a record of 11-2. Putting the Huskies on the board were Ryan Bartell and David Andrade who scored three goals each, with another five Huskies’ attempts blocked by the Rebels’ goaltender. Mt. Hope’s goaltender, Eric Ferias, managed to keep nine of South Kingstown’s attempts from reaching the net. Mt. Hope Lady Huskies fall in lacrosse quarterfinals BY ERIC DICKERVI T Z [email protected] The season came to an end for Mt. Hope High School’s girls’ lacrosse team on Thursday, May 22, when they lost in the quarterfinal play-off game to The Lincoln School, 17-7. The 6-5 Lady Huskies faced the 10-1 Lynx in the quarterfinal bracket. It was the second time the schools faced each other this season. On May 5, the Lynx took a 16-6 win over the Huskies. Mt. Hope was down 9-5 going into the second half and couldn’t find the momentum to keep up with the Lincoln School offense. Shaelyn Raposa was successful in three attempts on goal, as the Huskies high scorer in the game. Emma Pattie also kept Mt. Hope alive with her two goals, and Makenzie Marshall and Kelsey Mitchell added one goal each. Sarah Popham was credited with an assist, while goaltenders Taylor Perry prevented nine Lynx attempts from scoring, and Morgan Kane in goal stopped one. The Lady Huskies improved their record over last season and, under head coach, Kerri Ferreira, demonstrated an improved level of teamwork that resulted in several high-scoring tight games during their regular season schedule. Lady Huskies clean up at track meet BY ERIC DICKERVI T Z [email protected] The Mt. Hope High School track teams took part in the Class B Championship meet at Westerly High School on Saturday, May 24, tying for fourth place of the 13 teams, with 58 points, including three first place finishes. Hazel Baldwin-Kress, the top seed in the 300 meter hurdles won the event in a personal best time of 48.9 before adding a third place finish in the 100 meter high hurdle (17.2). Emma Pattie, the number two seed in the high jump, took first while clearing 5’1”, a personal best and school record. Teammate Kylie McPherson took fourth in the event with a jump of 4' 9". McPherson had the biggest upset of the day, in a come-frombehind win in the 400 meter, taking the race with a time of 61.5. Prior to this meet, McPherson missed nearly three weeks of competition due to an ankle injury. Senior, Marisa Silva, grabbed third place in the discus with a season best throw of 97’3”. Junior, Katarina Heyden, ran a 13 second personal best in the 3000 meter event (11:07.7), to earn a bronze medal. The remaining points came from the 4x400m relay team of Jordan Perroni (68.0), McPherson (61.4), Kaitlyn Costa (65.3) and Baldwin-Kress (62.3), who all ran season best splits in the relay to place third in 4:17. "Overall I couldn't be happier with the girls' performances,” said head coach, Andrew Sabourin. “Pretty much everything went perfectly. Even the girls who didn't place were very close to doing so. It was nice to see (McPherson) come back and perform so well." Seniors Baldwin-Kress and McPherson in the 300 meter hurdles, Pattie in the high jump, and Silva in the discus have secured spots for the State Championship meet scheduled for Saturday, June 7. Other runners will have an opportunity to qualify at the Mt. Pleasant Performance Meet on Saturday, May 31. At the Class B Championship meet, despite only having 10 competitors attend, seven Mt. Hope girls earned All Class Honors by placing in the top three of their events. Boys’ track The Mt. Hope boys’ team finished 10th of 13 teams with 8 points at the Class B Championship on Saturday. Again, Nick Murgo accounted for all the points by finishing fifth in the discus throw (130’5”) and third in the javelin (142’4”). Murgo earned All Class honors by virtue of his third place finish in the javelin. He, along with senior classmate Jon Perroni, will compete at the Hendricken Invitational next Saturday.

