Sounding across TownGreen, bagpipes signaled thecommencement of Ameri-can Legion Post 76’s annualVeterans Day ceremony onNov. 7.

Piper George Thomsonplayed through a chilly Sun-day afternoon, as fall leavesskittered across the walk-ways and crunched under-foot. Post 76 commander DanRiccio Jr. led American Le-gion color guard membersacross Church Street toNorth Haven’s World War IIMemorial. An audience oftwo dozen attended, includ-

ing veterans in uniform andlocal officials.

“Our thoughts today arewith the men and womenwho served in time of warand peace,” said HOPEChristian Pastor Jim De-tweiler in his opening prayer.

After the Pledge of Alle-giance, Post 76 representa-tives read aloud names ofAmerican Legion memberswho passed away during thelast year. Upon reciting eachname, the deceased werehonored with a service bellring, culminating in a mo-ment of silence.

World War II veteran andformer Post 76 senior vice-commander Frank Andersen

was among those lost. “Thisyear’s ceremony is in memo-ry of Frank,” Riccio said.

Normally held at NorthHaven’s Vietnam War Memo-rial, 2010’s observance wasmoved to the town’s WorldWar II monument in honor ofAndersen, who passed awaylast month at 91 years old.“He did a lot to promote theLegion and help us out,” Ric-cio said. “He was a great guy.”

Distinguished speakers in-cluded First SelectmanMichael Freda. “Today givesus time to pause for reflectionon those who have served ourgreat country and served togive us the life, liberty andfreedoms we have today,” hesaid.

“To the members of Post 76here and all the veterans liv-ing here in North Haven, I’dlike to say that North Havenis not only grateful for your

Local small business owner and Republi-can David Yaccarino defeated 14-year De-mocratic incumbent SteveFontana in November’selection for North Haven’s87th District State Repre-sentative seat. The NorthHaven Citizen recentlycaught up with Yaccarinofor a question and answersession.

Q: How will you repre-sent North Haven while working in Hart-ford?

A: While working in Hartford, I will bein North Haven almost every day. I have abusiness here. And I will try to volunteer inthe community. I want to try to organize atown-wide cleanup project, to beautifyparks and other spots in the town.

I still plan on having quarterly questionand answer meetings, like I did throughoutmy campaign. I will let people know whatbills are coming up and what I could possi-bly do to help the town. You learn fromquestion and answer meetings.

Q: During your campaign you stressedbipartisan collaboration, pointing to De-mocrats and liberals working for your cam-paign. How will you continue this coopera-tion in Hartford?

A: I went to my first caucus last night,and Governor-elect Dan Malloy came inand spoke with House Minority LeaderLarry Cafero. Malloy said, “We need towork together.”

The state is still a mess. One reason it’s amess is because of partisan politics. I’mcommitted to working for the people, andthat means working both sides of the aisle.That’s the only way to work. It’s just too

Tire pond remediation questionedBy Kyle Swartz

The North Haven Citizen

Planning and Zoning Com-mission (PZC) members andpublic speakers both contin-ued to question the state De-partment of EnvironmentalProtection’s (DEP) tire pondplans at Nov. 8’s PZC meeting.

DEP decision-makers wantto place approximately440,000 cubic yards of soil ontop of North Haven’s tirepond, including 7,000 cubicyards from Hamden’sNewhall Community cleanupproject. The soil would helppush down and stabilize ap-proximately 15 to 30 millionillegally-dumped tires al-ready buried beneath the 441State St. property, whichstraddles the NorthHaven/Hamden town line.

The DEP and Loureiro En-gineering Associates, hiredfor tire pond closure opera-tion and management, sub-mitted a fill permit request toNorth Haven’s PZC.

Since the governmentagency began final phases oftire pond containment, localshave protested DEP methods,including at an Oct. 12 publicmeeting. Concerns have cen-tered on whether potentialsoil is environmentallysound, especially as 441 StateSt. abuts the Quinnipiac Riv-er.

Soil already placed in-cludes dirt from Boston’s BigDig. Moreover, Newhall soilis being excavated as part ofa state-sponsored remedia-tion project, and may containhazardous materials.

However, DEP official Di-ane Duva assured PZC mem-bers that any and all futuresoil would first be subjectedto a material acceptabilityprotocol. Acceptable materi-als would include soil, sedi-ment, rock, concrete andbrick. Hazardous waste, con-struction and demolition de-bris and stained and paintedconcrete and brick would beunacceptable.

“The soil we’re talkingabout must meet a certaincriteria in order to be used atthis project,” Duva said. “Wehave many safety checks formaterial being brought in.The material is clean enough

to be used as fill at an indus-trial site.”

The North Haven landfill,she added, which is also onthe Quinnipiac River, “wasclosed using materials prob-ably not as nice.”

“These fill materials arebeing used to close landfillsthroughout the state,” Duvasaid.

As tire pond soil must

meet only qualifications forindustrial site use, it maycontain low, “acceptabledosages” of certain poten-tially dangerous materials,according to Duva. “What’simportant is to look at theconcentrations [of certainpotentially dangerous mate-rials],” she said.

North Haven has begun a“Stormwater Awareness andRelated Activities Program,”which First SelectmanMichael Freda hopes willdiscourage drain pollution.

