In 2020 there were 21 overdose deaths, in 2021, 25 deaths and in 2022, 30 Revere residents died from overdoses. The statistics from last year aren't available yet but Buck said police data showed 123 overdoses, 17 of which were fatal. Massachusetts brought a series of lawsuits against opioid manufacturers and distributors for deceptive business practices and advertising that failed to inform the public of the risks of opioid use. Companies, such as Johnson, CVS, Walmart and Walgreen’s were held accountable for fueling the opioid epidemic. The lawsuits ended in settlements expected to bring about $1 billion to Massachusetts over the next 18 years. The state will retain 60 percent of the settlement funds for its Opioid Recovery and Remediation Fund. The remaining 40 percent of the settlement funds will be divided among the state's HEALTH | SEE Page 21 On The Bunny Trail Shown from left to right are State Representative Sean Garballey, Ward 4 Councillor Paul Argenzio, State Representative Jessica Giannino, honoree Herby Jean-Baptiste, Herby’s wife and Mayor Patrick Keefe.

At the heart of this quest is veteran coach Lianne O’Hara Mimmo, who carries over two decades of teaching and coaching wisdom onto the court. With a track record that speaks volumes – capturing their fi rst Greater Boston League (GBL) title just last season – the Patriots have set the bar high for what promises to be a thrilling journey. O’Hara Mimmo, who sparked life into the boys program four years ago, has shaped a team known not just for its on-court prowess but for its off-court character. This season, alongside a roster brimming with potential, she faces the unique challenge of blending seasoned leaders with young talent hungry to make their mark. As the Patriots braced for their season opener this week against Lynn English, we sat down with Coach O’Hara Mimmo to delve into the team’s preparation, highlight the stars of the squad and explore the goals that will defi ne their 2024 campaign. Advocate: Years coaching for you in this position/your coaching background: O’Hara Mimmo: I taught in Revere for 21 years and have been coaching almost all of them. I coached the girls program for six years and began another degree and didn’t think I would have the time to do both. I am trying to do both this boys season. I started the boys program four years ago. Last year, in our third year, we were able to capture the fi rst GBL league title. Advocate: What are your team’s main goals for this upcoming season? O’Hara Mimmo: Our main goal is to improve every day; ultimately, they’d like to win another GBL title, but know we have some tough competition. Advocate: Can you share some highlights or key achievements from the last season? O’Hara Mimmo: Going 16-4 in the regular season, winning the GBL title, having the GBL MVP and three league all-stars. Advocate: How has the team prepared in the off season to tackle the challenges of the new season? O’Hara Mimmo: We played fall ball at O’Bryant High School. We had weekly open gyms; many played club volleyball during the winter season. Advocate: How many players on the fi nal rosters for all levels? O’Hara Mimmo: Varsity has 10 with three players that will swing to play JV games; 10 on JV and six on the freshman team. Advocate: Who are some players to watch this season, and what makes them stand out? O’Hara Mimmo: Our returning senior captain Ruben Rodriguez will be a key player in our system this year. He has been playing since his freshman year of high school and has competed in two seasons of club volleyball. He excels at the outside hitter position and his defense is one of the best on the team. Kawan Dias and Lucas JimiLIANNE O’HARA MIMMO RHS Volleyball Coach nez are junior front-row attackers, and this will be their second season on the varsity team. We will be relying on their blocking and spiking skills as the season continues. We have a large class of sophomores that will play an integral role. Our two setters Larry Claudio and Isaac Portillo are tasked with running our off ense this season as well as contributing defensively as well. Chris Choc Chavez is a returning defensive specialist, and Juan Perez Aristizabal is developing as an outside attacker as well. Advocate: Tell me about the captains and what they bring. O’Hara Mimmo: Ruben Rodriguez is the solo captain right now. He is knowledgeable, vocal and a driving force in the success of our program in three short years. Four other athletes are completing “The Team Captain’s Leadership Manual†and will assist Ruben with the leadership task. Advocate: Are there any promising newcomers on the team that you believe will make a signifi cant impact? O’Hara Mimmo: We have a couple of freshmen who will practice with varsity but will play on game day with the JV squad. They are Joao Almeida and Omar Solano Garcia. Both have great potential and volleyball instincts. Advocate: How do you foster leadership and teamwork among the players, especially with the mix of veterans and new talent? O’Hara Mimmo: My captains must read “The Team Captain’s Leadership Manual†by Jeff Janssen. They must also conduct interviews focused on character, composure, confidence and commitment. During the summer and preseason, our athletes are given the opportunity to lead open gym and drills during the season. I expect my captains to be extensions of me on the court, so during each huddle they should be communicating with the team about things to fi x, strategy and giving energy and spirit. Advocate: What would you say is your team’s greatest strength and biggest challenge this season? O’Hara Mimmo: Greatest strength would be commitment and chemistry. Biggest challenge is that we are undersized. Advocate: How do you plan to address any identified weaknesses or challenges? O’Hara Mimmo: We have been working on diff erent strategies to score and being better defensively. If we can improve our serving consistency and speed, other teams would struggle to hang with us. Advocate: Are there any teams in the league that you see as your main rivals? Who looks good in the league? O’Hara Mimmo: We love playing with and competing against Malden. Our boys often show up to each other’s open gyms, and the compete level is high; they have a great team and program. Advocate: What do you enjoy most about coaching this team? O’Hara Mimmo: This group of boys are hardworking, have high energy and love to play volleyball. The team chemistry is good and improving every day.