Navyn Salem, a Barrington resident and mother of four, is the driving force behind Edesia. Three generations of her family hail from Tanzania, an African nation with a relatively high rate of childhood malnutrition. With a background in business, Navyn saw an opportunity to work towards a solution to a global health crisis, while at the same time attacking the unemployment that is at the root of poverty. And there was a personal angle as well. “My four daughters have inspired me to want to take on this work, as our focus is on the most vulnerable women and children,” says Navyn. So she partnered with Nutriset, a French company that developed the formula for Plumpy’Nut, a peanut-based ready-to-use therapeutic food that treats severe malnutrition in young children. Navyn opened her Tanzania factory, Power Foods, in 2007, and not long after, it was turning out individual packets of Nutriset’s remarkable nutrition product and distributing it throughout the region. Plumpy’Nut has revolutionized the treatment of malnutrition because it requires no cooking, no refrigeration, is not dependent on a water supply, has a two year shelf-life, and can be given to severely malnourished children for treatment at home. And it works. During a crisis in Niger in 2005, some 60,000 children received therapeutic treatment with Plumpy’Nut. More than 90 percent recovered. Power foods was just the beginning. “I knew there was demand for these scientifically proven nutrition solutions from the US Agency for International Development (USAID) but there were no US suppliers to fill the needs,” Navyn said. (Federal law requires USAID to use only US-sourced products.) “This factor, as well as research and development opportunities, could be worked on more easily from Providence than Tanzania.” So Navyn opened another factory, here at home. Edesia Global Nutition Solutions was born in 2009, and in March 2010, the first sachet of Plumpy’Nut came off the production line. Plumpy’Nut, which is produced in several locations throughout the developing world, has become the gold standard for treatment of severe malnutrition. But Edesia also produces Plumpy’Sup, Plumpy’Doz, and Nutributter to treat moderate malnutrition and stunting, the most mild form of malnutrition. Since opening their doors just over four years ago, Edesia has reached 1.6 million malnourished children in 36 countries. Edesia’s efforts have been primarily focused on Latin America and West Africa and has responded to humanitarian disas- STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE Navyn Salem of Barrington is founder and president of Edesia, a nonprofit producer of life-saving ready-to-use foods which are distributed to malnourished children aound the world.

Today, with famine imminent, the Sudan is once again on Edesia’s radar. But in order to meet demand, their manufacturing facility needs to grow — fast. They are looking to expand their 15,000 square-foot facility to 85,000 feet, and dou- ble their labor force. And they want to break ground by labor day. “We must continue to have the capacity, the funding, the energy and the political will to ensure that children do not continue to die from something as basic as malnutrition,” says Navyn.

As I was sitting in the basement of State House last night in hour four of a House Finance Committee meeting I was watching the members of the committee listen intently to testimony on subjects ranging from bonds to the corporate tax rate. I will admit — a lot of it was boring — and I thought how difficult it would have been to stay engaged, appear interested and to ask thoughtful questions for even one session, forget about doing the same thing night after night and year after year. The familiar refrain about Rhode Island is that we have a lot of problems and most of them can be blamed on decades of bad leadership and corruption in the State House. Talk radio provides endless anecdotes and entertainment to get ones blood boiling and very few reasonable solutions. For better or worse, Rhode Island won’t change and the leadership won’t change unless new people are willing to step up to the plate and endure the extremely painful process of serving in state government. The stipend that legislators receive is small and the hours that they put in are long. I talked to one local legislator about how he did it and he said that he took his vacation time from work in hours-long chunks so that he could attend session and keep his full-time private sector job.

