Millbrook
School athletic
director
dies in crash
By JUDITH OHARA BALFE
judithb@millertonnews.com
MILLBROOK On the morning
of Dec. 5, an accident claimed the life
of Millbrook School Athletic Director
Edward Allen, 32, and injured his two
young daughters, 3-year-old Codie, and
1-year-old Tatum.
According to the Dutchess County
Sheriffs Office, both children were
taken to Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital, then were airlifted to Westchester
Medical Center in Valhalla, one with
life-threatening injuries. The accident
occurred on Route 44, just 4 miles from
the Millbrook School.
The car was traveling west on Route
44 when Allens 2006 BMW X5 crossed
the line and was hit head-on by a dump
truck that was headed east. The SUV
was pushed off the road. The truck,
driven by Richard Colesanti, 47, overturned in the road, spilling its contents
of gravel. The truck was registered to
Bulldog Concrete of Poughquag. Colesanti was unharmed.
The Dutchess County Sheriffs Office stated that the accident seemed to be
driver distraction on the part of Allen,
although cell phone use was not thought
to be a factor in the crash. Route 44 was
closed for more than 11 hours.

Three area
restaurants
closing

cynthiah@lakevillejournal.com
MILLERTON Two Millerton
restaurants have closed or are closing
this month. And Pastorale in Lakeville,
Conn., has closed.
On Main Street, No. 9 restaurant
has closed (see story on page A3). On
Route 44, the McDonalds restaurant
will close as of Jan. 1.
McDonalds is owned by the parent
corporation, not a local franchise. A request to the corporate public relations
department had not been answered by
press time.
According to a worker at the restaurant, at this point there is no new
business expected to take the place of
the McDonalds. The building had previously been home to a Burger King.
Bergers life is a window to the past

Part one of two
By CYNTHIA HOCHSWENDER
MILLERTON For Sandy Berger, the little village of Millerton was
like the memory of Rosebud in the
film Citizen Kane. It was a small but
mighty part of his life, the place that
shaped him into the man he later became.
Berger died Dec. 2, 2015, at home
in Washington, D.C., from a cancer of
the bile duct that had been diagnosed
about a year ago. He was 70.
Sandy was my cousin, so even
though its not newspaper style, Im
going to refer to him for the rest of this
article by his first name.
Sandy was an important person
important enough that there were
feature articles on him in the New York
Times and Washington Post within
hours of his death. The announcement
of his passing came from his business

partner, Madeleine K. Albright, the former secretary of state. She and Sandy
had served together in the Clinton
administration. Sandy was first the
deputy national security adviser under
Anthony Lake and then the national
security adviser during Clintons second term. You can read about that in
the national newspapers.
But what was important to him
was the little village of Millerton in
Dutchess County, which still has a
population of under 1,000 people (as
it did when he was growing up here).
Millerton was the place he returned to,
a place that he made certain his three
children knew about.
The last time I saw him was in 2000,
when he and his older sister, Laurie
Gross, came back for a multi-generational reunion for the Webutuck Central School District. He and Laurie were

Adopt-A-Family relies on spirit of goodwill

By WHITNEY JOSEPH
editor@millertonnews.com
MILLERTON The holidays often inspire generosity. Thats exactly

what Adopt-A-Family organizer Stacey
Moore, of Moore & More Printing in
Millerton, is hoping. Thats because for
roughly the 20th year shes spearheading in the new winter clothing and toy
drive for children up to 16 years old,
who live in the North East (Webutuck)
and Pine Plains central school districts.
Moore spoke with The Millerton
News on Thursday, Dec. 3.
Its going well, she said. The
phones are ringing like crazy and were
signing up children and adopting them
out as quickly as theyre coming in. We
had over 100 children as of yesterday,

so were not quite halfway there.
Last year Adopt-A-Family provided
clothing and toys to 300 children and
110 families. All people have to do is
call Moore and make a monetary donation, or they can drop off new clothing,
for newborns to 16-year-olds, and new
toys, to Moore & More Printing on
Dutchess Avenue.
And theres a most wanted list. It
includes: board games; sports items,
like basketballs, soccer balls and footballs; Legos; dolls, Monster High dolls,
specifically; arts and crafts items; farm
toys, including toy tractors; books for
all ages; fleece blankets; new hats and

Millerton police officer named Top Cop

By WHITNEY JOSEPH
MILLERTON Its not every
police officer who can claim to be a
Top Cop. But Millerton Police Department Officer Michael Veeder can
do exactly that, after being named top
cop for winning an Outstanding Police
Officer Award for making the most
DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) arrests from Oct. 1, 2014, to Sept. 30, 2015.
Of those 20 arrests, all were in either
the town of North East or the village
of Millerton.
I was recognized for taking the

with modesty. There are lots of great
other officers in my department, and
in Dutchess County, doing a great job
who werent recognized. But to me its
a pat on the back for doing a good job
and it makes me feel good knowing that
the roads are a little safer.
Mike has really stood out in his
commitment to the STOP-DWI program and is one of only two part-time
police officers being recognized, said
Millerton Police Officer-in-Charge
David Rudin.
The award was bestowed upon
Veeder at a ceremony in Poughkeepsie

THE MILLERTON NEWS, Thursday, December 10, 2015
OBITUARIES
Arthur R. Taylor
SALISBURY Arthur R. Taylor, 80, former president of CBS
Inc. and 10th President
of Muhlenberg College
died Dec. 3, 2015, with
his loving wife, Kathryn, and his beloved
daughter, Annie, by his
side at Lehigh Valley
Hospital-Cedar Crest
in Allentown, Pa.
A resident of Salisbury Township, Pa.,
and Salisbury, Conn.,
Taylor was born July 6, 1935, in
Elizabeth, N.J. He was the son of
the late Marion (Scott) and Arthur Earl Taylor.
A native of Rahway, N.J., he
graduated from Rahway High
School and wenton to earn a full
scholarship and was a magna cum
laude Phi Beta Kappa graduate
from Brown University, where he
also received his masters degree
and later served as a trustee.
Taylor began his business
career with the First Boston
Corporation. He went on to become vice president of finance,
executive vice president and a
director ofInternational Paper
Company. Taylor was one of a
group of young fast-rising executives known as the Whiz Kids,
when at age 36 he was named
president and a director of CBS
Inc., where he was responsible
for the operations of the entire
company including the CBS Television Network, CBS News and
the New York Yankees.
Taylor was founding chairman
and president of cable televisions
Entertainment Channel (now the
Arts and Entertainment Network
A&E). He was also the founding president of the formidable
New York City Partnership with
Chairman David Rockefeller.
In 1985,Fordham Universitynamed him dean of theGraduate School of Business Administration and dean of the faculty
of Business. In his seven years
at Fordham, he transformed the
young graduate school, which
subsequently awarded him an
honorary doctorate. Taylor then
served as president ofMuhlenberg College for a decade
(19922002), during which time
Muhlenberg tripled its endowment, halved its debt and saw a
significant rise in admissions. Its
prominence as a fine liberal arts
college grew substantially.
Taylor served on the boards
of many corporations including
Toshiba, Eastern Airlines, Pitney
Bowes, the First Boston Corporation and The Travelers.
In addition, he held government advisory positions on
foreign policy under Presidents
Nixon and Carter.
He was a member of many
philanthropic boards including New York Hospital, the Joffrey Ballet, the Kiski School, the
American Assembly at Columbia
University (chairman), and he was
a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
He received numerous awards
and honorary doctorate degrees
from Bucknell, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Simmons
College, to name a few. Throughout his career and after retiring
from Muhlenberg he continued
mentoring young people. His students from Muhlenberg regularly
I had the privilege of knowing Samuel R. Berger for 65

years. Sandy, as everyone knew
him, died on Dec. 2, 2015, at age
70. Our friendship began in Mrs.
Hultslanders kindergarten class
at the Millerton School, and my
wife, Meg, and I last saw him on
Nov. 8.
Sandy had a keen interest
in people. As former President
Clinton humorously observed at
his Memorial Service at Temple
Sinai in Washington, D.C., on
Friday, Dec. 4, Sandy was a great
humanitarian, but unlike many
who profess to be such, he actually liked real people. Add to that
his natural empathy and his wonderful sense of humor, and the
result was a person with a rare
capacity for true friendship.
As has been mentioned in
some of the national coverage of
his death, Sandy was a passionate
baseball fan and that may have
been the greatest test of our
friendship. He loved the Brooklyn
Dodgers and I was an insufferable
Yankee fan. During our childhood
in Millerton, the Yankees and
Dodgers were often in the World
Series and the Dodgers seldom
won. Sandy, ever patient and taking the long view, knew his time
would come. It did in our freshman year in college. The Dodgers
had moved to Los Angeles and
were playing the Yankees in the
World Series. They swept the
Yankees four straight. Mel Allen,
the longtime Yankee announcer,
did the television play-by-play
for the final game. He had laryngitis and by the end of the game
could hardly talk. Two hours later
a man knocked on my dorm room
door and handed me a telegram. I
opened it and read: Ed. Even Mel
Allen choked. Sympathy. See you
soon. Sandy.
Sandy could have left Miller-
sought his advice as did numerous people with whom he worked

and lived.
He and his wife,
Kathryn, lived in
Salisbury in the Old
Bushnell Tavern, an
historic home, which
he truly loved. He
was proud to live in
Salisbury and served
as a commissioner
of the Historic District Commission. He
was a founding member of the
Berkshire Taconic Community
Foundation and the Friends of
Washinee Park and was a trustee
of the Salisbury School.
He was incredibly proud of
his family. His three daughters
and their achievements were everything to him. His four grandchildren meant the world to him
and they felt the same not a day
went by that he did not speak to
at least one of his grandchildren.
In addition to his family, he
adopted hundreds of surrogate
sons, daughters, nieces and nephews who depended on his love
and guidance. He was known
as Uncle Arthur to many. He
loved people and was truly larger
than life.
He is survived by the love of
his life, his wife Kathryn (Pelgrift) Taylor, from whom he
never wanted to be apart; his
daughters, Martha (Taylor) Josephson and her husband, Jon
Carter, Anne (Taylor) Madden
and her husband, Sean, and
Sarah (Taylor) Rountree and her
husband, John; his four beloved
grandchildren, David Arthur
Josephson, Zoe Taylor Josephson, John Taylor Madden and