The Saugus native fi rst led Malden Catholic to its fi rst Division 1 Super 8 state championship as its captain in 2011, when they defeated St. John’s Prep in overtime at the TD Garden. Six years later, he captained Union College to the NCAA Division 1 title, and last year he won his fi rst pro championship with the AHL’s (American Hockey League) Hershey Bears, the Washington Capitals minor league affi liate. The Bears are now on pace to repeat as Calder Cup champs with Mike still in charge as a team captain on the ice. Will the Stanley Cup be in his future? Quite possibly, but let him tell his story. In 59 games, Vecchione, who plays leftwing, has 15 goals and 16 assists. As a team, Hershey has the best overall record by far to date in the entire league at 47-12-5. The Providence Bruins are second to the Bears in the Atlantic Division – fourth in the entire league – with a 38-19-7 record. The Coachella Valley (Southern California) Firebirds, out of the Pacifi c Division, has the second-best record in the league at 40-14-9. The Central Division Milwaukee Admirals ranks third in the league with a 42-201 mark. The regular season concludes on April 21. Vecchione expects to win another Calder Cup this year after stints in the Philadelphia Flyers, St. Louis Blues and Colorado Avalanche organizations. He signed on with the Bears several years ago, because of the club’s winning tradition. “One of the things that drove me to sign with the Hershey Bears a few years ago was their will to win every year,†Vecchione said. “There’s never really a rebuild in Hershey. We hold ourselves to a certain standard, and so does the town. It seems like every single season they build a team that can win the Calder Cup, and that’s what you want as a player. “After winning last season, we knew we were going to lose some guys to other teams, as well as the European leagues so the quest to repeat started well before the season,†he added. “Although we lost a handful of key contributors, we were able to replace them with the same caliber of player, and once the season got going, we immediately had chemistry and picked up right where we left off . We tried not to look too far ahead. We stayed pretty level-headed throughout the entire season. We just took it one game at a time, and strived to achieve certain milestones to keep us motivated. We put ourselves in an incredible position to clinch home ice throughout the playoff s, which we didn’t have last season. Our goal right now is to fi nish the regular season on a high note, playing playoff -style hockey with high intensity to lock-in the top overall seed.†Despite winning a state high school title and a collegiate championship on the highest of levels, Vecchione considers last year’s conquest the hardest of the three. “Winning the Calder Cup was one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through in my career,†the Saugus native said. “When it comes to the Super 8 or the national collegiate championship, it’s a one game, winner-take-all scenario. To put it into perspective, I played more games last year in the Calder Cup playoff s than I did in the Super 8 and NCAA tournament combined. The grind of playing every other night, series after series, with long travel times between sites was very diffi cult, but the reward in the end was well worth it.†Mike Vecchione of Saugus has won a state high school hockey championship with Malden Catholic in 2011 and a NCAA Division 1 National Championship title with Union College in 2017, before winning the Calder Cup with the AHL’s Hershey Bears last year. The Saugus native was a captain of each one of these squads. He’s now hoping to win another Calder Cup sometime in June. (Courtesy photo / Hershey Bears) But then came Game 7 of the Mike Vecchione of Saugus keeps his head up as he skates up ice for the Hershey Bears during a game this year. (Courtesy photo / Hershey Bears) AHL Finals against the Firebirds, and what led to Vecchione’s most memorable goal ever. “Everyone was so tense. It seemed like we were approaching a second overtime, and then it happened and a wave of adrenaline hit me,†he said. “It’s still hard to describe the feeling of scoring the winning goal in overtime in Game 7 to clinch the Calder Cup. The emotions were so overwhelming, but everything I had gone through in my career helped me get through that moment.