In conjunction with theUnited States Environmen-tal Protection Agency (EPA)and Connecticut’s Depart-ment of Environmental Pro-

tection (DEP) MS4 Stormwa-ter Best Management Pro-gram (BMP), North Havenhas marked approximately250 storm drains throughoutthe Sentinel Hill area.

Placed by Department ofPublic Works staff and vol-unteer students from theNorth Haven High School,the catch basin markersstate, “No Dumping, Drainsto Stream.”

Like many municipalities,

North Haven is undertakingthe marking project through-out the entire community tobring awareness to areas ofsensitive waters, wheretrash, nutrients, fertilizersor pollutants have been iden-tified. It is the goal of NorthHaven’s decision-makers tomark up to half of all of the2,200 storm drains which ex-ist throughout the town, ac-cording to a Town Hall pressrelease.

‘Down the drain’ is not good environmental policy

Amelia (Frog), Col-in (Shark), andAiden Shanley(Cutest Lion),along withMatthew Martinelli(Police Officer)and Danny Cusack(Skeleton Zombie)all went out treat ortreating togetherhaving a greattime.

Trick or Treat

“Regardless of the condi-tion of a receiving stream orwater body, these markingscan raise awareness through-out our town about the con-nection between stormdrains and receiving watersand can help to deter litter-ing, excess fertilizer use,dumping and other practicesthat contribute to storm wa-ter pollution,” Freda said in apress release.

“As a commitment to thetown of North Haven’s envi-ronment, its Department ofPublic Works will also bemailing pamphlets andbrochures to area service or-ganizations, transmitting let-ters to town residents wheremarkers have been installed,placing articles in local news-papers, making presenta-tions to the community, andworking to enhance thetown’s website to furtherbring awareness to storm wa-ter management,” Freda con-tinued.

“By raising residentawareness of urban runoff,storm drain marking pro-grams should discouragepractices that generate pollu-tants,” Freda added.

The planned scope of workfor the Stormwater Aware-ness and Related ActivitiesProgram includes, but is not

limited to, educating NorthHaven’s students annuallywith respect to watershedprotection; educating home-owners regarding lawn fertil-izer, pesticide use, impacts ofoveruse and other householdcontaminants; educatinghomeowners regarding theimpact of failing septic sys-tems and their effect on wa-ter quality of water bodiesthroughout the town; educat-ing residents on the impactof pet and waterfowl wasteson the quality of water bod-ies throughout town; poten-tial regulation changes; andholding public meetings toreintroduce and reinvigorateinterest in stormwaterawareness and related pollu-tion prevention topics.

Further information onthe Stormwater Awarenessand Related Activities Pro-gram may be obtained bycontacting the Departmentof Public Works at 203-239-5321, extension 750.

Seniors enjoy quality living at Temple Pines and Park Side senior housingBy Paul Colella

Special to the NorthHaven Citizen

Seniors in North Havenenjoy quality living at twosenior complexes owned andoperated by North Haven’sHousing Authority. TemplePines and Park Side are nes-tled in a country-like settinglocated at the northern sec-tion of Pool Road.

“Senior housing is neces-sary and vital for quality liv-ing for our seniors who needto downsize, but at the sametime need a place to callhome while maintainingtheir dignity and independ-

ence, while living comfort-ably within their means,”stated Anne McKeon, admin-istrator of the Housing Au-thority of North Haven. “I’vebeen at my position for 36years and I love workingwith the seniors. They are awonderful, caring, and lov-ing group of people with awealth of knowledge.”

McKeon further explainedthat Park Side, which is lo-cated directly behind theJoyce C. Budrow Senior Cen-ter, has 40 units. TemplePines, which is down theroad from the senior center,has 30 units.

Park Side was built in the

late 1970s and Temple Pineswas constructed in 1988.Both facilities have efficien-cy and one-bedroom apart-ments, in addition to largerunits for couples. TemplePines is a three-story build-ing. Park Side is comprisedof first-floor apartments at-tached to one another, withalso a two floor unit on theother side.

“Both complexes provide acozy, safe, secure, efficientand friendly living environ-ment for the residents,”McKeon said. “There are in-tercoms in all the apart-ments and guests must bebuzzed in the main entranceby the person they are visit-ing.”

“Several residents havetheir own vehicles, and forthose who do not drive orown a car, transportation isprovided through My Ride,which takes them to visitfriends or on errands and thebus from the senior centerthat takes them to the centeror on errands,” McKeonadded. “Also, the location ofboth places is accessible tothe center of town.”

McKeon spends her daysworking on a variety of ad-ministrative duties and oth-er tasks, including checkingin on residents, attendingmeetings and splitting hertime between both town

properties. She works atPark Side on Tuesday andThursday mornings. Therest of the days she spends ather Temple Pines office.

At both facilities, there is alaundry room, storage areaand a large community roomwith an efficiency kitchenand a television. Residentsare welcome to entertainfamily and friends or host anevent upon reservation, orgather with other residentsto socialize, play cards,watch television and relax.

McKeon emphasized theimportance of treating allthe residents with “TLC”(tender loving care) and as“VIPs” (very important peo-ple). She is very grateful toMarjorie Bergin and PamLiquori, two women she saidare terrific to work with andare always lending a helpinghand.

“Marjorie and Pam arewonderful women who areinstrumental in assisting mewith the daily tasks at Tem-ple Pines and Park Side.They also have a beautifulway of relating to the seniorsthrough their kindness andsmiling faces,” McKeon said.“The seniors love, them andso do I.”