Johnson of Millerton and the late
Francis Crawford and the younger brother to Linda Kaplan (of
Millerton, where she lives with
her husband, Sanford).

he didnt. He enjoyed visiting
the area to the extent his busy
schedule allowed. Whenever we
saw him, after inquiring about
us and our family, his next questions were about his friends in
Millerton and Amenia and what
was going on in those communities. When we saw him in early
November, he was delighted to
hear that our classmates George
Kaye and Victoria Perotti had just
been elected supervisor in their
communities and asked me to
send him their e-mail addresses.
For many years, he kept his subscription to The Millerton News
and especially enjoyed Bernie Silvernails column on local history.
During the memorial service,
former President Clinton, former
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Vice President Joseph
Biden all spoke of Sandys wisdom, wit, warmth and perseverance as did, most eloquently,
Sandys daughter Sarah and son
Alex. When speaking at a gathering of his family and a group
of close friends afterward, I told
them that many of those qualities
could be traced back to his time
in Millerton.
Sandys parents, Rose and Albert Berger, were business people
with a strong sense of civic and
social responsibility. They were
actively involved in the effort
to consolidate the Amenia and
Millerton school districts into the
Webutuck Central School District, and Al was a member of its
first Board of Education.
They purchased the department store business from Lena
Bloch in 1952, located in what is
now Oblong Books and Music,
and it became Bergers Department Store. Two years later, Al
Berger died from a heart attack.

several nieces and nephews.
In addition to her
parents, she was predeceased by
her husband Leon in 1996; her
brother, Morton Furst; her sister, Shirley (Furst) Sandweiss; and
several nieces and nephews.
Muriel was a devoted daughter, sister, mother, mother-inlaw, grandmother, great-grandmother, community member and
friend.

was 12. Sandy once told me how

difficult it was for his mother. Not
only had she unexpectedly lost
her husband, but her education
had prepared her to be a teacher,
not a business person. Sandy and
Laurie worked in the store, and
Rose successfully continued the
business until both children had
graduated from college.
We attended Webutuck when
it was under the aspirational leadership of Superintendent Mike
Rindsberg, who was so committed to seeing we got into the right
colleges that he would drive us
to visit them. Sandys interest
in history and government was
nurtured by exceptional teachers,
my mother, Leola Downey, and
her close friend, Violet Simmons,
whose admonition to her students
was: The difficult we do right
away, the impossible takes a little
longer. His confidence to express
himself publicly was helped enormously by his participation in our
school plays under the direction
of our gifted English teacher, Jack
Bower.
Sandy and I came of age in a
world that valued public service
as a way to help people improve

the quality of their lives. Given

Sandys rare combination of intellect, personality and sense of
social responsibility, a career in
public service was a natural fit.
That his work would take
him to a point where he would
become one of the key architects
of our nations foreign policy, and
by extension the worlds, is remarkable but even more remarkable is that it never changed him. I
believe it was his capacity to keep
the important things in life in perspective that drew an estimated
1,000 people to Temple Sinai to
remember Sandy and celebrate
his life.
As usual, Sandy said it best
when in an Aug. 25, 1999, interview in The New York Times he
told R.W. Apple: Where I grew
up is very important to what I
am. My perspectives are still more

Village-wide holiday celebration Dec. 13

By WHITNEY JOSEPH
MILLERTON This is the

season of celebrations, and the
village of Millerton is right in
the thick of such activities. The
Millerton Business Association
has organized a village-wide seasonal celebration this upcoming
weekend. There will be a film,
fundraising and frolicking, for
all to enjoy.
Frank Capras Its a Wonderful Life, with Jimmy Stewart and
Donna Reed, is the quintessential
holiday film. On Sunday, Dec. 13,
at 11 a.m., area residents will be
able to enjoy the classic on the big
screen, thanks in part to sponsors
at The Moviehouse and Salisbury
Bank and Trust.
I think it should be really fun,
said Moviehouse owner Carol

Sadlon. Its a nice way to do it,
and its not just one person doing it but a lot of people getting
on board to make a special time.
Its exciting, and several people
said they would like to make it
an annual event.
In addition to the showing of
Its a Wonderful Life, there will
be horse-drawn carriage rides
throughout the village on Dec. 13,
all day long. The carriage rides are
being sponsored by Associated
Lightning Rod and Over Mountain Builders.
We wanted to make it more of
a community-wide event instead
of just a Moviehouse event, said
Sadlon. The Millerton Business
Association stepped up and is
raising some money for Astor
Head Start. The event is really just
a free celebration for the community.

Townscape did an amazing
job this year lighting all the trees
and the town looks really beautiful, and all of the shops pitched
in and did their own decorating,
she said. Its a really special community and why we chose the
tag line, Its a Wonderful Life, Its
a Wonderful Town, Millerton.
The fundraising that Sadlon
mentioned is being organized by
business association leader Dick
Hermans, of Oblong Books.
The part that Im doing is a
little fundraiser for Astor Head
Start, Hermans said. Were trying to come up with 20 businesses to put little donation
containers on their counters to
see how much we can raise for
Astor. Were hoping for $1,000,
Stefanopoulos plans for new

restaurant at Simmons Way
By GABRIEL NAPOLEON
Special to The Millerton News
MILLERTON About one
year ago, Four Brothers restaurant chain co-founder Peter Stefanopoulos purchased the Main
Street building colloquially known
as Simmons Way.
At that time, the building
housed No. 9 Restaurant & Inn.
Stefanopoulos said then that
the existing arrangement would
stay, with the landowner renting
to Tim and Taryn Cocheo, who
owned No. 9.
However, last month the
Cocheos closed shop and Stefanopoulos is planning anew.
The restaurateur, who also
owns The Boathouse in Lakeville,
Conn., said hes already hired the
best chef and is mapping out new
architecture and design.
The food, he said, will be a little
bit of everything. The restaurant
will be a place for New Yorkers
and also for the local people.
The owner hopes to open next
spring. So far, theres no official
name.
Meanwhile the Cocheos, who
opened No. 9 in 2009, have relocated to Vermont.
Taryn emphasized appreciation for the restaurants customers throughout the years.
Thank you to all our patrons
over the last six years, she said.
We loved serving you.
Before No. 9, there was Simmons Way Village Inn, founded
in the 1980s by Robert and Carol
Sadlon, who own The Moviehouse across the street.
More recent owners were
Richard and Nancy Carter and
then Jay and Martha Reynolds,
who sold to Stefanopoulos for
$675,000.
Car wash closes
Another business that recently
closed is Stateline Car Wash, on
the Connecticut border on Route
44.
Owner Tom Coons could not
be reached for comment before
press time.
However, Aquarius Water, the
propertys pool water service purchased by Brendan Pollock from
Coons last spring, remains in
business.
Correcting Errors
We are happy to correct errors

in news stories when they are
called promptly to our attention.
We are also happy to correct
factual and/or typographical
errors in advertisements when
such errors affect meaning.
Notice of such error must be
given to us after the first run of
the advertisement.
but whether we can raise $200,

$800 or $1,200, I dont know. At
the moment, I have 16 businesses
that are going to do it and I expect
to hear from more.
The donation boxes will be
placed on businesses counter
tops village wide Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 11, 12 and 13.
The money will help Astor get
through tight financial times, said
Hermans.
Apparently, they get their
funding as reimbursements for
services, and they run into problems at certain times of the year
when they have to put out money
to get things. It gets tight. The
goal is to give them a little nest
egg to allow them to float through
those situations and not worry
about the money.
Astor Head Start is a federally funded program for children
from low-income families, according to its website. It is a preschool developmental program
of early childhood education
and ancillary services including
health [physical, dental, mental],
nutrition and social services, with
extensive parental involvement
MILLERTON
and participation. Children with

disabilities are served within a
fully integrated setting with nondisabled children.
There is an Astor center right
in Millerton serving local children.
I dont remember Astor ever
coming to the business community and asking for money, said
Hermans, who just celebrated
his stores 40th anniversary. It
should be a no-brainer to support
what theyre doing.
And what a fun way to do it,
said Sadlon. There will be cider,
cookies and candy canes for those
who attend Sundays festivities.
Santa will also stop by, on a Millerton Fire Company firetruck, to
visit with children. One anonymous donor is making little bells
on ribbons to hand out to the
little ones, to tie in the movies
bell theme.
Well be spreading holiday
cheer, said Sadlon. There will be
a lot of people pitching in to make
it a special day. Hopefully people
who come to the movie will stay
in Millerton to enjoy everything
the town has to offer.