†But Mike doesn’t take any of these championships for granted. “It truly is a unique experience, and I’ve been extremely fortunate to have won at each level,†he said. “It really takes a full team to win a championship, and I thank all my teammates over the years for giving it everything they had. I remember being most nervous in the Super 8 game at the TD Garden. It was my last game as a high school hockey player. After three years of coming so close and failing, doubt started to creep in. I felt like there was such a weight on my shoulders being the captain, and not getting it done would be devastating. You just have to bury those doubts and give it everything you have. Playing in that type of situation as a kid prepares you for when the stage gets a little bigger and the lights shine a little brighter. By the time I got to the NCAA Division 1 national champiMike Vecchione of Saugus celebrates after scoring a goal for the AHL’s Hershey Bears during a game this year. Vecchione helped lead the Bears to the Calder Cup championship as an assistant captain last year, and he now has his teammates currently on top in the regular season. The playoff s will begin after April 21. (Courtesy photo / Hershey Bears) onship game, I was well-prepared mentally and physically to go out and play without the weight of a title on the line. You just have to put the distractions aside and focus on the task at hand. “When we got blown out in Games 1 and 2 of last year’s fi - nals, that doubt started to creep in again. But I was given great advice from former Bears legend Chris Bourque. He reached out to me and said: ‘You are never running away with it and you’re never out of it. Take control of the series.’ We did just that to win all three games at home in dramatic fashion. When it got to Game 7 in Coachella, it felt just like another game to me. I remembered being in this situation before as a high school and college player. It was another one game, winner-takeall scenario, and so I was prepared to embrace the moment. You never want to take these moments for granted, because they don’t come around that often, but when you win that moment lasts a lifetime.†But naturally, aside from winning another Calder Cup this year, he’d love to play in the NHL (National Hockey League) someday to have an opportunity to win the Stanley Cup. “My goal has always been to play in the NHL and win a Stanley Cup,†Vecchione said. “It would be quite a remarkable feat to add that to my collection. I’m still hopeful it can be done, even though the door seems to be closing. I can only control what I do on the ice. I can’t control call-ups. The only thing I can do is to continue to play to the best of my ability, and if the time comes, I know I will be ready.†Vecchione, who just turned 31 on Feb. 25, knows he’s one of the oldest players on the Hershey roster. “It really is crazy how fast time fl ies,†he said. “I’m not quite the oldest on the roster…yet. There are several other players on our team older than me, but I understand I’m 10 years older than our youngest guy, and I’m on the back nine of my career. I’ve been a captain on many teams, and my responsibility as a leader hasn’t changed throughout my career. I’ve always been a leader whose actions speak louder than my words. Whether it’s in a practice or a game, I want to go out and execute at a high level. “When it comes to mentoring, I’m always open to help out younger guys in any way I can. They have scouts, developmental guys and coaches constantly in their ears telling them what they need to do, so it can get stressful for them. Although we are competing for jobs on the NHL Capitals, we are also teammates competing to win a Calder Cup together. It’s a weird dynamic to think about, but if a guy is struggling with something I’m always here to help him out. When I was a rookie, I sat around with the veterans, picked their brains and worked with them after practice to improve little aspects of my HOCKEY | SEE Page 19 ׉ Ú7cassandra://zKA7odTRbTpZKD5WtaUA_xrC5AgVyu5G2o7rFYs4kPAÍ(ÐÍ`Ì°Í×fó®R•AE°B×fó®R•AE°AÍ P̀בC’טšÍ(Í€u׉œ“׉ Ú7cassandra://Zc5D-3wdI8XHftNrPlEdLw2fnoHy6A5ASSWxGDRdFDQÎòMÍ`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://1PkNMavWT6NNed_RUNsaSGdwiuoizUyJ7wL5IBobEXcÍ‹ˆÍ`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://QDsk9OUQGJ8v_l5l5t8YFSpK5x5xn7U-DCbN2KiSE38Í/ÕÍ`Ì°Í×fù®R•AE°€×˜šÍ(Í(Í€u׉œ“׉ Ú7cassandra://x40gguzPPEfrfFC-hMyxXqBmdRfWeUFJS9Qv9l0LJvkÎ:ZÍ`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://-7-wJxawg0Y3TbbbQqvgeS6E937jTsdvdUyYvS0wJzcÍ™`Í`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://Xd63SZRAkfF-ati6IDVBjZjKacAE-kmWwqgilFnGwP4Í.·Í`Ì°Í×fù®R•AE°•× ×fù®R•AE°ˆÍƒÍ̺9×H¾http://www.bbb.org/scamtracker× × Ј× ×fù®R•AE°‡Í PÍÓ99×H®http://BBB.org× × Ј× ×fù®R•AE°†Í šÍ¾z9×H®https://www.bb× × Ј× ×fù®R•AE°…ÍÓÍ©ÍA9×H¸https://www.bbb.org/near× × Ј× ×fù®R•AE°„̓ÍìB9×H®http://BBB.org× × Ј׉EÚ»Page 16 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 2024 Patriots Boys Volleyball shutout Lynn English, 3-0 Christopher Choc Chavez serving for Revere during their match with Lynn English Wednesday.

