The Presidential Election runner-up, Democrat Kamala Harris, topped the ballot in Malden with a 66%-29% win over Republican President-Elect Donald Trump. HarCTE OCAT AT www.advocatenews.net Published Every Friday 617-387-2200 ris received 15,503 votes to Trump’s 6,376 votes in Malden. Surprisingly, however, even with the lure of another historic election and some of the best early November weather possible, voter turnout was just 58%, nearly 15% lower than turnout in both the previous 2020 and 2016 Presidential Elections. While Malden’s registered voters’ list soared to a new city high of 38,425, the turnout was just 22,305 – 58% – down from 73% in 2020 and 71 percent in 2016. Again, Malden was in line with the numbers from across the Commonwealth. Massachusetts was forecast to potentially set a new voter turnout record (as was Malden), but fell short as 2.9 million cast votes (57%), falling short of the 3.6 million voters in 2020. In another contested elecU.S. Senator Markey comes home to Malden on Election Day tion, Malden voted to reelect incumbent Elizabeth Warren to the U.S. Senate over Republican challenger John Deaton by a wide 69%-28% margin.

The ceremony will include the unveiling of a full-sized bronze statue of a World War I soldier.

Veterans Day is a federal holiday that honors all American veterans, regardless of which war they served in. It's a day to thank living veterans for their service and to acknowledge that all who served have sacrificed.

He progressed through the ranks, becoming a sergeant in 2014, and lieutenant in 2023, contributing to our criminal investigation and special operations units. We appreciate the community’s support during this difficult time and offer our deepest condolences to Scott’s family and friends.” On another posting this week, MPD stated: “May his eternal rest be a source of inspiration, motivating us to continue honoring his life and dedication to serving with pride, both on and off duty.” The department offered its deepest condolences to Carroll’s family and friends, and thanked the Malden community for its support. Before he became a police officer, Carroll served in the U.S. Marine Corps for 18 years, beginning shortly after his graduation from Everett High, from 1987-2005. His lengthy military service included a deployment to Iraq. He was a “dedicated professional and respected leader” who “served with integrity and pride,” his department stated. Malden Police Lt.

Frankie DeCandia was a oneof-a-kind son, brother, cousin and friend who always had a big smile and an even bigger hug ready for everyone he knew and loved. He lived his life to the fullest, even when he was diagnosed in 2006 with a form of leukemia called CML. Although Frankie fought valiantly, he passed away from complications in April 2008 at the age of 23. Just before he passed, Frankie asked his best friend, Jason Rossi, to tell everyone he said “Hi.” When Jason asked Frankie whom he wanted to say Hi to, Frankie said simply, “Everyone!” “Frank Says Hi” is a nonprofi t organization founded in 2009 to honor and remember Frank “Frankie” DeCandia. Each year the “Frank Says Hi” committee holds a fundraiser to remember Frankie and raise money for yearly scholarships. Since 2009, over $75,000 has been awarded to deserving high school seniors. Frankie’s roots run Malden deep. His parents, Frank and Marcie DeCandia, are 1974 Malden High grads. Frankie’s sister Stephanie is a teacher at the Beebe School in Malden, and Uncle Dana and Auntie Marie Brown are well-known around town. This year the annual “Frank Says Hi” fundraiser will be “Breakfast with Santa”! The event will take place on Saturday, November 30, from 9:00 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Irish American Club in Malden. Henry’s Catering will be providing one of their delicious breakfasts. There will be pictures with Santa, arts and crafts for children, tons of raffl e prizes, and more!