Library celebrates
the holidays, thanks
the community
By WHITNEY JOSEPH
AMENIA Library patrons
and board members gathered
together in the small but cozy
Amenia Free Library on Sunday
afternoon, Dec. 6, to celebrate all
the library does and the community it serves.
Its a good way to thank the
community and all of the people
who support us, said library
board member Ginny Eschbach.
There was good conversation
and delectable treats for all to enjoy. A table stacked with desserts,
and the librarys famous wassail
spiced apple cider, welcomed
guests to chew while they chatted.
The goodies, we have the
board make them, said Library
Director Miriam Devine. This is
our own thing, we dont ask anybody else to bake, unlike our book
and bake sale. This is to show our
appreciation and to thank the
community for its support.
We just appreciate the support
the community gives us and this is
the one thing we can do without
spending a lot of money to show
them that, said library board
President Alan Gamble. People
make donations to the book sale
to help us out. If nobody used us
there would be no purpose for us.
We like to look back at the end of
the year, and there were 16,000 to
17,000 transactions for the year.
It blows you away.
One steadfast Amenia Free Li-
brary patron is Janet Byrne, who

now lives in Millbrook.
Ive been coming here since
I moved into Amenia in 2001,
she said. I was here for four or
five years and then even when I
moved away I continued to come
back every weekend. Ive known
Miriam and Tina for years.
Theyre wonderful.
Byrne said when requests are
made of the library it delivers,
even if it has to do some legwork
to do so.
Ive seen people asking for
historical information and if
Miriam and Tina dont know it
themselves they know where to
get it, she said. And on Saturdays
this is a social hub. I love it.
Like many of those in attendance on Sunday, Byrne said
shes been attending the librarys
winter celebration for a number
of years.
Its wonderful, she said. Ive
been here for the last few open
houses and its very nice. You
get to meet and see some great
people. Its very nice. Miriam and
Tina do a nice job.
It was the librarys 25th Holiday Open House. Those who were
able to mix and mingle said they
enjoyed themselves thoroughly.
The library board agreed it was
the perfect way to welcome in the
holiday season.
For more information on the
Amenia Free Library go to www.
amenialibrary.org or call 845373-8273.
AMENIA The Town Board

met for a regular workshop at
Town Hall on Thursday, Dec. 3.
After opening the meeting, Supervisor Victoria Perotti moved
to go into executive session for
matters relating to collective negotiations under the Taylor Law.
Councilperson Vicki Doyle seconded the motion, and the present members voted for the session
unanimously.
After an hour and 30 minutes,
the board returned to public session, now with Councilperson
Stephen Perotti, who was absent
at the meetings opening.
I make a motion that we hire
David Wise as our attorney to
help us with labor negotiations
at a rate of $185 per hour, effective immediately, said Doyle, after reopening. Supervisor Perotti
seconded, and the board approved
unanimously.
Then I make a motion that we
accept Teamster Union 456 as the
bargaining agent for the highway
department workers, Doyle said.
Again, Supervisor Perotti seconded. All but Councilperson Perotti voted in favor. Doyle made
another motion, for Supervisor
Perotti to sign a letter to Teamster
Union 456 accepting it as bargaining agent. Supervisor Perotti
seconded and the vote was 4-1,
Councilperson Perotti voting no.
The meeting resumed with
public comment. Wassaic resident Jeff Barnett-Winsby urged
the board to approve a sidewalk
cleaning resolution for the coming winter. Snow Removal Decision appeared later on the workshop agenda.
At the previous meeting, the
board accepted a partial bid from
Al Smith & Son Excavating to
plow Town Hall this season at
$1,400. The remainder of the bid
asked $10,100 for Wassaic and
Amenia hamlet sidewalks.
Barnett-Winsby said, I think
that the shared cost for the community is far lower than what you
would see individually for the
taxpayers. He said that he would
need to purchase a snowblower if
the town did not plow.
Councilperson Gretchen Hitselberger responded.
I just wanted to let you know

that, whether or not the Town
Board decides to or to not plow,
it is still in the code that property
owners are responsible for their
sidewalks being cleaned, she said.
Barnett-Winsby said that he
will continue plowing the townleased parking lot in front of the
Lantern Inn, which he manages.
Councilperson Perotti said
Amenia should hire its own staff
to take care of sidewalks, and to
contract the service for 10 years
and then to up and stop doing it
is unconscionable.
At the end of the day, it is the
property owners responsibility to
make sure that their sidewalk is
clear, no matter who does whatever initial clearing, or thorough
clearing, Hitselberger said.
When motion for approval
came to the floor, Councilperson
Michael DeLango said his biggest problem with cleaning these
sidewalks was that for $10,000,
they cannot be done properly.
DeLango added that if its not
plowed properly, Amenia could
get into liability issues.
When we do our bids for the
sidewalk cleaning, there is no
provision for that big mound to

Much, much more than a casual bistro! Their dinners are superb and maybe the

Warren Carter, Salisbury Wines, Salisbury, CT.
The Bistro is a treasure. Rowena loves the Salmon Wasabi, while I find any
steak wonderful, and the duck moist and flavorful. We had a private party
recently and all of us felt very special with the care and atmosphere created for us
-- wonderful staff --.

I have been dining at the Bistro for years and have never been disappointed. I
happen to love escargot baked in the shells and always find myself ordering them
prior to any of their delicious entrees.

be removed between the parking

spot and the sidewalk, DeLango
added. So the sidewalk could be
as clean as it could be, but you
could have a four-foot snow bank
to get over from the parking lot.
DeLango owns DeLango Automotive on Main Street.
DeLango said that before the
town took over sidewalk cleaning 10 years ago, the individual
owners all did their part and the
sidewalks were cleaner.
Its small town helping small
town, he said, and unfortunately
because the town of Amenia is
taking on this expense and this responsibility, that is out of the window now because everybody says,
Amenia took it over. Its their job
to clean it, let them do it.
Doyle said that its in the law
that what the town is doing is just
the initial clearing, and its up to
each property owner to make sure
that the rest of it is cleaned and
maintained and they are responsible for it.
The bid was approved 3-2.
DeLango and Hitselberger voted
no.

Deuels holds liquidation sale

By GABRIEL NAPOLEON
gabrieln@millertonnews.com
PINE PLAINS After 37 years
in business, Deuels Home Center
owner Joan Taylor is readying for
retirement with a liquidation sale.
Joan and her late husband,
Robert, purchased the business
from Mike Rosenthal, whose
father Paul Rosenthal bought it
from Sam Deuel, who founded it
in the early 1900s.
At that time, Joan and Robert
were living in Wisconsin where
they each worked as educators.
We decided we needed to
have a different lifestyle and
found out this property was for
sale and wound up buying it,
Joan said.
The couple had no retail experience, but thanks to some training from the younger Rosenthal
and True Value courses, they
managed to run the business for
several decades.
Deuels Home Center is a True
Value store with a Just Ask Rental
component.
Joan, an Ancram native, kept
her ties to education in Pine
Plains. Until three years ago, she
was a math teacher at Stissing
Mountain High School.
Juggling both gigs was hard,
she said.
It was basically like having
two full-time jobs, she said.
Though time has come to
move on from work, Joan said
she will not move on from town.
This is my home, I dont plan
to move, she said, though she is
looking for some new adventures.
The sale started with discounts
up to 75 percent off, and as the
liquidation continues, discounts
will increase.
Hours remain the same: Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5

The following information was

provided by the New York State Police.
All suspects are considered innocent
until proven guilty in a court of law.
Criminal mischief arrest
On Tuesday, Nov. 17, New York
State Police from the Dover Plains
barracks arrested Ryan J. Williams,
32, of Dover, for criminal mischief
fourth degree, a class A misdemeanor.
On Nov. 12, troopers were dispatched to investigate a criminal
mischief complaint in Dover. The
victim reported that someone had
broken his living room window on
or about Wednesday, Nov. 11. Police
conducted an investigation and allege that Williams was responsible
for the damage to the victims window.
Williams was issued an appearance ticket directing him to appear
before the town of Dover Justice
Court on Thursday, Nov. 19.
Criminal contempt arrest

On Tuesday, Nov. 17, The New
York State Police in Rhinebeck arrested Julie Mathers, 54, of Ancram,
for three counts of criminal contempt in the second degree, a class
A misdemeanor.
Mathers reportedly violated an
active stay away order of protection
directing her to refrain from having contact with two protected parties named on a court order. The
defendant reportedly visited one
protected party who was lodged
in the Dutchess County Jail on two
occasions. Additionally, she allegedly violated the court order when
she sent a text message to another
protected party.
Mathers was arraigned in the
Stanford Justice Court and was remanded to Dutchess County Jail in
lieu of $1,000 cash bail or $2,000
secured bond. She was due back in
court on Wednesday, Nov. 18.
SHERIFFS REPORT
The following information was
provided by the Dutchess County
Sheriffs Office. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty in
a court of law.
Firearm theft charges
The Dutchess County Sheriffs
Office reports the arrest of Scott
Sweeney, 39, of Dover Plains, for
grand larceny in connection with a
stolen rifle from the town of Wappinger.
The theft was reported to the
Sheriffs Office in late October
2015, after which the Detective
Bureau became involved and con-
ducted further investigation. During the investigation Sweeney was

identified as a potential suspect and
is accused of stealing the rifle and
then selling it to another person.
Sweeney was arrested on Saturday,