Our goal is that by the end of this season, not only do these girls have teammates but also have forever friendships,†Rotger said. “I love the enthusiasm these girls bring to the game of lacrosse,†Rotger added. “They come to practice each day and give it their all. That’s all you can ask for as a coach.†Ultimately, Rotger wants to bring back some popularity for girls lacrosse to the city of Revere. “We hope that young girls see how fun lacrosse is and are willing to give it a shot,†Rotger said. “Being a part of a team is such a crucial part of life, and the ability to build lifelong relationships goes a long way.†We follow Social Distancing Guidelines!

There were no roll calls in the House last week. DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES (S 2713) Senate 39-0, approved and sent to the House a bill that would make some changes in the current state laws about debt collection practices. The measure includes reducing from 12 percent to 3 percent the maximum interest rate that can be charged for judgments on consumer debt; increasing from $750 per week to $975 per week the amount of a person’s wages that is protected from garnishment because of a debt; reducing from six years to fi ve years, the time in which a company can bring suit to collect a consumer debt; and ensuring that no one is imprisoned for failure to pay a consumer debt. “In Massachusetts, no family should have to choose between putting food on the table or making a minimum payment on a ballooning debt,†said Sen. Paul Feeney (D-Foxborough), Senate Chair of the Committee on Financial Services. “Debt collection practices can, at times, be predatory, unlawful and designed to squeeze every dime out of middle-class and lowincome families, especially with the added burden of accumulating interest and additional fees that are designed to push families over a fi nancial cliff . The [legislation] will not eliminate debt or an obligation to pay, but it will add needed guardrails to protect hard-working families from financial ruin, give a lifeline to those caught in a debt spiral and help deliver hope to those in a vicious cycle.†“This bill aims to implement stricter regulations on debt collectors in order to prevent fi nancial mistreatment of Massachusetts residents,†said chief sponsor Sen. Jamie Eldridge (D-Marlborough). “It seeks to safeguard consumers’ economic security during debt repayment, prohibit excessively high interest rates and eliminate the possibility of consumers being sent to ‘debtor’s prison’ when facing legal action.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes SAFETY FOR FIREFIGHTERS (S 2712) Senate 40-0, approved and sent to the House legislation that would create a public database of violations of the state’s fi re prevention laws and a public notifi cation system to alert workers of violations. The measure is designed to boost safety for fi refi ghters and people conducting “hot work†including welding, plasma cutting and spark-producing construction. The proposed law has been ten years in the making and was fi rst prompted by the March 2014 deaths of firefighters Edward Walsh and Michael Kennedy who perished while fi ghting a fi re that was caused by welders, working without a city permit, on a building next door to the brownstone in which they died. “This legislation represents historic regulatory reforms that the Walsh-Kennedy Commission helped institute across the hot works and welding industry in Massachusetts,†said chief sponsor Sen. Nick Collins (D-Boston). “Passing this legislation will ensure that the critical reforms, training, oversight and accountability needed to prevent tragedies like the Back Bay fi re, will be the law of the land. We do this in honor of Boston Fire Lieutenant Edward Walsh and Firefi ghter Michael Kennedy so that their sacrifi ces are not in vain.†“The heartbreaking loss of life in the 2014 Back Bay fi re is a constant reminder of the importance of fi refi ghter safety,†said Sen. Walter Timilty (D-Milton), Senate Chair of the Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security. “I am honored to have shepherded this crucial bill through the committee. Today, the Senate’s action represents an important step forward in ensuring that our remarkable firefighters have the resources that they need to keep themselves safe and protect our communities.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL HOUSE APPROVES SEVERAL BILLS – The House gave initial approval to several bills last week including: CITY AND TOWN ASSESSORS (H 2112) – Amends current law which allows municipalities to give stipends to assessors who receive their Certified Assessment Evaluator certificate from the International Association of Assessing Offi cers, or their Certifi ed Massachusetts Assessor certifi cate from the Massachusetts Association of Assessing Offi cers, Inc. The bill increases the stipend municipalities may award for these certifi cates from $3,000 to $5,000 for full-time assessors and also adds two new certifi cates which would result in the stipend. “Assessors play a vital role in the fi nancial issues of every city and town in the commonwealth,†said sponsor Rep. Tom Stanley (D-Waltham). “This legislation improves the profession, enhances the assessor’s skillset and improves taxpayer effi ciency and services to property owners.