Their other two brothers – Mike Powers is one of the best H.S. hockey players ever to lace them up in this city – and the late Brian “Boog” Powers one of all-time Malden slow-pitch softball greats. In making his rounds that day, one of his constituents mentioned they had heard the news that the Senator intended to seek a new sixyear term in the 2026 election cycle. “Yes, I’m ready to continue the fight,” was his response, and then, in an aside to those who zero in on the age factor – “It’s not your age, it’s the age of your ideas.” Senator Markey also found time to stop by the Malden High Baseball snack table in the I-A lobby, where he and wife made a generous donation, and he obliged to give the three players the thrill of their young lives, a photo taken with a sitting U.S. Senator – from their own hometown, no less. The Senator even excused himself to go out and retrieve his very own Malden High Baseball hat, which he received as a gift while attending a summer baseball game earlier this year at Bob Rotondi Field in Malden. “I leave it in my car, because I wear it so often,” he told the players. Then he was gone, departed for another destination, perhaps to another city in support of some other Democrat who could use his help. But that’s Ed Markey – another place to go, still another room to make his own, as he has been doing since he first made waves at the State House in Boston close to 50 years ago. “This is the most energized I have ever been,” he told WCVB-TV “On the Record” show co-hosts Ed Harding and Janet Wu Sunday. The Senator gives no one any other impression, ever. Let the next campaign begin. *** Markey’s age not uncommon for Massachusetts pols As they say, age is just a number. For Massachusetts politicians at several levels of government, they have very much taken this adage to heart. Age has crept to the forefront of national politics as well, seeing as how incumbent President Joe Biden, the oldest sitting President in history at 81, was convinced into going from candidate for reelection to lame duck in July after a faulty debate with now President-elect Donald Trump. How about Trump, then, who, at 78, will be the second-oldest President – at age 82 – to live in the White House should he finish his four-year term in 2028? President-elect Trump, who defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in historic fashion Tuesday, will turn 79 on his next birthday, June 14, 2025. Guess who was born less than a month later, on July 11, 1946? U.S. Senator Ed Markey! He is 28 days younger than Trump. Senator Markey will also turn 79 in 2025 and he just this week doubled down on his announcement to seek another six-year term in the 2026 election, when he will be 80 years old, He would be 86 at the conclusion of that six-year term. Even still, if Senator Markey did complete that tenure, he would not even make the Top 10 of oldest-serving U.S. Senators all-time. The oldest-ever was the late Strom Thurmond, who served until he was 100 years old. He passed away in June 2003 at the age of 100. Looking at the landscape of politicians in Massachusetts, Markey’s age is common among them, not markedly older. Regardless, according to Markey, “It’s not your age, it’s the age of your ideas. And I’ve always been the youngest guy in the room,” Markey said on a local televised talk show on Sunday. Markey’s fellow Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren was reelected to a third term on Tuesday and is 75 years old. So is Mass. U.S. Rep. Richard Neal. How about another local pol who was reelected on Tuesday, Medford-Malden U.S. Rep. Paul Donato? Reelected to a 13th term on Tuesday, Donato turned 83 years young on October 27, having been born in 1941. Senate Majority Leader Cynthia Creem is 82, and Donato’s Medford colleague, Sen. Pat Jehlen (D-Medford, Somerville) is 81. Mass. House Speaker Ron Mariano turned 78 on Halloween and Senate President Karen Spilka is 71. Secretary of State William Galvin has been at the helm for 30 years and is now 74. *** One of his candidates of choice won on Tuesday, though not the one for whom he was sign-holding If you were not paying close attention, you may have thought Dave Rimmer was out there the whole time the polling place was open on Election Day, Tuesday. If you looked around the city of Malden you may have thought he was the only one holding a sign – for any candidate – considering the dearth of signs, anywhere. But there he was, holding a large sign across from the Irish American Club, supporting Republican John Deaton. When asked on Tuesday, Rimmer did not take credit for staying out with the sign all day. “No, I took some breaks, but it was a lot of time overall,” the 1957 Malden Catholic High School graduate said. He was out there when the polls opened at 7:00 a.m., left for a break around 10:30 a.m., returned around noon until 3:00, another break and then from 4:15 until the polls closed. Though Deaton was defeated and Warren reelected, 59%-40%, Deaton did receive over 1.1 million votes statewide. “I liked what [Deaton] stood up for, he had a lot of the same positions as [President-elect] Trump,” Rimmer said. The longtime Maldonian also backed Trump for President, so one of his wishes was granted Tuesday. Rimmer did not go right into college after graduating from Malden Catholic, but instead began working for Stop & Shop at Wellington Circle in Medford and attending night business classes at Northeastern University. His family wanted him to pursue a career in law enforcement, but he chose instead to go into the insurance business, where he worked from 1963 until his retirement in 2004 at age 65. He just celebrated his 85th birthday. Though his candidate did not win Tuesday, Rimmer said he intends on staying active in politics and will hold a sign in the next election as well. *** Malden High students learn “Civics in Real Time” as poll workers One of them has been involved in politics – sort of – for a couple of years now. The other is a novice, but an eager one. Both of them – Henry Fan and Shubham Paudel – both members of Malden High School’s junior class of 2026, were hard at work in a “Civics in Real Time” job on Election Day as poll workers at the Beebe K-8 School. Fan got his feet wet, so to speak, when he had a role in Mayor Gary Christenson’s “State of the City” video in 2023. He then started working on a yearround basis as part of the Mayor’s Youth Employment Program in various capacities. This election season finds Fan working at the polling place as a checkin monitor, along with Paudel. Paudel is also available to translate in Nepali if the need arises. “We enjoy providing assistance to voters,” Fan said, “and being part of the process.” “We are learning a lot,” Paudel agreed. “I did not know a lot about elections before today.” This is a solicitation of insurance.