MILLBROOK
Parade of Lights, tree lighting

welcome holiday season
MILLBROOK For the

fourth year, the Village of Millbrook hosted the Parade of
Lights, a festival of more than 50
floats, brightly lit and musical. As
one parade-watcher exclaimed,
Wow! This is the best one yet!
From so many people working
on this Christmas extravaganza,
the Millbrook Business Association, the Millbrook Fire Department, the Auxiliary of the Fire
Department and Brian Hicks, a
volunteer with the Millbrook Fire
Department, were given most of
the credit for the program, which
seemed to have gone off without
a hitch.
The Dec. 4 ceremony began
with the tree lighting sponsored
by The Millbrook Business Association. President Mary Alex
introduced Mayor Laura Hurley. Essay contest winner Lorraine Affigne was the official tree
lighter. Her essay was What the
Holidays Mean to Me. Joe Daily
of 92.1 radios morning show was
the official announcer.
As the floats passed by, one
child said, Its better than Macys

parade!
The first float carried the girls
volleyball team, which came within one game of winning the New
York State Class C Championship. They were greeted by loud
cheers.
The parade included tractors,
firetrucks, lawn mowers and childrens motorized vehicles.
One float was dedicated to
Scott Meyer, the owner of Merritt Bookstore who died over the
summer. Merritt had its own
float, as did Voorhees, Hitchcock
Cattle Corp., Murphys and several scout troops. There was an
American Flyer float. Boice Antique Machinery was represented.
There were just too many to list.
Talking with both Alex and
Hicks, the program was extremely
successful and each year the parade has gotten bigger and better.
This is a community event where
all are encouraged not to just
watch the parade, but to get active
in it. Hicks said they even had lessons this year to show people how
to come up with ideas for floats
and to then implement them.
The night for many began with

a trip to the wooden manger set
up near the entrance to the Tribute Garden Park, near the official
tree. After the tree lighting and
the parade, all were invited to
the Millbrook Fire Department
where Santa, Mrs. Claus and
elf Speedy waited to greet the
throngs. Hot chocolate, donuts
and other treats were provided
by the Fire Auxiliary.
Hicks is already planning for
the 2016 festivities. He said, We

always try to do something different, provide something for everyone. We want the community
to be involved in every way. This
year we had two small motorized
vehicles with little kids, next year
maybe well have 25.
An estimated 1,000 people
turned out for the parade, and
more than 200 of them went to
the firehouse for Santa and treats.
First Saturday considered a success

MILLBROOK Millbrooks
first First Saturday, held on Dec.
5, was so successful the Millbrook
Business Association hopes to

topics of discussion
MILLBROOK J. McLaughlins took center stage Friday,
Nov. 27, during a book-signing
event hosted by Colleen Howland,
Jay McLaughlin and Jack Lynch.
The public was invited, and a
great many attended, greeted by
Rebecca Seaman, Chairman of
the Dutchess Land Conservancy
(DLC). She highlighted the work
done by the DLC during the organizations 30-year history, discussing the preservation of more
than 39,000 acres of farmland,
water resources, scenic views and
wildlife habitats.
Another highlight that night
was a book signing for Packing
for Travel. Author Karen Klopp,
founder of www.What2WearWhere.com, was on hand, as
was the books illustrator, Lara
Glaister. The book is touted as

a must-have for those who travel
frequently. From jet set to trek
set, [it is] the definitive globetrotting guide, states the book.
Both author and illustrator
graciously signed the books and
engaged in conversation with the
sizeable crowd. The book addresses what to wear in all seasons and
includes quirky tips, like what to
wear when clay shooting, fly fishing or tending business. It also addresses dressing for athletics and
formal happenings like weddings.
It is fully illustrated, in color,
and includes all kinds of tips on
traveling, health tips, where to
shop and how to dress for a specific body type. It also includes
many check lists and resources.
To round out the day, J.
McLaughlin donated 15 percent
of all sales to the Dutchess Land
Conservancy.

Webutuck readies for basketball season

By GABRIEL NAPOLEON
WEBUTUCK The Webutuck High School Warriors are

back on the basketball court with
both girls and boys varsity programs this winter.
Girls
The varsity girls will be
coached by Webutucks Athletic
Director Jon Zenz.
After not having a varsity
team last year, the Webutuck
girls basketball program will
have a junior varsity ( JV) and
varsity team for the 2015-16 sea-
son, said Zenz.

The goal for the season is to
be competitive and experience a
win, he added.
The coach highlighted players
Kenya Blue and Ruo Nan Huang
as his varsity anchors, while an
exciting group of younger players are poised for a fun season.
Boys
The varsity boys team will be
coached by Pete Iuele.
Varsity player Hunter
Coulthard previewed the teams
approaching season during an
interview.
We lost some seniors but
have a good core group of juniors returning, along with

some sophomores that should
really help us out big time, he
said.
Coulthard himself is a senior.
His position is forward.
A lot of the same guys from
soccer are on the team, so we
look to keep going on a positive
note and look to start the season
off right, he added.
(Webutucks varsity soccer
team won its sectional championship this year.)
Should be much improved
over last year, Coulthard said.
Were already putting in more

work than years in the past.
More information
Webutuck competes in the
New York State Public High
School Athletic Associations

The teams are categorized as
Class C. Classes are based on
student body size.
The school is a member of the

Adopt-A-Family just
one way to help others
during the holidays
here are so many worthy causes at this time of

year in fact all year long. Its impossible to
list all of them or to focus on every cause worth
fighting for. But theres one cause in particular, especially well-known to those who live in Millerton, that
stands out during the holidays: Adopt-A-Family.
During its 20-year-plus history, Adopt-A-Family has provided new winter clothing and toys to children in need from
newborns to 16-year-olds. Donors have the choice of dropping
off clothes or toys in person, sending in a check for an amount
of their choosing (always useful) or actually adopting out a
child or entire family for Christmastime for a set amount.
Organizer Stacey Moore has been at it for two decades.
Before that, the late Mariley Najdek founded the program to
benefit children affiliated with Astor Head Start, a federally funded program for children from low-income families.
Theres an Astor center right in Millerton. Najdek was its
executive director for years and years and instituted many
goodwill projects throughout the community during her
tenure, from Adopt-A-Family to the Millerton Food Pantry.
Moore eventually took over the Adopt-A-Family program, which grew and grew. Instead of just helping local
Millerton families, now it assists any child in need from the
North East (Webutuck) or Pine Plains central school districts. That covers a lot of towns, and a lot of households.
And donations come from all over the map, from
around the Hudson Valley to the Northwest Corner of
Connecticut. Moore stressed that the program would
be nowhere without the generosity of area residents.
Shes right. Programs like Adopt-A-Family, or the Sunday in the Country Food Drive (a major fundraiser during
Thanksgiving and Christmas that feeds hundreds of hungry residents), depend on each and every one of us.
The fact that so many people donate shows just how
caring this community is. Residents dont shy away
from difficulties but rather look for solutions. And one
solution to the problem of children not having a happy Christmas is Adopt-A-Family. If possible, try to be a
part of that solution. Try to donate if you can. For details
on how to do so turn to this weeks story on Page A1.
Also worth noting, the village of Millerton is celebrating the holidays with a showing of Its a Wonderful Life,
horse-drawn carriage rides, Santa and plenty of treats
on Sunday, Dec. 13. That weekend, village merchants will
have donation boxes to raise much-needed funds for Astor Head Start. Think about stopping by one of those
stores and making a donation no amount is too small.
And to all of those other causes this holiday season, good
luck! We know how hard it is to do good works in todays
world. Send us news about your efforts and activities and well
try to include it in the paper. After all, it takes a village
Time to scold childish adults
arent remember children

saying they didnt want,
perhaps, to eat broccoli
with a petulant, I hate broccoli. Or peas, or liver, or fish,
or whatever. And as parents
we scolded our kids for saying
they already hated something
they had not tried or, if they
had tasted it, there was no way
they could hate it perhaps
they could say they did not
prefer it, or perhaps even they
could say they did not like the
taste of broccoli. But hate the
plant itself? How irrational to
say you hate something when
in reality all you can say is that
you do not like it very much.
According to the American
Psychological Association, hate
is a dangerous state of mind.
Hate is among the most powerful of human emotions
Hate can lead to blind opposition, mistrust of even the simplest actions (including generous ones) and often promotes
a terrifying psychological need
of the hater to disregard the
personhood of others. Disregarding the personhood of
others can easily lead to violence and death. The tools are
there, we all know that, we all
see that (sadly) every day.
Something has happened
in America to well-meaning
adults. They have forgotten to
behave as adults. Instead of
quite appropriately saying
they do not prefer the opinions
of others, or that they do not
like or want to associate with
other people or their beliefs,
they have, like spoiled children,
chosen to hate instead. You
hear it all the time, they hate
this and hate that. Their
speech is peppered with hate
and words that demonstrate
their physiological patho-