Residents have the oppor-tunity to look out their win-dows and enjoy scenerywhile observing the chang-

ing of the seasons as evidentwith the large trees andshrubbery surrounding thewell-manicured grounds. AtTemple Pines, a beautifulgazebo in the backyard pro-vides a nice place of refugefrom the sun and solitude forthose looking to enjoy theoutdoors while watching thesquirrels gather acorns or tocommune with nature.

“We are all one big familyand we look out for one an-other,” stated Mary Barnows-ki, a senior resident at Tem-ple Pines. “My fellow seniorsand I love North Haven andwe love living here at thislovely place we call ourhome.”

Senior housing at TemplePines and Park Side is avail-able to persons 62-years-oldor older who are on social se-curity or social security dis-ability. Rents are according toa person’s income. There arealso monthly and informa-tive programs for residents.The waiting list for bothplaces was recently openedon October 13. It had beenclosed for four years.

“Our seniors are the back-bone of every community.They built and worked forour community as well aspaid taxes and raised theirfamilies here,” stated FirstSelectman Michael Freda. “Itis our pleasure and responsi-bility to give something backto our seniors while allowingthem to remain safe, secureand independent.”

“I enjoy working with theseniors. I learn from them,they brighten my days, andshare their love and laughterwith me,” replied McKeon.“They are a very specialgroup of men and women—-they truly are.”

early to know exactly how I’lldo it.

It is a good sign that Mal-loy came into our caucus.That’s the way it should be.And I know that Cafero hasalready had discussions withMalloy about being biparti-san. I am already impressedwith Cafero.

Now the state Democratsare down to just a majority.But they are still one seatshort of a super majority.That’s dangerous.

Q: What state committeesare you looking to join?

A: I am hoping to get onthe commerce and veteransaffairs committees. Being abusiness owner I understandcommerce. And I spent fouryears in the naval reserve. Ihave the utmost respect forveterans, and I think I couldbe a good voice for them.Most people have the utmostrespect for veterans, ofcourse, but, through thenavy, I have a general under-standing about military his-tory and the sacrifices thatthose men and women gothrough.

Q: Connecticut is facing fi-nancial troubles. How willyou work to correct this?

A: That starts with thenew Governor, the financecommittee and spendingpolicies. I don’t believe in

raising taxes. I know Malloyhas entertained the idea, andI think that would be a disas-ter.

I would like to see the 10percent corporate surchargerepealed. Companies need tobe able to make money, aslong as they reinvest backinto Connecticut employeesand development. I believeConnecticut needs to be morebusiness-friendly. Our legis-lators need to make it clear tobusinesses that we wantthem here. And that’s goingto take both parties and theGovernor to happen. Malloysays he’s committed to this,and I don’t have any reasonnot to believe him. I know theHouse Republicans are com-mitted, for sure.

Q: Connecticut’s Educa-tion Cost Sharing (ECS) wasa topic for debate during yourcampaign. You favoredchanging the ECS formula tobring more education moneyto North Haven. How will youaccomplish this?

A: Changing the ECS for-mula is also going to startwith the Governor-elect. Hehas already said that we’vegot to change it. GovernorRell tried to change it twice,but most Democrats, alongwith a few Republicans, did-n’t want to.

We have to convince peoplethat the current ECS formulahelps cities but is killingtowns, because it’s already

five years outdated. I thinkwe will see the formulachanged within the next cou-ple years, if the Governorsticks to his word, and withenough Democratic and Re-publican support, but onlywith the support. My goal isto work to make the ECS for-mula more equitable for thetown.

Something that’s an evenbigger problem is unfundedmandates. That we need tochange.

Q: To what do you attrib-

ute your victory?A: I had great community

support, and we ran a reallygood campaign. I had somany volunteers, young andold, Democrats, independ-ents and Republicans. Theywere amazing and I am sothankful. I walked, I think,more than anybody has everwalked in North Haven. Ihad a very clear message —honesty, hard work and al-ways putting North Havenfirst. I have to stick to that.People believed that I say

what I mean, that it doesn’tmatter about party. I haveonly one purpose — servingNorth Haven. I think peoplerealized that.

I was actually an inde-pendent until 2000. In 2000, Ivolunteered for John Mc-Cain’s campaign in NewHampshire and Connecticut,and switched. Fiscally, I amdefinitely on the conserva-tive side, though I dislike the“conservative” and “liberal”

Former Post 76 and Con-necticut American LegionCommander Charles Morris-sey also addressed the crowd.“Veterans Day is not just aday to honor the heroes butall the veterans,” he said.“Not all veterans have seenwar, but together they take anoath that they’re willing todie to protect this nation.”

“We must be there not onlyto support the families of thefallen, but also the families ofthose still serving and thosewho have returned changedforever by the nature of war,”Morrissey added.

In reminding all to remem-ber and respect the trials ofAmerica’s past, Riccio quot-ed Dwight Eisenhower, “Aswe peer into society’s future,we — you and I, and our gov-ernment — must avoid theimpulse to live only for today,plundering, for our own easeand convenience, the pre-cious resources of tomorrow.We cannot mortgage the ma-terial assets of our grand-children without risking theloss also of their political andspiritual heritage.”

Afterward, Word of Faith

Church Pastor Jose Torres of-fered a closing prayer. “I wantto thank all the men andwomen who made it possiblefor people like us to serve ourcountry in peace time,” hesaid.