Senior defensive back Xavier Blaise took that theme to an extreme on Friday night, October 18. Blaise intercepted a Chelsea Red Devils pass deep in the Malden end zone and did not even hesitate. The Tornado senior turned on the burners and blasted out of the end zone and took a sharp beeline toward the left sideline. He juked one defender at about the 25-yard line, and after that it was all green. Blaise raced all the way to the opposite end zone for six points and a new Malden High School record, with a 107-yard “Pick Six.” Blaise’s big return broke a nearly 50-year Malden High record set in 1975 by senior captain Anthony Jesi, who ran an interception back for a touchdown 102 yards, GOLDEN TORNADOS SOCCER TRIO: From left: Sophomore Renato De Lima Serrao scored his first career goal; senior Thomas Tierney made nine saves; and sophomore Abdulmohalmen Kalefa played very well for the winners in a 1-1 tie with 8-4-5 Methuen at Macdonald Stadium in Malden.

The TD was the first of two for Blaise, who also caught a 27-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Aidan Brett just before halftime of an eventual 47-12 win over Chelsea at Red Devil Stadium. The win was Malden’s second of the season (2-4 overall, 1-3 Greater Boston League) and first in the GBL this season. Malden was back in action October 23 at home, falling to Revere, 2414, and dropping to 2-5 overall, 1-4 GBL.

McGuffie, who leads Malden in every offensive category, added two long touchdowns to his season total, on runs of 78 and 65 yards. Sophomore receiver Manny Perez had three catches for 47 yards in the first quarter to spark Malden. McGuffie – who has 8 TDs on the season, tops in the GBL– finished with a whopping 233 yards rushing on just 12 carries (and the two TDs). He is closing in on becoming the first-ever 1,000-yard rusher as a freshman in Malden High history. He has over 700 yards rushing in seven games to date, with three games left on the 2024 schedule. Senior Malden captain Kevin Exilhomme also had an impressive night with five catches for 89 yards and two TDs. Malden senior split end Johnson Huynh also had a 24-yard TD catch, his first offensive TD of the year, to go along with two special teams scores. Malden Head Coach Witche Exilhomme was pleased with the result and the overall performance of the Tornado team. “When we come to play, that leads to good results. We got some excellent individual performances from ‘X’ [Blaise], Jayden [McGuffie] and Kervenson [“Kevin” Exilhomme] and their teammates worked to set them up for all their scores,” the fourth-year Malden Head Coach said. Coach Exilhomme pointed to the play of Daniel Da Silva and senior captain Earl Fevrier as keys to the Malden defense. Senior twoway center and defensive tackle Isaac Pineda also had a steady game for Malden. “Hopefully this team effort will continue this week and carry us RECORD SETTER: Malden High senior Xavier Blaise set a new school record when he intercepted a Chelsea pass in the end zone and ran it back 107 yards for a Malden touchdown in a 47-12 win.