THE EDGE

logical? hatred for things
they do not agree with. For
example, the Internet and public demonstrations are filled
with people saying they hate
the president, or that they hate
their congressmen and women, or the police, or that they
hate Muslims, Christians, Jews.
And politicians and would-be
elected officials spout the rhetoric of hate to cuddle up to baby-minded people, condoning
and magnifying the most base
and most childlike behavior
with hate speech.
And yet, when you speak
with someone who had, for
example, said they hate illegal
immigrants, and you ask this
question, Do you really hate
them as individual people or
do you disagree with their illegality and dislike what they
have done? Dislike or disagree
with that is normal human
thought, normal consideration. People are allowed opinions, even prejudices. Civilized
conversation can follow providing that leap off the spoiled
childs cliff of hate does not
become the manifestation of
what is, after all, only opinion.
Remember, if you hear
someone say they hate this or
that doesnt that remind you
of the child who hasnt tasted
broccoli and yet is dead certain
they hate it? Spoiled brats all.

of Amenia Union, now lives in

and town of North East for regularly displaying the American
flag. This is the patriotic spirit I
knew when I was mayor, a Volunteer Ambulance Squad member and active in the Millerton
Gun Club and a Scout Leader.
On my count this past week,
22 businesses of the 109 proudly
displayed Old Glory. My concern, however, is the other 87
businesses that do not. Is patriotism fleeting in our hometown?
Do we want to instill the same
sense of patriotism into our
children? Have the open flags
become more important to us as
a village, town, and nation than
the Star Spangled Banner?
Besides these 22 businesses,

the only other patriotic bright
light in Millerton is Jimmy
Campbell and his crew, who on
holidays ceremoniously put up
flags throughout the village. I
want to say a special thanks to
Jimmy and his crew for continuing this time-honored tradition.
I also want to challenge the
other businesses, as well as every homeowner, to display the
flag regularly and proudly. Our
nation deserves it. Our children deserve it. Our village and
town deserve it. Lastly, our service-members should see this
anytime they come to our village
and town, not just on holidays.

The Club is deeply appreciative to everyone in the
community for their support
of fundraisers like their golf
tournament, Community Classic Car Show, chicken BBQ and
last weekends 300 Club Event.
Every dollar raised goes back
into the community with the
exception of the $2,000 donation raised for the Juvenile
Diabetes Research Foundation
( JDRF).
Recently, the Lions donated
$1,000 to the Adopt-A-Family Program, another $1,000 to
the Sunday in the Country and
food basket drives, have collected eyeglasses to be recycled, and
donated $1,000 toward the new
vision screening equipment
utilized to screen pre-school
children in the community. The
Amenia Lions will also help pay
for vision/hearing screenings
and eyeglasses and hearing aids
if people cannot afford them.
One of the highlights of the
year is hosting the Ralph Vinchiarello Memorial Kids Fishing Derby in May. All of these
things are possible thanks to
our generous community.
Dont forget to support the
annual Memory Tree. The tree
is dedicated this by Murphys
Crest Tree Farm in Amenia and
proceeds from the memory tree
are earmarked for the Dutchess
Hearing Conservation Committee. You may pick up a
memory tree form at the following businesses: Jacks Auto
in Wassaic, Larry Havens Real
Estate, Freshtown and Cascade
Spirit Shoppe, or from any Lions Club member. Memory
Tree names must be submitted
by Dec. 11 to appear in the Dec.
24 issue of The Millerton News.
We extend best wishes for
the holiday season and consider joining the Club in the New
Year.

In January 2013, the Bank of

Millbrook took ownership of the
property located at 7775 Main St.,
Pine Plains, through a foreclosure
process. Most residents know this
building as the Pine Plains Library
and Community Center. Unfortunately, the Community Center
closed up and the Pine Plains Library had to move into their former cramped quarters.
After nearly three years of negotiations and legal proceedings,
the property was purchased by the
town of Pine Plains. The library is
planning on moving back to its
former home and the Pine Plains
community will have a great resource again.
I would like to thank the Town
of Pine Plains Board, especially
Supervisor Coons, for having the
vision and understanding that a library is one of the foundations of
a small community. I would further like to thank the group of donors who pledged over $500,000,
making the purchase by the town
possible. Additionally, I would
like to thank Mr. James Mara for
all of his hard work on making
this transaction happen. Jim wore
many hats in this process; Pine
Plains Library President, FOSL
Trustee, Pine Plains resident and
community leader.
We look forward to seeing the
books, computers and more importantly, the users, going back
into the building. Pine Plains is
moving forward with positive
events happening in the downtown district. The towns acquisition of this property added to this
forward motion.

Thanks to FRIENDS
I would like to give my personal thanks to the dedicated
FRIENDS of the Pine Plains Free
Library officers and directors and
to our membership.
As a group, the FRIENDS have
been privileged to have many
generous members and we continue to try and give back to the
library and the community. It
was a great pleasure today to give
84 books to the Food Locker and
the Adopt-A-Family organization
as part of our OUTREACH programs. The books, and a financial
contribution, will be distributed
to those in need in the Pine Plains
and the Northeast communities
by these worthy groups.
Our OUTREACH program
to the Senior Gamers group last
month was a great success and
well coordinated between Cris
Hedges (Senior Gamers) and
Kathy Rigano (town supervisors
secretary), with the town providing the transportation. We look
forward to continuing this relationship.
There are many amazing people who volunteer their time to
run the above mentioned groups
and I am thankful we can contribute in some small way. Together
you/we have made a difference.

VIEWPOINT
How are environmentalists using crowdfunding?

Dear EarthTalk: How are
environmentalists and environmental groups using crowdfunding to get their projects off the
ground?
Sean Jackson
Baltimore, Md.
Crowdfunding relies on
the collective effort of a large
amount of individuals making
online contributions to allow
a project or venture to happen.
ArtistShare, a website that allows
fans to fund the creation of new
artistic works, was the Internets
first fan-funded crowdfunding
platform, launching its initial
project in October 2003. Today, crowdfunding is a bit more
crowded, to say the least, and
among the most popular sites
for this purpose today are GoFundMe, IndieGoGo, Kickstarter and Razoo. Crowdfunding has
grown from a market of $880
million in 2010 to $16 billion in
2014, with 2015 estimated to surpass $34 billion.
A wide variety of both small
and large-scale environmen-

tal endeavors are now utilizing
this revolutionary new kind of
fundraising. In November 2015,
Indiegogo.com, the largest global crowdfunding platform, allowed the HomeBiogas system
to reach their fundraising goal of
$100,000 in 24 hours. The HomeBiogas system is a family-sized
biogas system that converts any
organic waste into clean cooking gas and a high quality liquid
fertilizer for the garden. With the
system, 2.2 pounds of food waste
produces an average of about
200 liters of gas, which generates around one hour of cooking
over a high flame. Also, using the
HomeBiogas for one year saves
six tons of CO2, the equivalent of
your cars yearly emission. The
campaign will be active on Indi-

and with the support gained they
hope to streamline the products
to households by May 2016.
On KickStarter.com, a creative project-focused crowdfunding site where every project
is an opportunity to create the
universe and culture you want to
see, over 2,000 people pledged a

total of some $280,000 to fund
the Little Sun Charge high-performance solar phone charger,
developed by artist Olafur Eliasson and engineer Frederik Ottesen. Backers of the Little Sun,
which offers a full smartphone
charge from five hours of sun-
shine, are projected to receive

the product in March 2016. The
device is handheld and can be
clipped to a backpack to collect
sun when walking outdoors.
Smaller scale but equally impactful current environmental efforts seeking
crowdfunding include: Ashley
Hoffmans Fundraiser for the
Kentucky Association for Environmental Education; the World
Parrot Trust USAs effort to save
wild parrots from being stolen
from their nests and forced into
captivity; the Washington Youth
Gardens living garden classroom that provides hands-on
science learning, inspires environmental stewardship and cultivates healthy food choices in
youth and families; the Franklin
Land Trusts work with Western Massachusetts landowners
to conserve farms, woodlands
and scenic vistas; and the Nature Conservancys innovative
approach to turn farmland into
temporary habitat for millions of
migrating birds. All of these campaigns are posted on Razoo.com,
which has helped non-profit

organizations raise $450 million since 2006. Any registered
non-profit can claim its Razoo
page and start raising money
online immediately through the
sites customizable fundraising
portal.
While crowdfunding to support environmental campaigns
and projects may still be in its infancy, no doubt more and more
non-profit leaders and activists
will embrace it as a way to expand their constituencies and
pay for operations in the most
democratic way possible.

