Well, I have been on hiatus of sort for my
editorial dribble. I do kind of miss it. It is my
weekly therapy. Although, it is really my own
fault, as I have been on my own Pee Wee’s
Big Adventure-- yes I am dating myself!

has been an adventure for sure, sometime
misadventure, fuelled with my will, determination
and stubbornness to keep moving forward. I
government, and yes guys, I did say that I would
not write about it, but guess what, I had to write
about the positive that I had experienced. As
many of you know, I avoid, or at least try to avoid
at all cost, political stuff, but tonight the tables
turned on me, as my heartburn set in, and I sat in
and nerves to the tipping point, as neighbors
were in their second round of deliberations-- it
was my turn. I was pleasantly relieved, in a big
way, that my hearing went so well. Sometimes,
it just takes a little calmness and stopping to ask
the right questions to get the honest answers.
Sometimes, a conversation of understanding
is all it takes. Thanks to the unsung volunteers
of local, small-town government volunteering
your time. It is a tough job that I will avoid with a
contamination suit. I am not one for rules, at all,
but I will respectively accept the need for some.

It’s truly getting to be back to school time, and
even though I hate to see summer come to an
end, I always get excited about a new school
year and seeing my colleagues and how the
students have changed. Sending good wishes
out to everyone headed back to school, kids
and adults alike. Like I have said many times
already, I still plan on enjoying what we have
left of summer. There are many more sunsets
to view, backyard barbecues to be had, jumps
in the pool, sand in my toes, gardens to weed,
and ahhh, so much more. Don’t forget about the
Alburgh Summerfest this coming Saturday. The
ABC team has been working hard to put together
a day of fun and excitement. Check out the
details below! Have a great week of summer in

had the lowest net scores on the remaining
twelve. The winners were: (1) Lousie Sauve, (2)
Carol Crothers and Marty Dale (4) Sue Jacques.
Louise Sauve chipped in on the Par 4, 4th hole for
a birdie! We’re having a special “do” on Thursday,

To the Editor:
I am writing
to urge voters to
choose experience
over smear tactics
in
this
year’s
primary election for
Grand Isle State’s
Attorney. Re-elect
David Miller to this
position because
we need someone
will have the experience, and guts, to uphold
our legal system and protect us from the worst
crimes.
My husband, who is an attorney, also supports
Miller because “he is the toughest litigator I’ve
ever faced.” Miller combines this toughness with
decades of experience that guide him when
compassion may be in order. Sometimes it’s best
for everyone if a case is dismissed. But when it
comes to being tough, Miller has the experience
to recognize when a case should go to trial.
We live in what appears to be a peaceful
community with little or no crime other than
DUIs. But at times, fate steps in, and we are
embroiled in nationally-covered crimes that
make today’s true crime TV shows pale. Early
"…
arson case that rocked our community, followed
quickly by a mother drowning her son in Lake
Champlain. Once in a lifetime cases? Yes. But
we were lucky. We had a tough litigator on our
side prepared for the very worst that could be
thrown at him.
I question whether his opponent, with perhaps
two years of experience in practicing law, would
have been up to such a challenge. He barely
meets the requirements for Staff Attorney I,
>=*
= which, I should point out, pays less than $20
per hour. At this entry level, and the next (with
= † require to work under the direct supervision of
Z]X
a murder trial. Experience matters. Not only in
bureaucratic human resources tables, but in real
life. There is a reason they call it the “practice” of
law. We need a man like David Miller to be our
litigator against crime. Re-elect experience. Reelect David Miller for Grand Isle State’s Attorney.
Sincerely,
Mary Senior Harwood
South Hero
To the Editor:
When I went to the North Hero Court House
forum of the candidates for State Attorney
of Grand Isle County, I was not sure which
candidate I preferred. Both candidates struck me
as competent lawyers willing to do an important
job. But my preference became clear when
responses were made to the question: “What is
the toughest part of the State Attorney’s job?”
Mr. Miller addressed the complicated
procedural issues state attorneys must handle,
but he didn’t make it clear to me why that would
be the toughest part of the job. Mr. DiSabito said
that the toughest part of the job comes when
working with victims. He noted that some victims
want to “throw the book” at the accused while
other victims have a certain reluctance when it
bringing a neighbor or relative to justice. (Cases
of rape and/or incest come to mind as examples
of situations where victims might hesitate to
come forth.)
I was impressed that Mr. DiSabito recognized
that being fair to both victims and alleged criminals
can be tough, and I saw in him a willingness to
go the extra mile should he become the Grand
Isle County State Attorney. I will vote for Doug
DiSabito even as I thank David Miller for his
years of public service.

To the Editor,
Mr. DiSabito is asking us to elect him and make him
responsible for deciding when criminal charges are
brought. I attended the State’s Attorney candidate
forum last Tuesday and was utterly appalled when
Doug DiSabito accused David Miller and David
Carter of corruption.
Mr. Miller and Mr. Carter are upstanding citizens
in our community and Mr. DiSabito threw out
a baseless accusation that there was a Quid Pro
Quo dismissal of criminal charges for one of Mr.
Carter’s clients. The accusation shows a deep lack
of judgment, respect, maturity, and propriety. If
he is willing to besmirch the reputations of two
people like Mr. Carter and Mr. Miller based on zero
evidence, he has no business judging what criminal
indictments are brought to bear.