Malden will have two non-playoff games on the weekends of November 8-9 and 15-16, with the season finale on Thanksgiving morning, Thursday, November 28. Malden Boys Soccer earns a win and tie to close out the 2024 season. Sophomore Renato Serrao scored his first career goal on Saturday – and it was a big one – in a 1-1 tie with visiting Methuen at Macdonald Stadium. Senior goaltender Thomas Tierney also excelled with nine saves for the Tornados. Sophomore Abdulmohalmen Kalefa also played well for Malden, against a solid Methuen team which went to 8-4-5 with the tie and had beaten Malden, 5-0, just nine days earlier. In the Malden High soccer season finale, in a non-league match with Gloucester, freshman Ronald Fernandes and junior Yasser Belatretche scored goals to lead Malden to its first victory of the season, 2-1. ׉ 7cassandra://HpIOxHmZytwk5BENDwsXU3U9wtPyJDuRv0hhUZ8MydI5!`g-X" 0׉E"THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 8, 2024 Page 9 Grand Opening of Thaiger Den Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/Advocate.news.ma RON’S OIL Call For PRICE MELROSE, MA 02176 NEW CUSTOMER’S WELCOME ACCEPTING VISA, MASTERCARD & DISCOVER (781) 397-1930 OR (781) 662-8884 100 GALLON MINIMUM 425r Broadway, Saugus Located adjacent to Kohls Plaza Route 1 South in Saugus at the intersection of Walnut Street Residents and restaurant employees are shown with Malden Chamber of Commerce Director Marianne Cohen (second from left), Ward 6 Councillor/City Council President Steve Winslow (third from left), Restaurant Owner Nisa Thanangthirapong (left of Mayor), Mayor Gary Christenson (center), Restaurant Owner Usanus Siritaratn (right of Mayor), Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley (third from left) and Ward 5 Councillor Ari Taylor (far left).

Sports do more than keep us in shape and make memories, they teach us lessons that we do not realize they even give us. Senior and captain Sean Retotal said that “discipline” is what he learned. “All the pain you go through in a race,” Retotal said, Law Offices of JOSEPH D.

AICPA Personal Financial Specialist Designee “it’s hard and you need that drive to just keep going.” Fellow captain Gordon Zeng said that running cross country has shown him that “Social skills, life skills or athletic skills, it is all about putting in the work and being consistent.” Zeng added that one needs to “go through with things in order to make a diff erence.” Finally, yet another captain, Slade Harding, said the sport showed him how to “be honest” with himself. Harding’s father, Corey Harding, agreed, noting how much he has watched Slade grow over the years, because in such a unique sport you need an “individual drive” that you can “turn on yourself at any time.” With these seniors coming full circle, from being young and eager freshmen to wise and experienced seniors, it is a surreal feeling for many as they are fi nally saying farewell to the team. Harding said, “It’s pretty cool, because I remember when I was a freshman, I was pretty slow, and it was always really cool looking up to all the seniors that were super-fast, and I was like, that’ll be me one day.” Ivana Marinkovic Kevin Chen Kevin Lin Sean Retotal Slade Harding Retotal concurred, noting “it does not feel real, it feels like I’m in a movie.” Zeng felt like it was a surreal experience, concluding that “I was once over there taking pictures with them at the posters, signing their posters, and now, I’m the one having my photo taken … I’m the one having that poster being signed. Honestly, it felt so great.” Not only is this a time for refl ection, but it is also one for the classes under them to acknowledge their departures. Junior Sean Cochran remarked that this group of seniors made a sport that may “otherwise have been boring” a little more “fun and silly – they lightened the mood.” Senior captain Gordon Zeng expressed how much appreciation he has for running cross country: “It’s all about the community here, when I started freshman year I had no friends except the ones from middle school. The upperclassmen were open and inviting and showed me what high school is really about.” Coaches also play a massive role in the athletes’ lives. Coaches act as mentors and friends for each member of these teams and often have very special bonds with the senior groups. Coach Sean Weldon refl ected that “it’s crazy the time that we’ve put into the season, but also that they’ve grown up so much from the years they’ve been here.” Weldon also expressed how great it is for coaches to watch players grow throughSEASON | SEE PAGE 19 ׉ 7cassandra://D8a-XFAVsXf_SW1Ja03vvAM6wX7JrGSjy18-MvgBCtw5`g-X" 4׉EmTHE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 8, 2024 Page 13 Malden JV and Freshman Girls Volleyball Teams celebrate ‘PINK OUT’ game The 2024 Malden High School Freshman Girls Volleyball Team celebrated a win over visiting Somerville High on “PINK OUT” Night to support breast cancer research during the month of October.