roads, [and] their efforts to rid

Dutchess County of impaired
drivers 24 hours a day, seven
days a week, 365 days a year,
said Dutchess County STOP-DWI
Coordinator William C. Johnson.
Motorists who choose to drive
while impaired by alcohol or
drugs will be arrested no excuses, no warnings as Dutchess
County simply does not tolerate
one drivers bad choices to adversely affect those with whom
they share the road.
And theres always an alternative to driving while impaired,
said Veeder.
Usually I tell people there are
two choices you could make, he
said. One is to get a safe ride
home, which is always the best
way, even if you only had a couple
of drinks and dont think youre
impaired. Hopefully you make the
right one and get a safe ride home.
Thats the ultimate goal for me as
an officer and for other officers.
Theres always a way home,
Veeder added. The thing I have
people tell me is they dont have
a ride home, but after theyre arrested they always seem to make
that one phone call and get a safe
ride home, whether from a taxi,
friend or neighbor. When people

tell me that, I kind of tell them
that there are plenty of rides and
plenty of people to call.
Veeder said he trained for the
STOP-DWI Program, among others, with nine months in the police academy, as required by New
York state. Officer Veeder went to
one recent class entitled ARIDE
(Advanced Roadside Impaired
Driving Enforcement). He said
the two-day class was especially
helpful.
That was two 16-hour classes
that focused on impaired driving
and what to look for and different
clues and signs, he said. I was
fortunate enough that the Millerton Police Department sent
me to that.
The bottom line, he said, is to
make sure anyone who gets behind the wheel is sober.
If theyre a threat to anybody
on the road if my wife and
kids are on the road and they hit
them thats a real problem, the
officer said. New York state is
really tough with impaired drivers, which is good. It teaches the
operator if you go out and have
a good time thats fine, just get a
safe ride home.

enjoying the summer sun on the

front porch of the former Simmons Way inn on Main Street. He
had a Secret Service detail there
keeping an eye on everyone who
walked up the steps to see him.
There are still plenty of people
around the area who remember
him. One of his closest friends,
from the time they were in kindergarten, was Ed Downey. Ed
shared some memories with me
of Sandy, in his office late on
Thursday, Dec. 3. He and his wife,
Meg, were flying to Washington
the next morning for the memorial service.
I also talked at length to my
cousin Laurie (Sandys sister); she
and her husband, Phil, were in
their car driving from their New
Jersey home to Washington, also
for the service and to be with
Sandys widow, Susan, and the
three Berger children.
Bergers Department Store
Sandy and Lauries childhood
here in Millerton has a kind of
mythic quality. Of course my family always talked about the tragic
early death of their father, Al
Berger. But after I moved here to
the Tri-state region 20 years ago,
I used to hear about Als death
from people in town, especially
Lew Saperstein, who was a few
years younger than my cousins
but knows their history well.

In part, this could be because
the Saperstein family and the
Berger family had parallel businesses. They both ran apparel
shops in the center of town. If
you read the national newspapers, they all say that the Bergers
owned an Army Navy Surplus
store here in town. Thats a correct but incomplete version of
the familys businesses. Ed shared
with me an old newspaper clipping that described Als arrival
here in town, in 1929, when he
was in his 20s (Rose followed
later).
In case youre wondering, Rose
was a member of the Lehr-man
family, and so am I. Thats how
Sandy and I are cousins.
Al moved here from Brooklyn
and opened Bergers Army and
Navy Store, which he ran until,
interestingly, he was drafted into
the U.S. Army. That store was
on South Center Street, Ed said.
It burned down in a fire several
years ago; the playground for the
Northeast Community Center is
on the spot where the store used
to stand.
Laurie remembers her father
as an entrepreneurial type, who
started several businesses here
and then sold them. According to
a 1952 newspaper article that Ed

gloves; winter jackets; and more.
For more specifics call Moore at
518-789-4508.
I think were going on almost
20 years now, she said of the
program, noting it started with
Mariley Najdek of Astor Head
Start even earlier. Its grown. It
originally started with just Astor
Head Start in Millerton; there
might have been 20 families.
Then Pine Plains reached out to
us and said Can you take us on?
then Amenia reached out to us
and said Can you take us on, too?
Then we made it for everyone in
the [two] school districts.
The program works with
teachers, social workers, food
pantries, churches and others
who can help determine where
the greatest need is. Those entities, and others, like area horse
farms, all pitch in and make donations. To increase participation Moore has reached out to
the community at large.
Its pretty phenomenal, she
said. Its equally the Tri-state
area our neighbors in Sharon,
Lakeville and Salisbury, Conn.,
are equally supportive of our
cause. And here in Millerton that
expands to Millerton, Pine Plains
and Amenia. Theres a need
and we live in a very generous
area. Its not that everybody is
flush with money, they just give
to others instead of themselves.
To help raise funds for the
program, Adopt-A-Family hosted
a roast beef dinner in October.
Mary and Jim Hosier, of Talk of
the Towne Deli, donated their
time and services for the event,
which raised $5,000. Half of the
proceeds were split with the Sunday in the Country Food Drive.
Also, about 50 meals were sponsored for needy families and senior citizens that day.

CHRISTMAS DAY
shared with me, when Al returned

from his military service he bought
the Parsons Glen-Lake Laundry
in Millerton; he later opened and
operated New England Cleaners,
which is still open, on Route 44
(he sold the business in 1951). He
also at one point owned a business
that made aviator suits during the
Korean War.
In 1952 he purchased what was
known kind of grandly as a department store in the center of town,
in the building that is now home
to Oblong Books and Music. According to the newspaper article,
the store had been around for 68
years and had been owned by two
men named Goodman and Strauss
and then by Irving Bloch. Blochs
Department Store became Bergers
Department Store.
Laurie remembers that this was
the first business in which her father actively involved her mother.
She had been a schoolteacher
and didnt feel she was suited to
business, but it turned out she had
great business acumen, Laurie recalled. My father trained her, and
Sandy and I worked there too. He
swept the floors and stocked the
shelves. I helped with sales.
Laurie wonders now if her
father had a premonition that he
was in failing health. Perhaps, she
thinks, he knew that he needed
to prepare his young family to

survive without him. Two years
after opening the store, he died
suddenly of a heart attack at age
44. Laurie was 12, Sandy was 8.
At first our mother wasnt
sure what she should do with the
store, she said. But she decided
eventually to give it a try. She
though it would give her some
financial security, so she could
pay for us both to go to college.
The Central School District
Education was important to
the family. Laurie recalled that
Rose Berger was part of the group
that helped regionalize the small,
town schools into what is now
the Webutuck Central School
District.
According to the local news article about his death, Al Berger had
been a member of the new Central School Board of Education.
Millerton schools were closed
for a half day March 16 in memory
of Mr. Berger, the article said.
Many Millerton business places
were also closed during the funeral
services on March 16.
The article described Al Berger
as one of Millertons most civicminded residents. Certainly this
legacy was passed along to his son,
Ed Downey said.
three toys and go to Sapersteins

for $125 worth of clothing. Thats
a wonderful Christmas, and my
thing is that but for the grace of
God this could be anyone of us in
that very same position.
Poughkeepsie resident Sarajane Inglis brought a car load of
toys to drop off for Adopt-AFamily on Thursday, Dec. 3. She
said they were basic toys, but added that way her dollar stretched
further than it would have with
electronic toys.
Theres a need out here, she
said, everybody does Poughkeepsie. We did this last year, too, because we dont need for anything.

It was really great, said

Moore.
In the summer, Adopt-AFamily held a golf tournament
fundraiser, which raised another
$5,000.
It got us rolling to raise money toward clothing, said Moore
of that event.
The fact is that I couldnt do
what I do, period, if it wasnt for
the communitys generosity. Bottom line. Certainly in years past
we would worry that we wouldnt
have enough [clothes and toys],
but we would be able to do a single pair of pants, a sweatshirt and
a single toy, remembered Moore.

HEALTH
A team of experts to help with healing wounds

By CYNTHIA
HOCHSWENDER
There have been significant
changes at Sharon Hospital in the
past year or two but one department that has remained stable
and productive is the wound
care center.
Inaugurated in October 2011,
the center has treated about
890 patients with wounds that
werent healing. Program Director (and registered nurse) Renee
Maus said that about 96 percent
of the wounds treated at the center are healed with interventions
that range from simple consultations to specialized synthetic
skin substitutes or the use of the
centers two hyperbaric oxygen
chambers.
Those are the most extreme
cases, explained the centers medical director, Dr. Douglas Finch.
The hyperbaric chamber is
the most advanced treatment
we have, he said, adding that it
is in use every day of the week.
Its used primarily with patients
who havent healed after 30 days
or more of standard wound care.
Not all wounds respond to the
hyperbaric treatment, cautioned
Dr. John Zboinski (known at the
wound care center as Dr. Z). A
podiatric specialist, his particular
area of expertise is helping patients who suffer from diabetes.
Many diabetics are prone to
foot wounds, because they have
vascular problems and neuropathy, Dr. Zboinski said. Neuropathy, he explained, is a loss of
sensation due to diabetes.
The end result of these wounds
for many diabetics is amputation.
Our goal is limb salvage,
Zboinski said.
The hyperbaric chamber can
help.
With hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the patient is in a pressurized
chamber breathing in air with a
high concentration of oxygen,
Maus said.
The pressure in the chamber