East Bay Life May 28-29, 2014 Page B3 POLI-TICKS By their actions you shall know them A spate of recent decisions by gubernatorial candidates tells us a lot as to what kind of governance we will experience at their hands. Here are some examples: Mayor Angel Taveras — A Providence school administrator, earning over $94,000 a year plus benefits, listed a degree from an online, nonaccredited university where she took no classArlene es or exams but merely VIOLET paid a few hundred dollars for her sheepskin. The School Superintendent decided to keep her in the leadership post until she earned a real degree. Mayor Taveras told Channel 12 News that he stood by the superintendent’s decision since he trusts her and has confidence in her. WHAT? The Mayor is a lawyer. He countenanced a decision to keep somebody in a position that required a mandatory bachelor’s degree, something the supervisor never earned. He should have referred the matter for investigation to his police department. Instead, he mindlessly backed up a poor decision. The supervisor resigned last week but, no doubt, will eventually earn a pension predicated on her last earning history in a post she never should have had. By contrast Ken Block, a Republican candidate for Governor, correctly called out this supervisor. “This type of behavior cannot be tolerated within our educational system,” he noted, adding that Mayor Taveras was asleep at the switch. “What type of message are we sending to students when we allow adults to cheat?” As for all the other gubernatorial candidates, they were mute. Treasurer Gina Raimondo — Governor Lincoln Chafee, with the acquiescence of the State General Treasurer, rehired as the state’s financial advisor one of the companies that is being sued for fraud, negligence, legal malpractice and a potpourri of other alleged misdeeds in connection with the 38 Studios lawsuit, according to the Providence Journal. Both “leaders” gave the go-ahead for this new 2 year contract. The Lincoln-based company had a pivotal role in pitching the merits of 38 Studios to both the then-Economic Development Corporation (EDC) and the bond-rating agencies for the $75 million loan. In its lawsuit the State avers that the company misrepresented or withheld critical information that likely would have been fatal to the entire transaction. So, as “punishment” the State will give the company anywhere from $175,000$250,000 annually depending upon the issuance of bond numbers and volume. That’s a nice piece of change for a company that the state says “knowingly made false statements about 38 Studios ability to repay the loan” and that the company “intentionally defrauded” the EDC. The lawsuit also alleges that the company misrepresented that there was a third party, IBM, monitoring the money when in fact, IBM reported only to 38 Studios and had no duties to the EDC. So, gubernatorial hopeful Gina Raimondo and the Governor have, in effect, provided quite a defense to the company when, no doubt, the company’s lawyers will use this new contract to contest the bona fides of the lawsuit charges. After all, the legal eagles will argue, why would Chafee/Raimondo hire a company if they really believed the pleadings in the case? Good question. A tip of the hat goes to former general treasurer Frank Caprio who is seeking to regain his seat for pointing out the obvious conflict of interest, a fact that seems to escape both Chafee and Raimondo. Remy’s return You may remember Remy from a couple of months back. This former stray, believed to be under a year old, has tested positive for feline leukemia. Though he has no signs of the illness yet, and is very lovable and affectionate, he needs to have a home all to himself with no other animals. He is a beautiful cat and deserves a good home — if you think you can give him that, please call the Warren Animal Shelter at 401/245-4569. NO FLUKE Big bass making their way into the bay Where’s the bite Striped bass fishing continues to explode. John Littlefield of Archie’s Bait & Tackle, East Providence said, “There are tons of small bass being caught in the Providence River off Sabin Point and Beach Road behind the Carousel (East Providence). Anglers are also landing bass Capt. Dave from the bridges MONTI in Barrington and Warren. Some are floating clam tongues in the current using a ? once egg sinker.” Littlefield continued to say a customer caught a 20 pound striped bass at Sabin Point. Mike Swain of Coventry caught a 39” striped bass live-lining a pogie (Atlantic Menhaden) off Barrington Beach last weekend.” said John Wunner of John’s Bait & Tackle, North Kingstown. Mike John Migliori of Newport caught his first keeper of the year (35”) in Portsmouth from the beach at 10 p.m. using native squid for bait. John said, “I knew it was a good fish from the word go.” Ken Ferrara of Ray Bait in Warwick said, “The fishing for school bass continues to be great in Greenwich Bay and Cove with some keepers being caught too.” On the RISAA blog Kevin Harrington reports, “Put a 38 pound, 10 ounce striper in the kayak at 7:30 a.m. (this weekend) in Mt Hope Bay (with an) incoming tide, with a light NW wind. Not another nibble though.” Kevin was using tube and worm. Tautog season ends for the spring at the end of the month. Big fish are being caught at Conimicut light, Hope Island and off coastal shores. Thad Grenier said he and friends caught ten keepers and two shorts to ten plus pounds when fishing an incoming tide at Conimicut Light on Sunday using crabs. Ken Landry has been landing tautog every day in the Hope Island area said Ken Ferrara of Ray’s Bait. Summer flounder is picking up offshore with the Frances Fleet reporting a strong bite for May. Roger Simpson said, “Best day of the (week) was last Sunday where the first angler limit was recorded and there were many fish in the 3 to 4 pound range. Monday had the week’s biggest fish with a seven pound slab.” Not many anglers The Tides* Wednesday, May 28 Thursday, May 29 Friday, May 30 Saturday, May 31 Sunday, June 1 Monday, June 2 Tuesday, June 3 Wednesday, June 4 Thursday, June 5 are targeting fluke yet as most seem to be concentrating on striped bass and tautog. Freshwater fishing is good. John Wunner of John’s Bait said, “The trout fishing in all the ponds stocked by DEM has been outstanding. Customers are very excited about DEM’s Golden Trout program. There have been a lot of anglers fishing for them.” Largemouth bass fishing has been good too, added Wunner.