PZCContinued from page 3

“This is a massive remedi-ation project for the state ofConnecticut,” she added.“It’s a highly-monitored proj-ect. We all have to trust thatthe testing laboratories areaccurate because they don’twant to lose their licenses.”

A two-foot top layer wouldbe comprised of only soilsuitable for residential andrecreational sites, accordingto Duva.

PZC member Theresa Ran-ciato-Viele was skeptical ofthe Newhall connection.“The people in North Havenfeel that the Newhall projectcame up, and now that soil iscoming in from Hamden,”she said. “It’s convenient fora lot of parties. I think wewould feel better if the soilwas better.”

PZC chairman JamesGiulietti concurred. “It doessound like, ‘Here’s the prob-lem, and here’s the way tosolve the problem.’”

“That’s both the case andnot the case,” Duva respond-ed. “The closure plan was de-veloped in 2006, beforeNewhall. But by linking thetwo local projects . . . it’s a netbenefit to everybody. We taketrucks off the road and re-duce mileage. It’s a net envi-ronmental benefit.”

Residents asked whetherany soil pollutants wouldseep into the Quinnipiac Riv-er. “There is a relatively lowflow [within the tire pond] be-cause it’s clay,” Duva replied.

“Water moving back andforth is not rapid, but it is cer-tainly worth monitoring, andthat’s been a point of ours.Monitoring is part of ourpost-closure plan.”

“Part of our post-closureplan is also to make sureenough money is set aside forfuture monitoring,” she con-tinued.

Hamden is looking to sellits share of the property,Duva added, with a possiblebuyer already interested.

The DEP will also chargeconstruction sites to use thetire pond for soil dumping.“There are construction proj-ects throughout Connecticutthat have excess soil everyday,” Duva said. “The key is:Does it match our reuse qual-ifications?”

Speaker Joan Mazureksaid she did not find the DEPcredible, and feared for theQuinnipiac River. “Clay isnot going to hold anythingback,” she said.

Speaker Douglas Robertswas nervous that a 1960s un-derground tire fire was stillsmoldering beneath 441 StateSt.

PZC officials kept the pub-lic hearing open until nextmonth, so more questionscan be asked of the DEP andanswered. North Haven’sPZC is scheduled to meet nexton Dec. 6.

Too manyTo the editor:

Considering we have apopulation of about 24,000people living in NorthHaven, we have a town gov-ernment that is too big andcostly to run. There areabout 200 employees workingfor town government (offi-cials, boards and commis-sions), not including policeofficers, firefighters, para-medics and Public Worksemployees.

Several attorneys serveour town. They get town offi-cials out of legal messes andthrow wrenches into theworks whenever a lawsuit isfiled against the town. Theirservices would not be neededto this extent, if town offi-cials knew how to conductthemselves in a professionalmanner and address our con-cerns by serving our needsand not their own. This isclear proof stemming from

all the unnecessary legal is-sues dragging the towndown, draining the townbudget of much-needed mon-ey to cover big taxpayer ex-penses.

Town government is thetown’s biggest employer. Toomany people serving makesthe negotiating process inef-ficient with too much bicker-ing. Our emergency person-nel are not in proportion tothe resident and the businessneeds of the town. Our townhas grown and emergencyservices are stressed beyondacceptable limits. I stronglysupport the need to hiremore employees that servethe emergency sector oftown government. We can-not afford to compromise onpublic safety as well as thoseserving us and that needs tobe priority.

Town leadership contin-ues to disgrace this town astheir actions have spoken forthemselves. It’s been a

bumpy ride on town roadsfor a long time and patch-work is not a good invest-ment. Town leadershipneeds to look at the trashthey are leaving behind. Weneed to repave roads leadingus into the future, but themoney is not there to do so.Town leadership must gettheir priorities straight, be-fore it’s too late.

Help neededTo the editor: We need your help to help

others. This time of year is agood time to reflect on howfortunate most of us are. Un-fortunately, not all of us areas lucky and more need ourhelp this year than in thepast.

In this, the 100th year ofthe Boy Scouts of America,the youth of Sleeping GiantDistrict will help our com-munities with our 22nd An-

nual Food Drive. The Scoutsof Sleeping Giant District,comprised of the towns ofSouthington, Meriden,Wallingford, Hamden andNorth Haven, are collectingnon-perishable food dona-tions on the morning of No-vember 13th. Last year, yourresponse was exceptional,with over 550 Scouting vol-unteers donating their timeto collect, sort and store36,000 pounds of donatedfood.

This year even more isneeded. With your help we

would like to surpass ourprevious successes. If youreceive a “Scouting forFood” bag or flier pleaseconsider making a donationof a non-perishable fooditem by placing the bag out-side between 9 and 11 a.m.on November 13th. Evenone item will make a differ-ence to those in need and allcontributions will remainwithin the town the dona-tion is made. Thank you foryour support.

A North Haven mom’sbudget-friendly family

activitiesBy Lynn Semple


Entertaining kids is not aneasy task.

Their attention span isshort. They are always readyto move on to the next activi-ty. I find it is much easier toentertain kids during thesummer months, as potenti-aal outdoor activities areendless.