forces the oxygen into the tissues
at a higher concentration, Finch
added.
Many other protocols are tried
before the hyperbaric chamber is
called into use, the medical team
explained. Sometimes all it takes
is a simple consultation with a
patient about his or her lifestyle.
We do a full assessment on
each patient, Maus said. We look
at circulation, sensation, nutrition
and vascular status.
We make sure theyre seeing
their primary care doctor and
trying to control their diabetes,
Zboinski said. We check their
diet and make sure theyre eating
the right foods. We check their
prosthetics, if they have them,
to be sure they fit correctly. We
check their shoes, too, to make
sure they fit well. If there is a
wound, its important to have
shoes that fit properly so the
pressure on the wound can be
offloaded.
If they have an infection, I
get involved, to make sure they
are getting the right treatment,
said Finch, who is an infectious
disease specialist.
Its an interdisciplinary approach, said Maus. It includes
podiatry, surgery, infectious disease and nutrition.
If it sounds like there is a heavy
emphasis on aiding patients who
are diabetic, thats because there
is.
Theres a lot of diabetes in the
general population, and so there is
also a lot of it here in the Tri-state
region, Finch said.
I was one of the people who
really pushed for us to have a
wound care center here, because
there is so much diabetes, and because I was seeing so many patients with wounds that werent
healing, Maus said.
There was no expert structured approach to follow-up after
someone was discharged from the
hospital, Finch added.
And then theyd end up back
at the hospital with another infection, and sometimes there would

end up being an amputation,
Maus said.
The elderly are another highrisk group for wounds.
There are a lot of people with
venous stasis ulcers, Maus said.
Those are caused by poor circulation and its a problem many of
our older patients have.
Of the patients they see, Maus
estimated that 40 percent are diabetics (from teens to the elderly)
and about 60 percent have venous
stasis ulcers.
Some patients come to the
center because they are referred
by their primary care doctors
(some patients are also referred
from the wound centers in Torrington and Danbury, because
Sharons outcomes are so good,
the team said).
Many patients come in on
their own, to ask about a wound
or a skin condition.
Sometimes it turns out to be
a rash, Finch said. Weve also
identified some skin cancers.
People can call us and we can
screen them on the phone, Maus
said. If were not the right place,
we can refer them to the right
provider.
To contact the wound center,
call 860-364-4515 or go to the
Sharon Hospital website at www.

OBITUARY
MILLERTON IN BRIEF
Holiday party
Polly Jo Masters
ANCRAMDALE We mourn
the passing of Polly Jo Masters
of Ancramdale, who died peacefully at home on Dec. 4, 2015,
surrounded by her children, at
the age of 91. The family thanks
the community of caregivers and
friends who encircled her with
love, companionship, laughter
and music since 2008: Diane F.,
Keavy B., Joni F., Elizabeth M.,
Gaye P., Peggy O., Lolly S., Anne
C., Julia H., Jackie H., Mandy L.,
Mary S., Carol P., Brian C., Becky
R., David H., Harold H., Terry B,
and Gregg B.
Born in Beckley, W. Va., on
March 14, 1924, she was the
daughter of Ef e Lajo Stalnaker
and Dr. John H. McCulloch.
After graduating from the
University of Kentucky, fate
ushered her through the doors
of Beckleys WJLS radio station
in 1947 where, as Side-Saddle
Sue, she hosted a weekly radio
program. She played banjo and
ukulele, singing cowboy music,
reading local news and engaging
in easy humor.
A year or so later she departed for New York City, where
she pursued a career in musical
theater. She sang cabaret, stagemanaged many productions in-
cluding Oh, Captain!, and was a

principal in the summer traveling
company of Brigadoon.
In 1951, she and a business partner, the director George Quick,
renovated several old stables and
barns on the Vanderbilt Estate in
Hyde Park, N.Y., establishing the
Hyde Park Playhouse. While in
Hyde Park she also assisted the
late Eleanor Roosevelt with the
New York State Literacy Project.
When theatrical success required
a press agent, she and Quick hired
a young writer, Hilary Masters.
Polly and Hilary fell in love, married and ran the Playhouse for the
next seven years.
In 1960 they sold the Playhouse and moved to their new
home on Woods Drive in Ancramdale. From the mid-1960s
she was very active in her community. She volunteered for the
American Cancer Society, worked
with the local PTA and was a
friendly and welcoming face at
the polls during election time.
In 1968 she ran successfully
for president of the Pine Plains
Board of Education, becoming
the rst woman in local history
to hold that honor. She held that
post until 1975 and was, among
many other things, instrumental
in the conception and building

of the Stissing Mountain JuniorSenior High School, also the rst
of its kind in the region.
From 1979 until the mid-1990s
she contributed a regular column
for a local newspaper, the Roe-Jan
Independent, under the heading,
One Side to Everything. She
wrote about politics, local and
national education, television,
rural homeownership, the origins of linguistic memory and the
diminutive interior dimensions
of the original Ancramdale Post
Of ce.
She was predeceased by her
brother, John H. McCulloch Jr.;
her parents; and her former husband, Hilary Masters, whom she
divorced in 1985.
She is survived by her sisterin-law, Carolyn McCulloch of
Beckley; her three children, Joellen Masters of Lexington, Mass.,
Catherine Masters of Deer Isle,

Maine, John D.C. Masters of
Paros, Greece; and a grandchild,
Kaolin R.E. Pitcher of Portland,
Maine.
She was a mother, a grandmother, a prescient community
leader, a lover of Broadway musicals and English mysteries, a
fount of knowledge and a source
of no-nonsense unending love
and support to all. She covered
the ground she walked on. The
family will announce a memorial
gathering at a later date.
In lieu of owers, memorial
donations may be made to the
Polly Masters Educational Fund
for Young Women at Pine Plains
Stissing Mountain High School.
Arrangements are under the
direction of the Peck and Peck
Funeral Home in Copake, N.Y. To

In the Midst of Life

We Are in Art
I
Danielle Mailer with her mural of a horse on the wall of a brick building on Maiden Street in
Torrington.
t just seemed to appear one

day, a very large mural of a
crow and a swanning figure
of a woman on one of the red
painted bay doors in Lakevilles old firehouse. Where did
that come from? Why is it
there? And, most urgently, who
made it?
It is clearly and distinctly
the work of Danielle Mailer,
with its fanciful scrolls and minuscule details, and the feeling
of figures caught in a spirited
and benign wind.
Mailer painted the mural two years ago and it has
hung for a time on a wall in
the Roger Smith Hotel in New
York City. It was quite a hit, she
says, with people taking selfies
of it, sending her the images
now and then.
But cities are dynamic places and beautiful things make
room for other beautiful things
and, recently, the hotel needed
to take down that wall. So
Mailer, with her husband Peter
McEachern, piled into their
1998 black rusty Mazda pickup
truck and drove to New York
to bring the image, broken
down to its seven pieces, back
to home territory. Wondering what she would do with it,
Mailer called Susan and Tino
Galluzzo, owners of The White
Gallery in Lakeville.
If you want something
done, these are the people to
call, Mailer told me. And thats
how the mural landed, at least
for now, on the old firehouse
door in the middle of Lakeville.
This is public art: images,
figures, shapes on city streets,
like Mailers Mountain Lion
above the Scoville Library
steps in Salisbury and the
horse on Maiden Street in Tor-
rington. It is a beautiful horse,

pinned to a brick wall with
great curls of a mane, limbs
decorated with petals and
winged creatures grasshoppers, butterflies, dragonflies,
hovering, magical.
Its transformative, Mailer
says of art in public places
on steps, on walls, on buildings. I am putting out small
messages of optimism. I try to
shift the cosmos a bit.
And she does. Its a thrill to
see something beautiful and
inventive in a place where
everyone walks and drives
and lives their ordinary lives.
It stops us in our tracks. It
inspires a moment of surprise
and joy.
Now, Mailer is at work on a
new and gargantuan project.
With the aid of people like
Amy Wynn of the Northwest
Connecticut Arts Council, numerous Torrington officials including the mayor and the city
planner, State Representative
Roberta Willis, many financial
contributors, enthusiastic supporters and, of course, a cadre
of devoted painters, young
and not so young, Mailer is
making a spectacular mural to
run 200 feet along the exterior
back wall of Staples overlooking Franklin Street, right in the
middle of downtown Torrington. For the moment, its
brilliant pink and yellow and
marine blue sections of dibond
trout are spread like puzzle
pieces on the floor in donated
space opposite the Warner