Page B4 East Bay Life May 28-29, 2014 DOWN TO EARTH L May gardens require pragmatic editing ooking around my May garden I’m reminded of the scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail in which Eric Idle walks through a plague-infested village collecting a cartful of corpses. “Bring out your dead!” he shouts. I wouldn’t blame you for questioning my sanity and attitude Kristin but let me GREEN assure you that I’m not (very) crazy. Or (very) gloomy. It’s simply that that the world is showing sure signs of life now and it’s easy to see — and it’s time to tally — the garden’s dead. It helps to laugh a little. My Black Lace elderberry (Sambucus nigra) is the corpse that cries, “But I’m not dead yet!” I’m as tempted as the Dead Collector to knock it on the head and throw it on the heap anyway. Over the past couple of seasons I have noticed wilting leaves and I should have investigated because I might have been able to cure its particular plague: an infestation of elderberry shoot borers. If only I had removed the damaged stems whenever I spotted them and been more disciplined about pruning out the oldest canes. (The little devils pupate in the The cause of my Black Lace elderberry’s demise — an elderberry shoot borer. oldest and dead canes). Within the last couple of weeks, despite showing signs of life in the beginning, all but one skinny trunk has given up the ghost. And that’s beginning to show signs of wilt too. I found the culprit (one of many I’m afraid) tunneling its way through some delicious new growth. Totally gross. My husband just told me that his favorite tree is a bluer than blue 15’ tall, columnar Lawson cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana ‘Alumii’) that grew from a 12” tall cutting planted the year we were married. The very tree that has turned browner than brown over the last few months. I would curse a wicked winter if the tree were less hardy, but since it’s listed as hardy to zone 5, I probably only have a droughty fall and myself to blame for not soaking its roots back in September. Mea culpa. It was my favorite tree too. My Rosa ‘Mutabilis’, a beauty with clusters of single flowers that open cerise from orange buds and fade to pale pink, is what Miracle Max (from The Princess Bride) would call “mostly dead.” I dug it up on the first of April and replanted it to mark my dear dog’s grave. I pruned it hard that same day, along with a Buddleja davidii ‘Ellen’s Blue’ and Clematis ‘Roguchi’. Wielding loppers and pruners felt a little reckless so early in the spring but cathartic under the circumstances. If only I had remembered that the rose is marginally hardy to zone 6, I might have spared it my grief. But while it is beginning to show the barest signs of life (thank you, Nino) the clematis and butterfly bush, both hardy to zones 4 and 5 respectively, are dead as doornails. The butterfly bush hasn’t looked super happy since the last time I moved it (for the fourth time in five years) but it had fresh, healthy looking buds when I whacked it back. It was too soon to see any new growth emerging at the base of the clematis. I can only surmise that removing the protection of their winter stems left both otherwise sturdy plants wounded and extra vulnerable to April’s freezes. Mea culpa. Death in the garden is sometimes humbling but if we were demoralized by every loss we wouldn’t still be gardeners. The excuse to think about and find replacements is great consolation. I’m going to keep my eyes peeled for another slender blueneedled evergreen for the sake of marital bliss. But the birds and I have been wanting an arrowwood viburnum (Viburnum dentatum) for a while now and I might finally have just the place for one.