You can go to the park orschool playground, have apicnic at a park or in yourown backyard, setup playdates with other kids, holdscavenger hunts, build obsta-cle courses in your backyard,build sandcastles in a sand-box, ride bikes or runthrough a sprinkler on a hotday. Or, you can go for a walkor drive to a state park andhike on one of the manytrails. Go for a family bikeride. If one member of thefamily doesn’t have a bike,see if you can borrow onefrom a friend or neighbor.

Take the kids down to thebeach. Lots of beaches offera summer pass for a nominalrate. Playing miniature golfis an activity that can be

done year-round. Our familyloves going to the orchardsto pick apples. The kids havea great time, as they can picktheir own. Some orchardsalso offer hayrides, cornmazes and other family ac-tivities.

The winter months aretricky, as there are only somany libraries to visit orplay dates to have. If the sunis shinning, I take the kidsoutside for a short time to getsome fresh air and run offsome of the energy they builtup by being indoors.

Take the kids bowling ormake it a family night byrenting a movie with somepopcorn. You can rent amovie for as little as $1 forone night or for free at yourlocal library. Even the localmovie theaters offer a re-duced rate for the first show-ing of the day. Just makesure to bring your ownsnacks, as popcorn and asoda could be as much ormore than your movie ticket.

Eating out is very costlyfor a family. My kids areyoung, so we rarely go out toeat. Be sure to check out

when restaurants havenights when kids either eatfor free or for a reduced price.Even fast food chains have adollar menu where the wholefamily could eat for $10.

Lots of stores (Home De-pot, Lowe’s, LakeshoreLearning Center andMichael’s) have kid work-shops where they can makeor build crafts.

Being on a budget doesn’thave to stop your family fromhaving fun. There are lots ofactivities that are inexpen-sive or free — you just have toknow where to look. With alittle creativity and imagina-

tion, families can still enjoydoing activities togetherwithout letting money dic-tate your plans.

Figuring out how muchmoney a month you canspend on family fun will de-termine what you do. Checklocal kids’ directories, yourtown’s website and localnewspaper for ideas. Your lo-cal library will have informa-tion on upcoming events. Thelibrary may have passes forparks, zoos or museums at areduced rate or for free.

Share your family funideas with friends and fami-ly. Have other friends or fam-ilies join you on some familyactivities — it will be fun foryou and your kids.

Remember When: living next to Peter’s RockBy Paul Colella


The year was 1955. The Ko-rean War was over and thecountry, under the presiden-cy of Dwight D. Eisenhower,was experiencing prosper-ous and peaceful times. High-ways were being built to ac-commodate larger numbersof automobiles and the sub-urbs were expanding. Dur-ing that same year, the Gam-bardella family moved toNorth Haven, a town with a

country setting that wasslowly transforming from arural and agricultural com-munity into a thriving indus-trial town. For PhilomenaGambardella, living with herfamily in a Middletown Av-enue house next to a largeparcel of open space calledPeter’s Rock was a periodfilled with fun times. This isher story.

“My husband Attilio was ateacher and then a principalin the New Haven SchoolSystem. We lived in NewHaven for some years, but

then, in 1955, Attilio movedour family to North Haven,”recalled Philomena. “Wemoved into a modest homeon Middletown Avenue rightnext to Peter’s Rock, whichhad several different namesthrough the decades.”

Gambardella explainedthat she was no stranger toPeter’s Rock because, duringthe 1930s, her uncle woulddrive to the outlook in an oldtruck and get fresh waterfrom a fountain that wasnear the top of the summit.He would return home withseveral bottles of cold waterthat helped to quench thirstythroats on a hot summer day.

In the 1950s, Gambardel-la’s husband would go to thesame fountain and get waterfor his family. He had to fixthe fountain on two separateoccasions, but eventually thespring dried up and the foun-tain was sealed.

“Since we lived directlynext door, my five childrenBilly, Frances, Eleanor, John,

and Sandra would climb tothe summit and enjoy thespectacular view,” said Gam-bardella. “Many times, wewould pack a picnic lunchand eat under the magnifi-cent trees. In the fall, mychildren and their friendswould have fun runningthrough the leaves that lit-tered the various paths.”

“Spring was my favoritetime at Peter’s Rock becauseI liked taking a hike whileadmiring the trees andshrubs in bloom and listen-ing to the birds chirpingcheerfully in their nests,”she added.

Gambardella has lived inNorth Haven for 55 years.Her children went throughthe town’s school system.She remembers the trolleythat ran through the centerof town, the building of thefirst high school that enabledstudents to attend school intown instead of going to Ly-man Hall in Wallingford, andthe establishment of the first

Little League baseball thatwas sponsored by The NorthHaven Exchange Club.

She also recalls the town’stransition from farms,barns, and farm animals toindustry including stores,the shopping center onWashington Avenue, thepresence of MarlinsFirearms, Pratt and Whit-ney, and later Blue Cross andBlue Shield on Bassett Road.And of course, she cannotforget I. L. Stiles and SonBrick Company.

“In spite of all the develop-ing and building of newhomes and businesses, Pe-ter’s Rock remained un-touched and was a popularplace to commune with na-ture during the 1950s and60s,” Gambardella said.“Sadly, later on in the 1970s,it became a dumping groundfor trash and discarded ob-jects like old furniture, mat-tresses, tires, and other

An Ounce of Prevention:the shingles story

By Deborah Culligan

Shingles is like Act II of the play “Chick-en Pox.” You can’t get shingles unless youhave had chicken pox. Both diseases arecaused by the same virus, varicella zoster.The first time around it causes chickenpox. When it reemerges, it causes shingles.After chicken pox occurs, the virus doesn’tdisappear, but rather hides in nerve cells,perhaps forever or until it is reactivated.The mechanism by which this occurs isnot totally clear. Stressors thought to con-tribute to the emergence of shingles in-clude injury, infection, immune system de-ficiency (which naturally occurs as peopleage) and/or emotional distress. Whateverthe cause, when it does resurface, it resultsin shingles.