To the Editor:
Four years ago I served as a juror in Grand Isle
>?
of our State’s Attorney, David Miller. His presence
immediately assured me that justice would be
served. I listened carefully to the details of the
case and arrived at my decision, that “beyond a
shadow of doubt”, I was prepared to render my
decision. David’s respect and passion for the law,
his understanding of the actions of criminals and
the vulnerability of victims was crystal clear. I
had done my civic duty and I was proud of our law
'? ' @ ?
'''JK
dedicated, experienced lawyer demonstrate the true
nature of our legal system. No piece of evidence
was missing, the case was concluded. The judicial
system in Grand Isle County was to be honored.
Four years later, Mr. Miller enters into a primary
election for the position he deserves. He is not a
politician, he does not develop policy, but his strength
and gift to us is his solemn vow to carry out the law on
our behalf. In the upcoming primary, David Miller’s
name will be printed on the Democrat ballot, while
Republicans must “write in” David Miller’s name.
Be sure to vote for experience on Primary Election
Day; vote for David Miller.
As a friend of Mr. Miller’s, don’t let me confuse
you. We are not family members, but share the
common bond that David is our best choice for
State’s Attorney!

MICHAEL P. SMITH
Michael P. Smith, 66, North Hero, died peacefully
Monday evening, August 4, 2014 at the Fletcher
Allen Health Care in Burlington, with his loving
Paid for by Reelect Miller State’s Attorney, 14 Tebeau Terrace, Grand Isle, VT
family by his side.
Michael was born
on August 5, 1947 in
Hardwick.
He graduated from
‚* )' 
School in 1965 and went
to work at IBM, for the
next 38 years, before
becoming a Park Ranger
for the State of Vermont,
Department of Parks
and Recreation. He presently was assigned to the
Knight’s Point State Park.
Mike loved the
outdoors and was
an avid hunter
all his life. He
treasured his time
in the woods and
hunted all over
Vermont, Maine,
Pennsylvania
and Canada with
his best friend
Kenny
Arms.
His camp in
the
northeast
kingdom
of
Vermont,
next
door to his friend Bob Dragon, was his favorite spot,
and “heartbreak ridge” was paradise for him. Mike
was also a dog lover, and his puppies Sophie, Tank,
Sam and Ollie, he raised with his partner Sue, were
very dear to him.
Mike followed his love of the outdoors by becoming
a Vermont State Park Ranger after his retirement from
IBM in 2003 and spent 11 years as a Park Ranger at
Lake Carmi, Molly Stark and Knight’s Point State
Park. He also spent several winters tending the ski
lifts at Okemo. Another passion of Mike’s was his
vehicles. From his Chevelle 396 Super Sport, MGB,
and Corvette to his numerous trucks, motorcycles
and four-wheelers, and his current Chevy antique
truck, if it had an engine, Mike loved it!
Special thanks to Dr. Ades, Barb Segal and
the nurses on Shepardson 4. Also, thanks to Rob
Peterson and the entire staff at Knight’s Point State
Park. Mike loved his job and considered the crew at
the park as “family”.

and best friend Kenny Arms and his wife Ginger of
Essex. He also leaves his friends and associates at
Knight’s Point State Park. Mike was predeceased by
his parents George and Fran Smith of South Hero.
At Mike’s request, there will not be any services
at this time.

FUNDRAISER FOR LYME DISEASE
A Vendor and Quarter Auction for Lyme
Disease will be held on Sunday, August 17 at
the Arrowhead Milton Eagles Club at 42 Centre
Street from 1 to 4:30 pm. Vermont has the second
highest rate of Lyme disease in the country,
according to the federal Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention. The rate of infection
in Vermont is nearly ten times the national
average for the illness, the most common tickborne disease. If Lyme disease is not detected
early, the infections can lead to more serious
problems which affect the heart as well as the
nervous system. This fundraiser is for Carly
Buswell, a 22-year old Milton resident with Stage
3 Lyme disease. It will help her with medications
and doctor bills the insurance does not cover.
\ Q fundraiser and a home party! Local direct sales
vendors will be auctioning off new items for only
one to six quarters per bid. You can win items
up to $100 for very little. It is a fun afternoon, so,
be prepared to get addicted! You’ll want to come
every month! There will be food and a cash bar
and extra donated items by local businesses to
be auctioned off.

The Milton Food Shelf needs your help.
Hunger is on the rise in Vermont. According to
Over the last six months, we’ve seen a dramatic

average of 80 families a month. The last few
months have seen that number swell to over
125. The families we serve live in Milton and
our neighboring communities of Colchester,
Winooski, Georgia, Fairfax, Essex and Westford.
The MFCC food shelf is stocked solely by
community donations, and we are in desperate
need of help. Our shelves are nearly empty.
We cannot provide a family with even the bare
necessities for three to four meals. We are asking
the greater Milton community to help us stock
our shelves with non-perishables. Donations can
be left in the food shelf bin at Milton’s Hannaford
Market or brought to the Center during business
hours. Thank you. If you or your organization
would like to sponsor a food drive, contact Cheryl
Alwine at [email protected].