LYNN ANNE EVANS ear Dr. Evans, I adopted my Lab, Doodles, when my kids were little. Now they’re graduating high school, and Doodles — well, she doesn’t seem so well to me. It’s not anything I can pinpoint, but I just don’t know how happy she is. I expect her to have a hard time getting up, which she has for a few years now, but it’s more than that. She used to scarf her food, but sometimes I have to coax her to eat. When the kids get home, she may or may not bother going to the door to greet them; sometimes she just looks up, sighs, and puts her head back on her paws. I’ve had to put pets to sleep before, but there was always a humane reason, like cancer or kidney disease. I look at Doodles and wonder if it’s her time, which breaks my heart. How do you know when it’s time to say goodbye? Lou C. Dear Lou, You are asking one of the hardest questions in all of veterinary medicine. We all know quality of life when we see it, whether it’s a happy, bouncing pup playing with the kids, or a purring, curled-up mass of kitty contentment on the sofa, or even a sweet, gray-muzzled little old lady dog delicately crunch- D ing her kibble. But when changes come, they are often subtle. And we all know what to do when a pet is actively suffering and can’t be helped. It’s the pet whose quality of life is slowly seeping away who makes decisions difficult. To me, one of the biggest indicators of quality of life is engagement. I struggled with this issue myself when my nineteen-year-old cat, Duece, became less and less interested in being petted or brushed. She spent more time in her bed, which was in an out-of-the-way corner where she wouldn’t be troubled by foot traffic or the dog. Still, she always jumped on the bed when my husband, the dog, and I would gather there to watch TV or videos. I’ll never forget Oscar night last year; she just came into the bedroom and stared at us. I put her on the bed and, instead of purring and getting petted as usual, she just jumped down and walked away. In combination with some other factors, like weight loss and diminishing appetite, I knew that she’d lost all interest in going on. Shortly thereafter I made the very sad decision to let her go. A client once put it beautifully: you don’t want her to outlive her dignity. There’s a wonderfully helpful quality of life scale and daily diary at www.LapofLove.com, the website of a veterinary hospice provider. The scale helps owners assess mobility, nutrition, hydration, interaction, elimination, and engagement, ultimately helping owners come up with a daily numerical score. You can follow Doodles’ progress over time, which may facilitate the decision-making process. The scale can be customized to your pet, and if nothing else, should provoke thoughtful discussions within the family. It often happens that one family member is having trouble seeing the pet’s true condition. Consensus in the family can be a great comfort in a difficult time. It’s obvious from your letter that you love Doodles, and I can tell that any decision you make will be entirely in her best interests. If you have any doubt, your vet has helped untold numbers of families through this heartwrenching process and can be a great resource. My heart goes out to you, your family, and — of course — to Doodles.

Anyone who wants to run must file a declaration of candidacy by that date. In a lot of ways that day is more important than Election Day because some years, less than 50 percent of all incumbents have an opponent. I am a firm believer that every race should be contested and that every officeholder should be accountable for their decisions. This isn’t always an option in Rhode Island with so few people willing to step up. So, if you follow politics and think team Rhode Island stinks, step up to the plate and run for office. And for those that prefer to heckle rather than consider the batter’s box, remember the windowless basement room and the four hours of testimony. Perhaps you’ll consider a more constructive way of contributing to the conversation.