Shingles is a very painful disease. It canbe so painful that the slightest touch can beexcruciating. Shingles generally causes arash that may last for several weeks. Theclassic rash appears as a red band on oneside of the torso. The first sign of shinglesmay be excessive skin sensitivity in anarea on one side of the body usually underthe ribs, face (especially the eyes andnose), head, neck or waist with or without

a rash. This sensitivity then becomespainful and may burn, itch, or ache. After afew days, this rash will develop small whiteblisters, usually linear in shape. The blis-ters may have small red circles aroundthem. Over time (about 2-3 weeks, similarto chicken pox) the blisters scab over.

Unfortunately for some, the pain that ac-companies this rash can drag on formonths or even years. This lasting pain iscalled postherpetic neuralgia, which oc-curs in 10-20% of cases. There are sometreatments that can be tried, such as smalldoses of antidepressants, antiseizure med-ications and some topical creams. Howeverabout 40-50 percent of persons do not re-spond to any treatment.

There are three important things to un-derstand about the relationship betweenchicken pox and shingles:

- You can’t get shingles unless you havehad chicken pox. Essentially, you get shin-gles from your own chicken pox virusawakened by some stressor on your body.

- It is highly unlikely that you can getshingles from other persons with shingles.

Patriots and Scoundrels Book 2, Part 10By Paul Colella


“Take back those outra-geous and despicable lies.There is no proof to these al-legations. Be gone from thishouse, you wicked woman,”shrieked Lydia.

Then Lydia slapped Louisein the face. In retaliation,Louise lunged at her attack-er, knocking her to the floor.While both women beganfighting like two wild ani-mals, Mrs. Kensington wentinto the hall to seek assis-tance. A few moments later,two of the servants, Fosterand Jennings, came in andinterrupted the fight. As Fos-ter held Louise, and Jen-nings held Lydia, bothwomen struggled to freethemselves in a desperate at-tempt to resume their alter-cation.

“This abominable behav-ior will end this instant,”shouted a vexed Mrs. Kens-ington. “Foster, please escortMiss Bourget off the premis-es immediately. And MissBourget, do not return toKensington Hall, and I warnyou and your friend Mon-sieur Tessier to stay awayfrom dear Charity. Now, awaywith you.”

As Foster was escortingLouise out, Louise utteredthreats of retaliation againstLydia. Mrs. Kensington in-formed Lydia to remain be-hind and to take time to com-pose herself before resumingher duties, and she wouldspeak to her later. After Mrs.Kensington left the room, aflustered and disturbed Lydiasat down on the sofa, put herhands up to her face, and be-gan to weep.

Upon hearing Louise’s hor-rific account of Lydia’s evildeeds, I was in completeshock. As I stood motionless,I began to process in mymind Louise’s serious accu-sations against Lydia, and atthe same time I rememberedhow Grace, on numerous oc-casions, warned me to stayaway from Lydia. These terri-ble encounters were not acci-dents, but the deliberate ac-tions of a deranged womanwho, for some unknown rea-son, wanted me dead just like

poor Elizabeth and Edmund.I knew that I had to leave

Kensington Hall for my ownsafety. I waited impatientlyfor Lydia to leave the room soI may enter, but she re-mained. Not wishing to waitany longer, I decided to re-turn to the house throughthe servants’ entrance by thekitchen. As I turned around,I was startled to see Jean-Luc, who had crept up frombehind me. He quicklygrabbed hold of me, and thenwe fled through the gardensto a waiting carriage on theoutskirts of KensingtonHall.

As we approached, Louise

opened the carriage doorand instructed me to get in-side. Upon entering, I wasgreeted by Constance, whowas sitting to the side. Shetold me that I had nothing tofear, and she, with the assis-tance of Jean-Luc andLouise, was taking me to Sin-gleton Lodge. Once Louisewas inside, Constance gaveorders to the driver to leave.Jean-Luc followed the car-riage on horseback.

The carriage was drawnby four horses and had rich-ly-carved wooden sides withseats that were upholsteredin a brightly colored cloth. Iwas very comfortable in my

Constance told me thatJean-Luc and Louise wereold acquaintances of herhusband. They went to Con-stance and Alexander and re-vealed the terrible dealingsthey had had with MonsieurMonnerat and Lydia John-son. After hearing their sto-ry, especially the part of Ly-dia’s confession of her plotto harm me, Alexander and

Constance, with Jean-Lucand Louise’s assistance, de-vised a plan to rescue me andbring me to Singleton Lodge.

“Do not worry my friend,for you shall remain at Sin-gleton Lodge for as long asyou wish while under myhusband’s protection,” saidConstance.