†FREE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION FOR VETERANS WHO ARE GOING TO MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS (H 3527) - Provides free transportation on the MBTA system for veterans who travel to or from a Veterans Administration hospital for medical care. The veteran must present proof of a medical appointment on the date of travel in the form of a notice from the Veterans Administration indicating the veteran’s name and the date and the location of the appointment. “I have heard from a number of veterans who say it can be a challenge to get transportation to their medical appointments,†said sponsor Rep. Jerry Parisella (D-Beverly). “This bill would cover the cost of public transit for those seeking care at the Veterans Administration and help reduce one of the barriers, the cost of transportation, for those who have served our country with honor.†ALLOW YOUNGER YOUTH SOCCER REFEREES (H 1852) - Would allow minors who are 12- and 13-years-old to referee youth soccer games for matches in which the age bracket of the players is younger than the 12- or 13-yearold referee. Other provisions require the referee’s parents or guardians to provide the employer with a written consent form; require the employer to provide the parent or guardian with written policies describing the responsibilities of a referee and provide the minor with training; and mandating that an adult representing the employer is on the premise during the match. “This legislation would benefit both the youths in question and their communities as these programs are extended,†said cosponsor Rep. Kathy LaNatra (DKingston). ALLOW SOME 17-YEAR OLDS TO VOTE IN PRIMARIES (H 705) – Would allow voters who will turn 18 and be eligible to vote in a November general election to also vote in the preceding primary election even though they will only be 17 at the time of the primary election. Supporters said that allowing 17-year-olds olds to have a voice would establish a foundation for lifelong engagement in the democratic process and bolster civic engagement of these youths. Rep. Joan Meschino (D-Hull) fi rst sponsored the bill in 2020 at the request of then-16-year-old Hingham High School student Samantha Bevins, now a 21-year-old junior at Dartmouth College studying Government and Public Policy, who wanted this group to be allowed to vote in the Bay State’s March 2020 presidential primary. Bevins said she is thrilled to learn that the bill received initial approval. “I proposed this legislation … when I was 16 because I wanted fi rst-time voters in the commonwealth to have the same rights as my peers in 27 other states and Washington, D.C.,†said Bevins. “It is crucial that young people have the opportunity to fully participate in their fi rst election cycle by having a say in the primaries on candidates who will ultimately be on the ballot in the general election. I am hopeful our bill will [receive further approval] soon in order to fully enfranchise fi rst-time voters before the next Massachusetts state primaries.†“This legislation promotes a model of civic engagement and full enfranchisement that is critical to foster among our young people, who are the future of this country,†said Meschino. “Hingham resident Samantha Bevins and her peers’ continued engagement in the advocacy process during consecutive legislative sessions demonstrates that these young adults are fully equipped and ready for the opportunity to fully engage in the election process, and I commend them for their groundbreaking eff orts.†â€[The bill] will lead to increased voter turnout that transcends party lines and further engages the youngest voters,†said co-sponsor Rep. Jack Lewis (D-Framingham). “This furthers our civic engagement goals and aligns the commonwealth with 27 other states including Mississippi, Wyoming, West Virginia and Maine.†AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE (H 466) – Would require that American Sign Language (ASL) be taught in all Bay State public elementary and secondary schools to increase interactions between hearing persons and deaf and hard-ofhearing persons, as well as children with autism. Current law allows but does not require schools to teach ASL. “Every student deserves access to diverse linguistic opportunities,†said sponsor Rep. Carol Doherty (D-Taunton). “By requiring that ASL courses be off ered for credit alongside traditional world languages in Massachusetts public schools, we’re not only fostering inclusivity for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community but also enriching our educational landscape with a vibrant and vital language.