Malden School Committee Vice Chairperson and Co-Chairperson of the superintendent search committee Jennifer Spadafora shared how she and fellow CoChair Sharyn Rose Zeiberg, along with the search committee, prioritized diverse representation. “We wanted to make sure we had an educator from each union that was represented. So Unit A is teachers, Unit B is directors, and Unit C is all the paraprofessionals, as well as parents whose students represent every aspect,” Spadafora said. “We wanted to have an and enjoy the community spirit.

And to satisfy your appetite, the Revelry Food Truck will be on-site, serving up classic New Orleans-style Cajun dishes. This year’s Holiday Market focused on finding a superintendent that would embrace and facilitate these crucial exchanges. Dr. Sippel’s beliefs align with these ideals as he elaborated how “it is really important to me to lead in a way that is inclusive and collaborative.” ”I am going to make a lot of decisions because that is what I have been hired to do, but I strive to include people and get input from them in decisions that are going to impact them,” Dr. Sippel said. “I continually want to consult with principals, teachers, the teachers union, parents, and students to get their ideas on what the district can be, what the district should be, and what steps we should take to get there.” Even with the short time he has had in the position, Dr. Sippel has already begun enforcing this collaborative initiative. “I live by a general rule: collectively we are a lot more intelligent than I am individually, collectively we are a lot stronger than we are individually,” he said. ”The fact that he put that as a goal, to listen and work collaboratively with not just the adults but the students, I think is exactly what we need as a district,” Malden High School 8th-year Principal Chris Mastrangelo said, ”and again, it has to be genuine, and I’ve seen nothing but genuineness from him so far.” Recalling his roots in educaFULL SERVICE GUTTER PROTECTION – SCHEDULE YOUR FREE INSPECTION NOW! 1-888-617-2908 tion after attaining his degrees in international relations and a certificate in Latin American studies, Dr. Sippel started his career as a bilingual Spanish teacher in Los Angeles with the help of the organization Teach for America. promises an afternoon filled with holiday cheer, local art and delicious food and drink. So, gathSince then, Dr. Sippel has continued to use his fluency in Spanish to embrace inclusivity. “I have tremendous empathy for our students here who do not speak English, not just students, but families who don’t speak English and who are far from their home,” Dr. Sippel said. “All of us, whether language is the issue or not, whether it’s a teacher trying to become a more effective teacher or a student trying to become better in a certain subject or a family that’s having a rough season, we can all grow,” Dr. Sippel emphasized. Spadafora further supported Dr. Sippel’s focus on inclusivity. She explained how, given Dr. Sippel’s professional background, she “knew that it would not be overwhelming to come here, like some people that have been interviewed and might have come from districts that are smaller but Malden is unique. ”In the whole state, we are the most diverse high school in Massachusetts,” she continued. “I think it takes a really strong person to be able to lead a district where every single student has the ability to succeed.” Within Dr. Sippel’s first few months, other administrators have noted how well his approach to entering the administration is going, and how it will benefit his relationships in the future. “You have to earn trust, and that is the phase where we build those foundations, because things are not always going to be great,” MHS Principal Mastrangelo said. “Things will get rocky, that is life, but if you can establish a sense of trust and er your friends and family, support local artisans, and kick off the season in Malden’s own style. a sense of understanding that is what gets you through those rocky times. “That is what [Dr. Sippel] is doing right now and I think it is wise. Some people come in and they want to change everything right away. Well, you turn everything upside down and people feel resentful, they get caught in their emotions, and then we do not move forward,” Mastrangelo added. Looking at overall goals for Malden’s district, Dr. Sippel spoke to how “Malden is a community like a lot of urban cities, where public education can make the difference for children in terms of whether they have opportunities after high school.” “It is not for us to decide for them what they should do or what they should pursue in life,” Dr. Sippel said. “What we must do is to make sure they are prepared to have as many options as they can possibly have.” Dr. Sippel said he intends to always have the best interests of the students of Malden at heart and to “constantly discover new ways of supporting families and educators to provide the educational and social opportunities that students deserve.” “I want Malden to be the very best it can possibly be. I want us to offer a curriculum and classes that put us at the forefront of education that other schools might not be offering,” Spadafora said. “I want us to be the school that they talk about in magazines and say, ‘Move to Malden, this is where you want your kids to go,’ and I think he can get us on the road there, so I am excited.” ׉ 7cassandra://_KoRBrlQgfPcyQdUgu1XfIYnhPeLBAgHzx_8nIQsKGs28`g-X" 8׉ETHE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 8, 2024 Page 17 OBITUARY Joseph B.

