PERSONAL
UPDATE
The June edition of the Essex
Happenings Blog will be slightly shorter than normal as during May 2015, I
enjoyed a 5 day stay at Lahey Hospital in Beverly to treat an infection in my
remaining good leg. The treatment was excellent and the infection has cleared
up and I was discharged but the time in the hospital and the follow up medical
appointments cut into my available time.

On Tuesday, June 9th,
North Shore Elder Services is celebrating 39 years of “making life easier” for
North Shore elders and their families and caregivers. We hope that
you can join us in saluting our staff, Board Members, volunteers, and vendors
who have been essential in providing needed services to more than 20,000
persons over four decades.
In light of all our busy schedules, we have planned a morning event at
the Danversport Yacht Club that will permit you to celebrate with us and then
get on with the rest of your day. Coffee and pastries will be
available from 7:30 a.m., breakfast served at 8:00 a.m., and our brief program
will conclude by 9:00 a.m.
Individual tickets are available at $75 each. The opportunity is
available to be a Table Host at $750 (which includes ten tickets and
recognition at the event) or a Corporate Sponsor at $1500 (which also includes
10 tickets and recognition as a Corporate Sponsor). Honor an elder with a
suggested donation of $39.

We look forward to seeing you on June 9 at the Danversport Yacht Club. Sincerely,

MOST RECENT READING EXPERIENCE
During the past month, among
other books, I have read is a most entertaining book called “THE RESIDENCE.
Inside the Private Residence of the White House” by Kate Browner.
The book is a compilation of
stories and remembrances related by the house keeping, cooks, florists and
other members of the household staff in one of the most famous houses in
America, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC. The stories begin with
the occupation of the property by the Kennedy family with their young children
to the present occupants of the house, the Obama family with their teen-age
daughters. The book is filled with interesting, warm and sometimes
difficult experiences. The story continues through two different
political party occupants with different agendas. I will not attempt to
report on the numerous incidents that occurred from Harry Truman through the
Eisenhower, Johnson, Reagan, two Bush families and the Clinton family
with a teen age daughter and numerous social matters. The book was highly
entertaining and informative and I strongly recommend the book
CONDOLENCES

offered to the family of Mr. James McCann of Danvers who passed away earlier