(More on that one next review). Hopefully you will spot something below that sounds interesting to take along to the beach or the park. Enjoy ... “Where’d You Go, Bernadette” (2012) by Maria Semple. This sharp, funny book brightened up the tail end of winter for me, even though some of the action takes place in Antarctica. Maria Semple was a writer for “Ellen,” “Arrested Development” and “Mad About You.” She has a wicked sense of humor and this book ranges from witty to outright hilarious. Bee lives with her mother, Bernadette, and her father, Elgin, a bigshot at Microsoft in Seattle. Bernadette is borderline agoraphobic. She has a virtual assistant in India, who even makes restaurant reservations for her. When Bernadette disappears two days before Christmas to avoid a trip to Antarctica, which was a present to Bee for getting perfect grades all through middle school, Bee has to track her mother down. The book is cleverly composed of letters, emails, bills, and other documents interspersed with Bee’s narration. “The Island” (2005) by Victoria Hislop was given to me by a friend. It’s just a marvelous book and winner of the Galaxy British Book Awards. Alexis, a young woman in London has always been curious about her mother’s life. But, Sofia never spoke of her past. When Alexis plans a trip to Greece, she wants to see the village in Crete where Sofia was born. Sofia realizes it’s time and gives Alexis a letter to present to an old friend, Fotini, who will share the turbulent history of Alexis’ mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Before visiting Fotini, Alexis decides to visit a small island just off the coast that was a leper colony from 1903 to 1957. She doesn’t realize what a big role the island played in all their lives. “Nowhere But Home” (2013) by Liza Palmer. As I started reading, I thought, here we go again. Small town girl doesn’t make it in the big city and returns home to Texas to try and pick up the pieces. But, then the story took an unexpected turn. Yes, Queenie Wake is a chef, but she takes a job cooking last meals for death row inmates. And, despite the typical mean girls clique, the relationships between Queenie, her sister and friends are real and heartfelt. And, even the mean girls have their problems. This is the perfect summer beach read, with discovery, forgiveness, romance, barbecue and big hair. “Isabel’s Bed” (1995) by Elinor Lipman. Love, love, love Elinor Lipman. I’ve been tracking down those of her books I haven’t read. They are funny, clever and have a certain elegance about them. When 41-year-old Harriet’s 12-year significant other, Kenny, tells her he’s in love with someone else and she has to move out, the unpublished writer needs a new home and her youth back. She finds it in a help wanted ad for a ghostwriter and an invitation to share the Cape Cod beach house of Isabel Krug, who wants Harriet to write the inside story of her foray into the tabloids. “The Expats” (2012) by Chris Pavone is not easy to categorize. While it’s a fascinating spy thriller, it’s also a psychological thriller and a thoughtful portrait of a complicated marriage — and it’s kind of scary how similar espionage and marriage can be. When Kate and Dexter move to Luxembourg with their two sons because of Dexter’s job, Kate leaves her job at the CIA behind and becomes a housewife and full-time mother, cook and shopper. But, she hasn’t lost her sense of when something is wrong. This sophisticated trip around Europe is clever and suspenseful. You won’t be able to put it down. “Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World” (2008) by Vicki Myron with Bret Witter was from a friend. While I have two cats and adore them, books about animals are usually not my cup of tea. But, a library and a cat seemed right up my alley. And, the book is a delight. It’s a touching true story of a cat stuffed into the night deposit of a library in Spencer, Iowa, in the dead of winter and the librarian who formed an amazing connection with the orange cat who would become Dewey Readmore Books, who charmed a town, then the country, and then people around the world. And, who could resist him. Just look at that face! Visit Lynda Rego on Facebook at www.facebook.com/lynda.rego where she shares tips on cooking, books, gardening, genealogy and other topics.

Portsmouth, RI 02871 Phone: 401.683.2231 Web site: igsinc.com 10% Off Every Tuesday! Open: 9-5 Every Day Fridays ‘till 6pm Container gardening is a way to enjoy the pleasures of gardening when you do not have the space or inclination to garden in your yard. It allows you to have flowers, herbs and vegetables up close to where you enjoy the outdoors. Here are a few tips. Choose good sized containers. The increased volume of larger pots provides extra room for the plant’s roots. Choose a soil mix that is well drained but high in moisture holding ingredients like peat moss. Porous containers such as terra-cotta, wood, and moss lined baskets allow the contaiers to breathe, thereby keeping roots cooler and providing oxygen for the roots. Make sure your containers have drainage holes. A ready source of moisture and nutrients is critical to produce good growth. Two products that help greatly are Osmocote, a slow release fertilizer, and Soil Moist, a material that increases the water holding capacity of your containers. Mix these materials in your soil mix for superior performance. When choosing plants, combine contrasting colors for an eye-catching display, or use related colors for a more subtle effect. Many vegetables like lettuces, parsley, or even cabbages make attractive container plants to add to your flowers.