I admitted that I had over-heard and saw what tookplace between Louise andLydia, and I thanked themfor saving me from a precari-ous situation. Then I showedConstance Grace’s letter. Af-ter reading it, Constance in-

“My aunt had lived alone,with no children. When herdementia became worse, wehad people come in to carefor her. Unfortunately, we hadmany negative experiences. SoI decided to look at memorycare communities in the area.I knew about Masonicare’ sgreat reputation and heardthat they were opening amemory care assisted livingcommunity called The Hearth.

My aunt was actually one ofthe �rst residents to come here.

Bonnie Pasqualoni, niece of Hearth resident

F

To this day, they still treat her as if she is their only resident! And it shows:she‘s gained a much-needed 20 pounds, is happy and feels trusting again.

So while the road to The Hearth at Masonicare wasn’t easy at times, weare delighted to be here. I guess you could say it was a happy ending…and a happy beginning for my aunt and me.”

formed me that Mr. Prestonwas in her husband’s employ,and she assured me that myinheritance would be securefor future use.

Once I heard Constance’scomforting and encouragingwords, I leaned my headagainst the soft seat andclosed my eyes while holdingmy doll in my hand. I musthave dozed for a short time,because the next thing I real-ized was Constance gentlyshaking my shoulder andtelling me that we had ar-

rived at her home. We de-scended from the carriagewith the assistance from amanservant, and I followedConstance to the front dooras our petticoats rustledalong the ground.

When we entered, my eyeswere amazed by the elegantand magnificent transforma-tion of the great hall. Thefurnishings and decorationswere lovelier than whenConstance’s father was theowner. Constance explainedthat her generous husbandinsisted on turning Single-ton Lodge into a replica oftheir home in Virginia.

After I properly thanked

Jean-Luc and Louise fortheir help and concern, theyexcused themselves andwent into the library to meetwith Alexander. Constancetook me by the hand and ledme upstairs to my new quar-ters. After settling in, Con-stance went downstairs and Idecided to rest before dinner.I sat down on the sofa andput my head on a satin pillowand closed my eyes. I beganto think about all that hadhappened, and also I becamevery concerned aboutCharles living at KensingtonHall with that wicked Lydia.Then I began to think aboutColonel Parker and asking

myself where he could be.Exhausted from my or-

deal, I soon fell asleep. How-ever, my peaceful rest was in-terrupted when I was awak-ened by someone whisperingthe name, Elizabeth, in myear while gently caressingmy face. As I opened myeyes, to my astonishment, Isaw that it was Colonel Park-er. Startled by his appear-ance, I quickly rose from thesofa.

As I attempted to reachout to him, the colonel ranfrom the room. In my effortto chase after him, I trippedover my petticoat and fell tothe floor. After rising from

my clumsy fall, I hurried outinto the hallway to seek outthe colonel. I looked about ina flustered state, but he wasnowhere to be found. To becontinued…

North Haven seventh graders fall in state semifinalsBy Dave Mikos

Special to the North HavenCitizen

North Haven’s 7th gradeyouth football team lost 18-8to Bridgeport Gold of theCandelwood Valley FootballLeague last weekend in athrilling state semifinalgame.

At the last minute, theShoreline Youth FootballConference asked NorthHaven to host all five statesemifinal games. Volun-teerism and sense of togeth-erness was at an all timehigh in the youth footballcommunity, which worked asone to host this tremendousdisplay of youth football,with teams traveling toNorth Haven from across thestate.

Featured in the day’s finalgame, North Haven facedBridgeport, last year’s 6thgrade national runner up,and the Indians only 2009 de-

feat.Bridgeport got out to an

early lead after a long scor-ing pass. North Haven wassignificantly out-sized bytheir opponents, but playedwith grit and heart through-

out the contest. After trad-ing punts and turnovers ondowns, with nine secondsleft in the first half, Bridge-port again beat North Haven

“When that plan failed, an-other proposal to turn it intoa golf course was introducedbut that never happened ei-ther,” she continued. “I got agroup of neighbors togetherand we went out and gath-ered many names on a peti-

(Although it may be possible,though extremely rare, ifyou are exposed to the fluidof the blisters of a personwith shingles.)

- You do not get shinglesfrom persons with chickenpox, but you can get chickenpox from person with shin-gles, if you have never hadnatural chicken pox or thechicken pox vaccine.

If you suspect that youhave shingles, you should seeyour healthcare providerright away, as there are somemedications (antivirals) thatcan be effective if taken with-

tion, and we spoke at townmeetings voicing our objec-tions and pleaded for townofficials to preserve its lastremaining large parcel ofopen space.”

With the assistance of thetown, Peter’s Rock wasspared from becoming a sub-division or golf course.Through the years, Gam-bardella has collected andarchived tons of historicalinformation on Peter’s Rock,dating back to 1718, when itwas called Rocks for Com-mon, then Indian Lookout,then High Rock, then RabbitRock, and finally its presentname.

According to historicalrecords and newspaper clip-pings, during the late nine-teenth century, four wealthybusinessmen from NewHaven built a cabin on thesummit, which they calledThe Hermitage. The menpaid a yearly rent of $25 toCharles A. Gilbert, who wasthe first selectman andtrustee of the deed at thetime. The Hermitage was de-stroyed by fire in 1930 andnever rebuilt.

“Today, Peter’s Rock hasbecome a well maintainedpark, thanks to the tediousand hard working efforts ofthe members of the Peter’s

Rock Association,” said ajoyful Gambardella. “Thereis a lovely landscaped en-trance with a brick walkwayand a pavilion located direct-ly behind First Fuel Gas Sta-tion. Peter’s Rock still has itsprimeval and picturesquebeauty that overlooks thesoutheast corner of town.”