The same provisions which permitted public bodies to meet remotely, or convene in a hybrid manner, have been extended through March 31, 2025. This extension allows public bodies to continue to meet remotely or to meet in a hybrid manner, without a quorum of the public body physically present at a meeting location.

Sticks and stones and all that jazz. Anyway, this one’s for you, Douglas Tran, he of All Season’s Table (AST) fame. I love Douglas. We in Malden love Douglas, the man who singlehandedly – arguably – is the one responsible for bringing Malden Square back from the verge of extinction. The Barney Kahn y io of 2024! The Anthony “Papa” Spadafora of Malden Square. The dynamic duo of Malden Square, Douglas Tran – and his gal Friday – Jackie Bouley, making the Square swanky again. With that said here’s what the Sunday Boston Globe Magazine had to say about AST in 2008 in an article avvya yavvy eniiooravvy S iorn or vy oiori by Jim Miller How to Write a Living Will Dear Savvy Senior, What’s the best way to go about writing a living will? I’m approaching age 73 and in poor health and would like to get this done without spending a lot of money. Need Help Dear Need, Preparing a living will now is a smart decision that gives you say in how you want to be treated at the end of your life. Here’s what you should know, along with some resources to help you write one. What to Prepare To adequately spell out your wishes regarding your end-of-life medical treatment you need two legal documents: A “living will” which tells your doctor what kind of care you want to receive if you become incapacitated, and a “health care power of attorney” (or health care proxy), which names a person you authorize to make medical decisions on your behalf if you become unable to. These two documents are known as an “advance directive,” and will only be utilized if you are too ill to make medical decisions yourself. You can also change or update it whenever you please. It isn’t necessary to hire a lawyer to prepare an advance directive. There are a number of free or low-cost do-it-yourself resources available today to help you create one, and it takes only a few minutes from start to fi nish. Some top options include: CaringInfo.org: This is a program created by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization that provides free state-specifi c living will forms that you can download, print and fi ll out. Or you can call 800-658-8898 and they will mail them to you and answer any questions you may have. MyDirectives.com: If you’d rather create a digital (online only) advance directive, MyDirectives is an online tool and mobile app that will help you create, store and share a detailed, customized digital advance directive. FiveWishes.org: This is another top-rated resource for creating a comprehensive paper or digital advance directive. They charge $5 for the paper form and $15 for the digital version, which is stored on the website that you or your family can access anytime. VA Advance Directive: If you’re a veteran, the VA also provides a free advance directive form specifi cally for you at VA.gov/fi nd-forms/aboutform-10-0137. Other Options If you’re interested in making an entire estate plan that will include your will and/or trust, power of attorney and advance directive, there are many do-it-yourself online services that typically run between $100 and $250. Some top services include Quicken WillMaker & Trust software (WillMaker.com), Trust & Will (TrustandWill.com), and Legal Zoom (LegalZoom.com), which also makes basic living wills for only $39. Or, if you’d rather have a professional do it for you, contact an estate planning attorney. See NAELA.org or NAEPC.org to help you locate someone in your area. Costs will vary depending on where you live, but you can expect to pay somewhere between $500 and $2,000 for a basic estate plan. Add-ons You should also consider getting a do-not-resuscitate order (DNR) as part of your advance directive, since advanced directives do little to protect you from unwanted emergency care like CPR. To create a DNR, ask your doctor to fi ll out a state appropriate form and sign it. Another tool you should know about that will complement your advance directive is the Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment, or POLST (sometimes called Medical Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment, or MOLST). A POLST form translates your end-of-life wishes into medical orders to be honored by your doctors. To learn more about your state’s program or set one up, see POLST.org. Tell Your Family To ensure your fi nal wishes are followed, make sure to tell your family members, health care proxy and doctors so they all know what you want. You should also provide them copies of your advance directive or if you create a digital version, make sure you share it electronically. 