Many couples who downsize their homes do so after raising a family. A home might be filled with memories, but downsizing a home helps couples save more money, and that financial flexibility often allows men and women to more fully enjoy their retirement. But in spite of the financial impact of downsizing a home, there’s more than just money at stake for homeowners thinking of downsizing their homes. The following are a handful of factors homeowners should consider before downsizing to a smaller home. REAL ESTATE MARKET The real estate market can be a seller’s friend or foe. Many sellers have a sale price in mind when they decide to sell their home, but the real estate market can be fickle, so homeowners should do their research before putting their home up for sale. Will the current market make it easier for you to get the most for your home, or will you have to settle for less than you prefer? How fast are similar homes in your area selling? When studying the real estate market, it’s also a good idea to study the market for smaller homes. If you plan on moving into a condominium but the market is not flush with properties, you might end up paying more than you want to for your new home, which might negate the savings you can expect from downsizing. FURNITURE When downsizing to a smaller home, many couples realize their current furniture is unlikely to fit into a smaller home. That means couples will have to sell or donate their current furniture and then buy all new items for their new home. If it’s been a while since you purchased new furniture, you might be in for some sticker shock on your first visit to the furniture store. Another thing to consider regarding your furniture is which items you simply can’t live without. An antique dinner table might have been the centerpiece for your family holidays over the last several decades, but there’s no guarantee it will fit into your smaller home. You may want to pass this down to your son or daughter, but that’s only possible if he or she has the room for it. Before deciding to downsize, consider your attachment to certain items Older couples must consider a host of factors before deciding to downsize that you may or may their homes. not be able to take with you to your new home and the emotional toll that find that it comes at the cost of less selling such items might take if time with their grandchildren. you’re left with no other options.

MEDICAL CARE Many older men and women must also consider the effect that moving may have on their medical care. Downsizing to a home in the country may make it harder to maintain contact with your current physician, and rural areas typically have less medical practitioners than more densely populated towns and cities. In addition, if you have been visiting the same physician for years, you may not want to move and have to start all over again with a physician who is unfamiliar with your medical history. Consider how much maintaining your existing relationship with your physician means to you, and if your next home will provide the kind of access to medical care you’re likely to need. Downsizing a home is not just about moving into a smaller property. To ensure you’re making the right decision, many factors must be considered before downsizing. The Sign you want.

The iconic Nayatt Point Lighthouse, built in 1828, has water views from almost every room. This home, situated on some of the most desirable real estate in all of Rhode Island, has been renovated from top to bottom and is better than ever. The house has three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and 4,866 square feet of living space, with sweeping views of Narragansett Bay. The Nayatt Point Lighthouse is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. A fourth-order lens from a lightship is presently used in the tower as an unofficial light. While the light is operational, it is not an official aid to navigation. The lighthouse was constructed by order of Congress and cost $3,500 to build, although a storm in January 1855 damaged it, and the authorities decided a new tower was in order. Two appropriations of $6,500 each were provided for the work in 1855 and 1856. The current 25-foot-square brick tower was completed in 1856. It was attached to the 1828 dwelling by a Kitchen: The interior of the home has been renovated from top to bottom, as seen in the kitchen. Lighthouse: Live next to — actually, in — a true Rhode Island landmark. Exterior: The lighthouse was built in 1828, on a perch with sweeping views of Narragansett Bay. one-story brick wing added on the building’s northwest corner. This wing was raised to two stories, with a gable roof and chimney in about 1905. The tower remains largely unchanged today. A door on the lighthouse’s south side leads to a cast-iron spiral stairway leading to the cast-iron lantern room. The Conimicut Lighthouse, an iron spark plug tower, was finished in 1883, and Nayatt Point Lighthouse was no longer needed by the Lighthouse Service and was auctioned off in 1890 to Charles H. Merriman for $4,000. Over the years, various owners have altered and expanded the building, but the original purpose of the structure is still evident. The home sits on a 25,000-square-foot lot on the outermost corner of Nayatt Point.

Variable mortgages listed are for 30 years, adjusted annually. Points are a one-time charge equal to one percent of the mortgage. APR stands for annual percentage rate and reflects closing costs spread over the life of the loan. CAP is the most a variable mortgage can increase in one year. Savings and loans and Rhode Island loan and investment banks are included in the bank section of this chart. These rates, provided by the institutions on Monday of this week, are subject to change or special conditions. For more information, consumers are advised to call the institution. First-time homebuyers may qualify for lower-rate mortgages from the Rhode Island Housing and Mortgage Finance Corporation. Many credit unions only grant loans to members and limit membership to a defined group. When shopping for mortgage rates ask for explanation of closing costs.