“I’m glad that future gen-erations have the opportuni-ty to enjoy this preciousplace like my children and Idid years ago,” she added.“Peter’s Rock has fond mem-ories for me and is a true giftfrom nature.”

Life will fade, people willcome and go, good times will

not last forever and hardtimes will try our spirits, butthe memories remain. ForGambardella, living next to aspecial place where shespent countless hours mak-ing memories with her fami-ly are as unique and beauti-ful as the place where thememories were made andthe loved ones who madethem. Let your heart, as wellas your mind, cherish thememories of yesterday forthey bring comfort and hopefor today and tomorrow, sowhile we can, we should “re-member when.”

in the first 48 to 72 hours.Over the counter pain reliev-ers may help. Sometimes peo-ple need prescription pain re-lievers to obtain comfort.

The Shingles VaccineThere is a vaccine availablethat can reduce the risk ofshingles. It is for use in per-sons 60 and older. In a largestudy (about 39,000 personsage 60 and over) this vaccinewas shown to prevent shin-gles in about half of the par-ticipants. Those who still gotshingles even though theywere vaccinated had a less se-vere case. The immunizationwas also shown to cut by two-thirds the risk of developingpostherpetic neuralgia if youdo get shingles.

While most doctors recom-mend getting the shinglesvaccine if you are over age60, obtaining this vaccina-tion in not always an easyprocess. There are severalfactors affecting obtainingthis vaccine. At the time ofthis writing, there is a back-log of orders. . Secondly,many insurance plans do notreimburse for it, so it can becostly (average $200.00 justfor the vaccine.) Last thereare issues with storage. Mostvaccines just require refrig-eration, however, this vac-cine must be kept frozen un-til it is given. Not all medicaloffices have freezers.

Because you can get shin-gles more than once, the Ad-visory Committee on Immu-nization Practices (ACIP)recommends that you shouldget this immunization evenif you have had shingles inthe past. You can call your in-surance company to see ifthey will cover the shot. It is

covered under Medicare PartD, but it is listed as a phar-macy benefit. (There are leg-islative efforts to get it cov-ered under Medicare part Bbut they have not been suc-cessful yet.)Your providermay be willing to write a pre-scription for you to get itfrom a pharmacy and bringit to the office for administra-tion, but that will requirethat it be transported cor-rectly. Even if you can’t getinsurance coverage, it maybe worth spending the mon-ey to prevent contractingshingles.

For a packet of written in-formation on shingles andsome suggestions on wherewithin the District you canget the shingles shot if yourdoctor does not have it, callQVHD, 248-4528 or requestonline at www.qvhd.org. -Deborah Culligan, RN, MPH,is Deputy Director of theQuinnipiac Valley HealthDistrict.

deep with a long pass andwas able to score quickly. Anextra point attempt was nogood and the Chargers took a12-0 halftime lead into thelocker room.

North Haven came outfighting in the second half,getting tremendous playfrom its entire 34-man roster.The Indians executed theirsingle wing offense sharply,behind the leadership ofConnor Suraci and the gutsyrunning of Mike Montano.

Finally, midway throughthe third quarter, NorthHaven’s Emadi Okwuosabroke free into the end zone,making an incredible over-the-shoulder catch of aSuraci pass. Montano addedthe two-point kick to bringthe Indians to within fourpoints of the Chargers.

It was then up to NorthHaven’s defense to holdBridgeport’s potent offense— which they did.

Nick Ponzio, JohnMitchell, Jeremy Imperati,Robert Ralston, David Mikos,Patrick McKenna, Shane O’-Connor and Tony Valentinoplayed some inspired defen-sive ball, with some of thehardest hitting team defenseof the year, keeping theChargers scoreless in thethird quarter.

In the fourth quarter,North Haven’s offensive linepushed the Chargers aroundwith outstanding blockingled by Sam Blank and theever-consistent play of first-year center Ian Chapelle-Conklin.

North Haven played withreckless abandon, runningand throwing their way tothe Chargers 20-yard line be-fore their season was endedby a Bridgeport interceptionon their own 10-yard linewith just over a minute toplay in the contest.

In the final seconds of thegame, Bridgeport scored on along run to seal the Indian’sfate after an all out blitz bythe home team. The extrapoint was no good andBridgeport won 18-8.

Bridgeport ended the Indi-ans’ season with a record of10-1 for the second straightyear.

work for anybody but myself.I found collectibles to be abooming business.

Actually, nobody gave me achance to succeed. Really,that’s been the case my wholeadult life for some reason. Mystore’s 20th anniversary iscoming up. When I openedup, I sold just baseball cards.Little by little, people startedasking for comics. My sonwas little then, and he wasasking about comics. So Istarted a subscription sys-tem. I still sell old and newbaseball cards.

Collectibles is a viablebusiness. I have customersfrom all over Connecticut,and I ship overseas. But it’sbeen tough the last few years,like any business, and I hadto innovate. So a year ago Ichanged around the interiorof the store. I made it lookmore like a book store. Ap-pearance is everything. I hadthe books more in the middle,and I had a lot of blind spots.Now I have the books on thesides in new book shelves,and I’ve increased book salesby 20 percent. Business stillisn’t what it used to be, butit’s turning around. It reallyis.