†SUICIDE PREVENTION HOTLINE ON STUDENT IDS (H 1999) – Would require all public schools with grades 6 to 12, and all public and private colleges to include on BEACON | SEE Page 20 ׉ Ú7cassandra://CCQmzhdlxbZ1ZwFiIhsg7KdD4FXBMf8eWh57WKNHvaYÍ%VÍ`Ì°Í×fó®R•AE°E׉EÚ)|THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 2024 Page 19 HOCKEY | FROM Page 15 game that helped to elevate me. Now it’s come full circle, and I’m happy to pass on some of that wisdom to them.†Stanley Cup still in the cards “I still have another year (with the Capitals organization), but honestly, I’ve had the most fun since turning pro playing right here in Hershey, and I can’t picture playing somewhere else right now. If we win another Calder Cup this year, I would then be looking for a threepeat,†Mike said on his future. “Like I said earlier, Hershey builds teams to win every year. They have already locked in our coaching staff and our leadership group, which really sets the foundation and culture of our team. You lose guys every year to free agency, but when guys sign with the Bears, they are hungry to win. They see the banners, they see all the pictures, they see the videos and hear the stories, and all they want is a taste of it. It’s a good recipe to build a team, and it’s a big reason why I signed here. When my contract is up after next year, we will see where the wind takes me. I think I’d be happy fi nishing my career as a Bear, but if a Stanley Cup contender calls me, I’m all ears. I’ll never completely shut the door on the potential of winning a Stanley Cup, but I’m also I’m not an idiot. I’m a realist and understand I’ve only played three NHL games in my pro career.

You just have to be ready when it does.†Always a Saugonian Vecchione has traveled the country throughout his pro career, but Saugus remains his home. “I bought a home around Saugus Center about fi ve years ago, and live there in the summer. When I get home, I usually hit Joe’s Gym, where I get some good work in with my dad. I also like to put on the rollerblades, and work on my craft in the park. That has always been where I found peace. For as long as I can remember, I’ve always gone to the park to master the game I love. I’ve always found that the work you put in away from the rink has the biggest eff ect, because you only have a certain amount of ice time in the summer, and it’s expensive,†Recommended Vaccines for Medicare Recipients Dear Savvy Senior, My husband and I recently turned 65 and would like to fi nd out which vaccines are recommended and covered by Medicare? New Benefi ciaries Dear New, All recommended vaccines for adults, age 65 and older, should be covered by either Medicare Part B or Part D, but there are some coverage challenges you should be aware of. Here’s a rundown of which vaccines are recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and how Medicare covers them. Covid-19: Even though Covid-19 is no longer a public health emergency, it can still cause severe illness, particularly in older adults. Because the Covid virus continues to mutate, new vaccines are being developed to keep pace, so the CDC recommends that all seniors stay up to date with the latest Covid vaccines, including booster shots. All Covid-19 shots are covered 100 percent by Medicare Part B. Flu: Considered an annual vaccination, most people of all ages receive fl u shots in the fall when flu season begins. The CDC recommends seniors, 65 and older get a high-dose fl u shot for extra protection beyond what a standard fl u shot off ers. The Fluzone High Dose Quadrivalent, FLUAD Quadrivalent and FluBlok Quadrivalent are your three options. Annual fl u shots are covered under Medicare Part B. Pneumonia: These vaccines help protect against pneumococcal disease, which can cause pneumonia, meningitis and other infections. The CDC recommends everyone 65 and older get a pneumococcal vaccine. There are several diff erent vaccine options available, so talk to your doctor or pharmacists to fi nd out which is best for you or visit the CDC’s Pneumococcal Vaccination webpage at CDC.gov/vaccines/vpd/pneumo/ public/index.html. Medicare Part B covers both single dose and two-dose pneumococcal shots once in your lifetime. Shingles: Caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox, shingles is a painful, blistering skin rash that aff ects more than 1 million Americans every year. All people over age 50 are recommended to get the twodose Shingrix