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. titled “Northern Exposure - Malden just might be the hotspot waiting to happen:” “Modern Asian décor, cheery lighting, and wide-open space make AST the place for weekend cocktails in Malden. Hell, even mid-week, the bar is hopping! And why not? The drink menu is kicky and creative, and the sushi is fantastic.” • AST had barely opened for business when these nice words appeared on May 20, 2007, in the Globe North section of The Boston Sunday Globe: “Not bad for a place with fl at screens, ikebana fl oral arrangements, and fancy hand soap in the bathroom. When we left, Tran rushed over to say goodbye. Meredith and Jessica, he said, smiling, to prove he had remembered. And with that, we were offi cially charmed. Most likely, there will soon be too many customers for Tran to give us that kind of personal attention, but we’ll forgive him. We’d rather the place get busy so that is stays around for a long time.” • Meredith and Jessica, just for the record, in 2024 I would bet my last dollar bill that Douglas would remember both your names. That is just how that cat rolls. • Dr. Ralph Lazer Epstein, 83, of Danvers, formerly of Malden. May his memory be a blessing. • Toby (Klasky) Bondy, 84, of Boca Raton, Fla., and Lexington, formerly of Malden. May her memory be a blessing. As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character Columbo would say, “Just one more thing, sir” – I recently ran a picture (again) on Facebook of legendary singer/songwriter/human rights activist Stevie Wonder playing at the Jenkins Auditorium back in 1973. The photo is going viral with tons of comments and remembrances of that fabled day. The photo was taken by well-known Maldonian (M.H.S. Class of 1973’s) Kenny Mazonson. Stevie did a short set of songs at the Jenkins at the behest of one of our beloved educators at the time, Mrs. Phillips. The announcement came early in the day that an “emergency gathering for the whole school” was to take place almost immediately. For some odd reason, the sophomore class was excluded – so much for the “whole school.” Once all were seated, to the delight of the student body assembled, our Principal Arthur Boyle announced from the stage that “Steve Wonder (NOT Stevie, as he was known to all) was in the Auditorium.” Stevie comes strutting down the Auditorium steps – accompanied by Mrs. Phillips – decked out in all his 1973 glory! From the story I have heard, another educator, Mrs. Cliff ord, had become friends with Stevie’s manager while the Class of 1973 were doing a Sickle Cell Anemia Fundraiser. Although sophomores weren’t initially invited, as soon as word spread of who was in the house, teachers soon relented, and the rest of the student body came rushing in. I had a prime seat already. I had a “study hall” across from the Jenkins, and as soon as I got wind of what was going on, I gate crashed. Mrs. Philip’s son Brian remembers the day like this: “I was in 8th grade, only 14 at the time and I really lucked out being there. I knew Stevie was famous, but I don’t think it really hit me HOW big a deal it was till he won all those Grammys a few months later and the years that followed. I was just starting to discover music in general and my own personal taste. Sadly, I think I only have one picture and it appeared in the yearbook that year. I know there are others fl oating around somewhere, my mom, who orchestrated the whole thing moved in with my sister and her husband in Virginia and photos she had are probably packed away somewhere.” Stevie played a short set. I remember being awestruck, as were most in the Jenkins that day, Stevie being one of the biggest recording artists of the day and already on his way to becoming an icon. We wanted it to last forever; it certainly does in ALL our memories, but Mr. Boyle fi nally took the stage and announced (and I quote), “Mr. Wonder, the boys and girls have to get back to class.” Helen Mae (Battle) Phillips was described as a “wonderful and gracious woman” with a “gentle spirit and caring ways.” She passed away in April of 2014 at 89 years young.