A Christmas Carol
A Familiar and Beautiful

Holiday Tale of Redemption
eres a take on Charles

Dickenss A Christmas
Carol that an actor
like John Cleese could own
comfortably. Even admirably.
Half Moon Theater, performing
this holiday standard at the
Culinary Institute of Americas
theater in the Marriott Pavilion, gives this tale, in a tightened adaptation by Patrick
Barlow, a kind of zany snap.
And Darrell James, whose
Ebenezer Scrooge projects a
lean and angry look, tosses in
an occasional and unexpected
shot of antic glee.
The story is unaltered, of
course: a look at the indifference, even the hostility
that 19th-century haves had
toward the have-nots around
them. When women seeking charity for the poor visit
Scrooge, they are rebuffed. I
hate Christmas, Scrooge says,
many times. He just loathes
it, except for the profits he
makes when people borrow to
finance the season. And then
he jacks up the rate of interest
and diminishes the time for
repayment.
He is a bitter fellow, but
then Belle (Maria Silverman),
his fiance, had left him years
earlier, probably because he
was more interested in finance
than love. Scrooge is all alone
in the world with his trunkful
of gold coins.
The first act, though beautiful to look at, has a kind
of one-note quality: all of it
rather forced. But thats the
nature of any such tale bent on
revelation and reform. Dickens
was appalled by the poverty
he suffered in his youth and

the poverty of others in 19thcentury London. So instead of
writing pamphlets, he wrote
A Christmas Carol, listing the
plight of the impoverished, the
disdain of the privileged and
the consequences of letting
these inequities continue. It is,
after all, a mans soul at stake,
he is telling us.
So Scrooge rejects invitations to holiday feasts and
rails at his clerk Bob Cratchit
(Wayne Pyle), grudgingly paying him for the day he spends
with his family on Christmas
instead of at work.
The story is a familiar one,
with Scrooge receiving ghostly
visits from his old partner,
Marley, warning him to reform.
Although Michael Schirallis
direction is obvious, at times,
and things drag a bit, the acting

of Half Moon players is lovely,
with Shona Tucker, Ryan Walter, Pyle and Silverman playing everyone but Scrooge, are
delightful. Oliver Renfroe Katz,
stumbling in on his stump of
a crutch makes an appealing
Tiny Tim, and the costumes, set
and lighting are gorgeous. Most
particularly fine is Alex Levys
playing the violin. It was expert
and affecting.
A Christmas Carol by
Charles Dickens, in an adaptation by Patrick Barlow, runs at
the Culinary Institute of Americas Marriott Pavilion in Hyde
Park, NY, through Dec. 19. It is
a beautiful theater in one of the
CIAs many beautiful buildings.

A Day in the Studio of Peter

Woytuk with Friends
eter Woytuk's studio in

Kent, CT, may remind
you of an auto repair
garage. Every surface and shelf
is chock-a-block with bronze
or iron fruits, birds, tiny animals. Three laptops lie open
on a dusty table. The space,
just behind the Kent firehouse,
is huge, with a warehouse
door on one side that opens
to a grass and dirt field big
enough for bronze bulls to
come and go, but not enormous elephants.
Woytuk, of course, is the
most famous sculptor from
the Northwest Corner. In fact,
many consider him the finest
sculptor of animals in the
world. His robust bulls have
for years welcomed students
and parents to The Hotchkiss
School campus, while his lifesize elephants have enlivened
Columbus Circle in New York
City. Woytuk makes smaller
pieces, too. In his last show in

Kent, a group of small, heavy,
resting bulls created from
brown and green translucent
glass were showstoppers.
Casting large pieces requires expert foundries with
unusual capabilities. Woytuk
years ago found companies in
China and East Asia that could
meet his requirements, so he
moved to Thailand, where he
and his wife built a large compound north of Bangkok. He
spends about 10 months a year
there, receiving commissions
he has a lengthy backlog
and designing pieces on his
computers.
Now Woytuk is opening his
Kent studio to the public for
the first time. Working with
Judith Singelis of Argazzi Art
in Lakeville, CT, who now
represents him along with his
major gallery in Santa Fe, NM,
Woytuk has spruced up his

for the holidays through December 15th!
space, though not too much,

and painted a wooden partition wall white to show work
from six other artists. Two are
friends of his, four are Argazzi
artists.
Woytuk intends to show a
variety of new work, some created within the last week. (Be
sure to look for the delightful
salt and pepper shakers made
from small birds.) He will
explain how he works if asked,
but he is self-effacing. Dressed
in work clothes and a close-fitting knit cap last week, he was
open to questions, anxious to
show photos of his compound
in Thailand and his three
beautiful daughters. His wife,
equally beautiful, has flown in
from Bangkok for the event.
Woytuk has asked his
friend, Ken Daniels, to show
some drawings. He has invited
Phil Grausman, too, the maker
of large and small sculpture
portraits in white, stripped of
detail to reveal the structure of
faces.
Singelis will have the lovely
pictures of abandoned structures by Victor Mirabelli, the
vertical, abstract nature paintings of Michael Kessler, the
ceramic and bronze vessels of
Ann Mallory and the drawings
and paintings of Liz Dexheimer, whose pictures of nature
straddle abstract art and
impressionism. (I hope one of
her gorgeous, watery paintings
of koi will be there.)
Peter Woytuk's studio will
be open Saturday, Dec. 12,
from 3:30 until at least 7 p.m.
There will be music, food and
wine. The studio is located at
28 Maple St., behind the Kent
firehouse, just east of Rte. 7.

A Stunning View of Earth

And What Commerce Has Done
auru is an island made

up of palm trees and
bird droppings. Bird
droppings, as it happens, turn
into phosphate, and mining
this phosphate has made the
population of the 8.5-squaremile island nation in the South
Pacific among the richest in the
world. Of course mining this
rock of phosphate has leveled
the island, the environment
is in tatters, the revenue has
stalled and the population
is looking to Australia as sea
levels rise. This disaster made
Nauru a perfect subject for artist Jeremy Starns Mirrors in the
Sky, a beautiful and provocative
exhibit at Noelke Gallery on
Water Street in Torrington, CT.
The United States Geological
Survey, for which Starns father
works, makes these satellite
images of heat and light and
color available, without cost,
to anyone who can download
them on a computer. So Starn,
24, a fellow deeply interested in
how globalization has affected
life on Earth, has collected
thousands of them and, over

the last three years, he has been
layering them in Photoshop
into sometimes gorgeous and
always startling and abstract
images.
Among them, the layered
images of Nauru is the most
straightforward: a minuscule
rock in a vast expanse of blue
South Pacific water viewed
through tufts of cloud. Then
you learn, because Starn will
tell you, that nothing grows
there anymore, save a ring of
palm trees at waters edge,
and that almost all the food
is imported and processed,
contributing to the populations
startling obesity. Oh, and one
more disaster. Because foreign
corporations can no longer dig
phosphates out of Nauru, the
unemployment rate is amongst
the highest in the world.
You are looking at humanitys imprint, here, Starn says of
this image. You are looking at
its mark on the planet.
The marks are disturbing,
such as his view of Al-Jouf
Province in the Kingdom of

Saudi Arabia. This is about the
most important agricultural
area in the country, producing olives, dates, wheat and
other fruits and vegetables.
This sprawl of green and umber
hills is defaced by hundreds of
crowded-together brown spots,
pivotal irrigation wells sucking
up the underlying aquifer that
may run dry if the demands of
industrial agriculture are not
reduced.
And then there is the Kokaral Dam in Kazakhstan, built
to keep the Aral Sea from disappearing from the planet. Starn
says this lake figured, at one
time, the fourth largest in the
world was siphoned off to
fuel irrigation projects in the
1950s. The dam, built in 2005,
protected a small northern portion of the lake. Still, Uzbekistan is draining a river feeding
what remains of the Aral Sea to

aid its global cotton industry.
Starns image, collected from
satellite views and refined in
Photoshop, is a stunning look
at arid and desolated patches
of earth pressed against a small,
blue sea.
In all, Starn is exhibiting
images collected from satellite
views of varied spots including
the Korean Demilitarized Zone,
The Las Vegas Valley in Nevada,

New Orleans, LA, the Crimea
and one of Brazilian deforestarion.
All of them beautiful. And
sobering.

Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict
An Unerring Eye for Art

And a Complex Life
his documentary film,

Peggy Guggenheim:
Art Addict, by Lisa Immordino Vreeland, examines
the life of art patron, gallery
owner and all-American screwball Peggy Guggenheim.
The film follows her life
chronologically, from Guggenheims upbringing (her father
went down on the Titanic)
to her adolescent (and subsequent) rebelliousness and
unassailable ability as a spotter
of artistic talent.
The film makes good use of
audio tapes of interviews toward the end of Guggenheims
life by her biographer, Jacqueline Weld.
The tapes, made in 1979,
two years before Guggenheims
death, have the woman speaking
bluntly about her life lovers
(many of them famous), the tragedies associated with her family,
seven abortions, the soaring
price of art and why she helped
Jackson Pollock buy a house.
Her recollections are all

delivered in the speaking style
known as Long Island Lockjaw, in which the speaker tries
to move the lips, tongue and
jaw as little as possible.
Weld, who appears on camera, reveals that the speaking
style was learned at a Manhattan girls school that the young
Peggy and all the other daughters of wealthy Jewish families
attended.
A good cache of audio tapes
doesnt help with the visual side
of a documentary, so Vreeland
combines period photographs,
clips of avant-garde filmmaking (including Maya Deren
and Man Ray), and on-camera
interviews with assorted art
experts.
And she provides the audience with what amounts to a
crash course in 20th-century
art, via stills of the artworks
and the name of the artist ( for
rubes like me, who can tell a
Dali from a Picasso as long as
the light is good).

Guggenheim herself comes
across as an interesting and
very flawed character: narcissistic, pretentious, an indifferent mother.
But she had an uncanny
knack for finding the right art
and exhibiting it at the right
time and the wherewithal to
make things happen.
So Art Addict is a worthwhile film even for someone
who isnt especially interested
in art. Its a look back at a time
when it was possible to cause
a scandal by carrying on with
a married man or showing a
painter like Pollock.
Since we have no taboos left,
except perhaps cannibalism,
Guggenheims extravagances
and excesses seem positively
quaint. Charming, even.
Peggy Guggenheim, Art
Addict is playing at The Moviehouse in Millerton, NY. This film
is not rated.