vaccine, which is given two to six months apart, even if you previously received Zostavax. In 2020, Shingrix replaced Zostavax, which is no longer available in the U.S. All Medicare Part D prescription drug plans cover shingles vaccinations, but coverage amounts, and reimbursement rules vary depending on where the shot is given. Check your plan. Tdap: Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (whooping cough) are diseases caused by bacteria that can lead to serious illness and death. Therefore, a one-time dose of the Tdap vaccine is recommended to all adults. If you’ve already had a Tdap shot, you should get atetanus-diphtheria (Td) booster shot every 10 years. All Medicare Part D plans cover these vaccinations. RSV: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) can lead to pneumonia or bronchiolitis and can worsen other chronic conditions common among older adults, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The CDC recommends all adults, age 60 and older, talk to their doctor about getting one of the RSV vaccines (either Arexvy or Abrysvo), usually in the fall and winter months when the virus is most prevalent. Most Medicare Part D plans cover the RSV vaccine, but not all. If your plan doesn’t cover it, you can ask for a coverage exception. You can also pay for the shot out of pocket and then follow-up with your plan to get reimbursed. If you pay for the shot upfront, your plan must pay you back. Other Vaccinations There are other vaccines you may need depending on your health, lifestyle or travel plans. To help you get a handle on which ones are appropriate for you, take the CDC’s What Vaccines Do You Need? quiz at www2.cdc.gov/nip/adultimmsched. Also, talk to your doctor during your next visit about what vaccinations you should get. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior†book. Mike said. “There’s nothing better than getting the boys together and playing hours of street hockey until we had blisters on our hands and feet. Later on in the summer, I would do more on ice skating and shooting to gear up for camp, but I live playing on the street hockey court. That being said, Saugus could really use a new street hockey rink. I’m no politician, but Anna Parker is a mess with weeds growing through the concrete. It really makes it nearly impossible to even go down there and enjoy playing. It’s been 25 years since the court was made, and no maintenance has been done on it over the years. It’s a shame the place I spent countless hours at is in such disarray, and so I have to drive to another town to get a good skate in. it’s time for an upgrade, please. “The tennis courts at Belmonte and the basketball courts at Evans are absolutely beautiful, but this has always been a hockey town and it’s time we fi nd a place to put a street hockey rink in with boards and a fence. I’d be willing to raise money and donate my own money to make it happen. A new or renovated facility would inspire more kids to chase their dreams like I did.†But Mike Vecchione’s dreams are far from over, and by June he just might be hoisting another Calder Cup trophy with the Hershey Bears, his fourth title in the past 13 years on three diff erent levels, an achievement that will certainly be diffi cult to replicate.

Supporters said that while suicide is a leading cause of death for people of all ages in the United States, young people are particularly at risk. They noted that according to a study published by the National Center for Health Statistics at the end of last year, suicide was the second leading cause of death for Americans aged 15-24, representing a 56 percent increase in the previous decade. They argued that there are signifi cant disparities in these numbers, with LGBTQ+ youth being at greater risk, and Black youth seeing a 73 percent increase in youth suicide rates in that same time period. “It can be diffi cult for someone to reach out for help even in the best of times and it is essential that we seize every opportunity to provide the necessary resources for our children,†said co-sponsor Rep.

MacDougall extended his hit streak to 10 straight games, while also drawing four walks on the week to raise his season total to 12. The latter mark currently outpaces his strikeout total. He was a threat on the bases as well, stealing eight bases in his last four games to take over the team lead with 13. Kyle Wolff (Boston College) continued his power surge with two home runs over a four-game stretch that was highlighted by a three-game weekend sweep of ACC rival Georgia Tech. Wolff slugged his first homer of the weekend as part of a two-hit, two-RBI performance on Thursday before also going deep on Saturday. The sophomore first baseman from Andover also doubled and drove in two runs in the latter game.