Fellow coach Michael Nicholson explained that this year they have “had an awesome group of kids who have supported the coaching staff and [are] always doing their best to help new kids.” However, as many coaches feel, Nicholson noted that he is “excited to see what they do with their lives, they’re going to do so much.” Looking to next year, sometimes this thought might be scary for teams that have graduating seniors. For reassurance, Harding urged the team to “stay consistent no matter what,” and Retotal affi rmed that the team needs to “always keep pushing even when things get tough.” Zeng is hopeful for the team next year when he has departed; he expressed, “I have no doubt in my mind the underclassmen will become better runners and better leaders than we all are, but honestly I just want to see this amazing team environment stay the same way.” Harding off ered a little piece of advice: to “keep working over the summer and always be running and improving yourself” and “It is always crucial for off-season work to be put in by athletes in order to perform in-season.” This team cannot be more thankful for the wonderful group of seniors, as well as captains, they have had. Now, the seniors are eager for what the future has in store for each of them.

Under the prior law, the estate tax exemption was only $1million. Under the prior law, if the descedent had a gross estate of $1,750,000 and then gave away $800,000 prior to dying, then the federal gross estate would be reduced to $950,000. Although the remaining gross estate of $950,000 was less than the $1million filing threshold, the $800,000 in gifts would reduce the filing threshold to $200,000 ($1million minus $800,000). The $200,000 became the adjusted filing threshold. Since the remaining gross estate of $950,000 exceeds the $200,000, an estate tax return would have to be fi led. The good news is that only the remaining gross estate of $950,000 would have been subject to the Massachusetts estate tax. The bad news was that all of the $950,000 would have been subject to the estate tax based upon the tax table found in the IRS instructions for the computation of the state death tax credit found in Table B of the Form 706 fi ling instructions (1999 Revision), the basis of how the Massachusetts estate tax is calculated to this day. NEW MASS ESTATE TAX EXEMPTION AND FILING THRESHOLD The new Massachusetts estate tax provisions eliminate this adjusted filing threshold dilemma. As long as the gross estate is less than $2million, no estate tax return is required to be fi led, irrespective of any gifts made prior to death. Furthermore, if the gross estate is $3million, the fi rst $2million is totally tax free. The Massachusetts estate tax on $2million is $99,600. Our state legislature has provided for a maximum tax credit equal to exactly $99,600. Therefore, only the gross estate in excess of $2million is subject to estate tax in Massachusetts. Granted, the beginning tax bracket will be 8%. As an example of how to apply the new Mass estate tax, assume a decedent has an estate valued at $3million. He gives away $1.1million prior to death leaving him with a gross estate at death of $1,900,000. Since $1,900,000 is less than $2million, there is no Massachusetts estate tax return necessary to be fi led. Taxpayers should at least realize that it might very well make sense to make a completed gift of bank account monies, for example, to children or to certain irrevocable trusts in order to remove such assets from the taxable estate. With bank accounts, we are not concerned with achieving the so-called stepup in cost basis equal to the date of death value, as we would be concerned with appreciated assets such as real estate or a stock portfolio. In fact, any asset that has not appreciated in value could be given away prior to death to minimize or eliminate the Mass estate tax. Joseph D.