Another Nav who hit in the clutch was infi elder Mason Dobie (Dayton), who closed his week with a walk-off home run in Sunday’s 10th inning to propel the Flyers to the series win over Fordham. Dobie went 3-for-8 over the fi nal two games of the series, collecting a double and his sixth home run of the season on Saturday while driving in two. Dobie paired his power with patience, drawing a pair of walks over the weekend to bring his season total to 16 free passes.

Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote Moroney turned in a series high of two hits while scoring a run of his own on Saturday. He also took the team lead in another category during the week, stealing three bases to move his season total to four in fi ve attempts. It was another strong week for Alex Luccini (UMass Lowell) who finished with five hits and two walks, spurred on by his 3-for-6 performance against Fairfi eld last Tuesday. Luccini slugged a double and stole two bases against the Stags, as he currently leads the River Hawks in steals with seven this year. Luccini’s two additional hits over the weekend brought his season total to 31, the best for any River Hawks player. Fellow outfielder Brady Dever (Brown) slugged his way through the start of his week, going 5-for-7 across consecutive games against Stonehill and Harvard. Dever opened with a perfect 4-for-4 game last Tuesday, collecting a season-high four RBI and walking twice to pair with a double in the Bears’ 14-5 win over Stonehill. Dever followed this with another double on Saturday, driving in both the fi rst and fi nal runs of Brown's 4-2 win to begin a doubleheader against Harvard.

Affectionately known as “Reâ€, was called home by our Lord Jesus Christ on March 29, 2024. Born on September 30, 1943, in the quaint town of Chiusano di San Domenico in the Province of Avellino, Italy, Maria was a spirited soul who lived life to the fullest. Her vivacious personality was evident from her early years, where she danced her way to being known as “Best Dancer†in Revere High School Class of 1963. After high school, Maria and her husband, Ronnie, made homes in Somerville and Kingston, Massachusetts, then settled back in Revere. Still, her heart always held a special place for her women and parents, babies with neonatal abstinence and prevention. Salemme and Palermo told the board that SUDHI has used roughly $18,000 of settlement funds. Just over $8,000 was used for staff salaries and benefi ts, while about $10,000 was spent on program needs such as survey and speaker costs, with $6,500 going toward Naloxone boxes. The Opioid abatement team will install emergency boxes birthplace, Avellino, Italy. Maria was a resilient woman who faced life’s challenges with determination and grace. She spent many years working as a Patient Accounts Representative for Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare, showcasing her care and dedication to those she served. Maria’s creativity was best expressed through her love for knitting, crocheting, crafts, gardening, and making beautiful bows for weddings and all holidays. Her vibrant gardens were a testament to her love for life and the beauty it holds. Maria found joy in the simplest of things - a shopping trip to Marshalls, getting a manicure or pedicure, leafpeeping, or attending a Boston Celtics game. Her love for DooWop music and travel took her to many concerts, musicals, and corners of the world. Maria’s love for the beach, sunbathing, and water fountains was a refl ection of her free spirit. Maria was a loving wife to Ronald Champoux, a doting mother to her daughters, Noelle Champoux and Danielle Champoux Bohnke, and a cherished mother-in-law to Nathan Bohnke. Her love extended to her grandchildren - Lilly and Bennett Olson and Travis Bohnke, as well all her granddogs, Louis and Ruby, to whom she snuck many a treat. She is survived by all of them including her brother, Mario Meriano, and her sister, Angelina Harrington, and many in-laws, nieces, and nephews. Maria was preceded in death by her parents, Carmine and Morosa Meriano, and her brothers Walter Iandolo and Michael, Carmine, and Anthony Meriano, as well as her grandson, Gavin Bohnke. Her love was immeasurable, and what mattered most to her were her family, close friends, neighbors, gardening, and cooking. She was often asked to bring salad with her famous homemade dressing to family events. Everyone loved Maria - her spirit was infectious, and her resilience was admirable. Her life was a testimony to her creative, loving, and spirited nature. We invite you to share your memories, stories, and pictures of Mawith doses of Narcan, a lifesaving medication that reverses the eff ects of an overdose and decreases the chance of death. Boxes will be placed outdoors, on telephone poles or other prominent spots. There will also be Naloxone boxes placed in businesses that can provide access in case of emergencies. Palermo explained the boxes were part of harm reduction, and will potentially prevent the worst outcome from overdoses. ria on her memorial page. Your recollections and photos will serve as a tribute to the wonderful woman that she was and will continue to bring smiles to our faces as we remember her.
