Chichester Grange
Chichester Grange
met at the Grange Hall on Wednesday, October 15, with Master Anne Boisvert
presiding. It was voted that the Secretary should purchase a three-drawer
file cabinet to hold secretary’s materials, which do not need to be carried
back and forth every meeting, and also to store materials for planning
programs. The bench under the maple in Memorial Park has been straightened
by Perry Brothers Monument Company. The Secretary will be sending out the
annual letter and dues notices at the end of October. Wildlife sightings
included deer, a skunk, wild turkeys, and squirrels observed locally and
raccoons and banana slugs seen in Washington State.
The Lecturer’s program was devoted to reviewing the resolutions, which will
be voted upon at the State Grange Annual Convention in Nashua on October 23
to 26. The resolutions covered topics such as Smart Grid Technology, Fuel
Efficiency, Sustainable Agriculture, Property Tax Relief, and Recycling, as
well as some changes to the State Grange By-Laws. Members discussed the
resolution topics to give some guidance to Anne and Marty Boisvert who will
be Chichester Grange’s delegates to the convention.
The evening ended with cider and doughnuts and a time for fellowship. The
next meeting will be November 5th. The program will be Show and Tell, so
members are encouraged to bring in something interesting to show and talk
about.

Out Of Your Attic
Thrift Shop
Clutter Just Seems to Multiply
By Ruthi True
Are you one of those people who hates to throw away stuff because maybe some day
you’ll need it? Maybe it’s in the basement, attic, closet, old toy box,
bookcase, cellar, spare room maybe it’s in a kitchen drawer. Wherever it is and
if you don’t need it, or want it or use it, why not donate it to OUT OF YOUR
ATTIC THRIFT SHOP so our customers can use it or we can use it for one of our
projects.
We have a new project going most of the time and anyone wanting to know what
we’re doing can go to our web site anytime. We are very proud of all the hard
work we accomplish each year and all the folks we help. Someone else is in
charge of projects and not myself, but I know Christmas is the next big project
we are working on. I do know they just finished 634 stockings to send to Iraq.
We are collecting new toys for kids for Christmas this year and we expect the
number needing help will be even bigger then last year, as times are getting
tighter for a lot of folks who never had to ask for help from us before.
The air is getting colder and we have started getting out our winter coats.
If you’re searching for that thrift shop that makes you feel comfortable and
relaxing, come give us a try, you’ll be glad you did. Many folks come here and
meet new friends. If you come a long distance, you may find it well worth your
while to shop with us at 345 Suncook Valley Road, Chichester.
Every thrift shop has its own character and its own special qualities that make
it what it is, thanks to all the people who are continually telling us what ours
is, that’s why we work so hard to serve you, our local communities and their
people.
Wish list:
1) Book entitled Lost Boy by David Peltz.
2) Dickies pants 40 waist-32 leg for Pittsfield gentleman.
3) New Christmas toys for projects (boys and girls).
Letter
I would like to
introduce myself to the voters of Chichester and Pembroke. My name is Dianne
Schuett and I am a first-time candidate for the House of Representatives for
your district. I have been a New Hampshire resident for thirty years. I am
now retired and I am the widow of a law enforcement officer. I worked for
the Clerk of the House of Representatives for twenty-five years and
consequently know the legislative process very well. Now I feel that I can
contribute some of that knowledge back by being a legislator. In fact, I put
that knowledge to good use last year when I suggested and then worked to get
a bill adopted which protected heating oil pre-buy customers.
In addition to consumer issues, I am also interested in protecting retiree
benefits, health care and our environment.
I met some of you who braved the cold and rain to come vote at the Primary
and I have been going door-to-door to discuss your concerns. If you have any
questions or comments you can contact me at
[email protected]. And I hope you will consider voting for me
along with our two great incumbent candidates, Sally Kelly and Frank Davis
on November 4th.
Dianne Schuett
Letter
Voters in
Chichester:
You have the opportunity to elect Dianne Schuett as your State
Representative. I have known Dianne for more than 20 years, since my time
serving as your state representative. She works hard, understands the needs
of the residents, and will work tirelessly for us. Please join me on
November 4 and vote for Dianne Schuett.

Obituaries
David
Paveglio
Chichester - J. David Paveglio, 71, unexpectedly passed away Saturday,
Oct. 18, 2008, while working on the property of the home he and his son built 25
years ago with his beloved wife of 52 years, Carmelle A. (Roy) Paveglio.
He was born in Concord on Oct. 5, 1937, to James and Phyllis Paveglio. He
graduated from Concord High School in 1955 while also serving in the New
Hampshire Army National Guard.
His many years of service to his country, state and neighbors began when he
enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in 1955. His tour of duty saw the passing of
the Korean War and included military police service, two Medals of Good Conduct
and two promotions, culminating in his duty with the U.S. Army Reserve and an
honorable discharge on Nov. 14, 1960.
While raising a young family of four children with Carmelle, Dave worked at
Sprague Electric. In 1964, Dave began his 31 years of law enforcement service by
joining the ranks of the New Hampshire State Police as a trooper stationed at
Troop D in Bow.
Recognized for his outstanding criminal investigation abilities, he became the
state of New Hampshire's first special investigator for the New Hampshire Bureau
of Title and Anti-Theft in 1968. This assignment resulted in the successful
adjudication of many well-known anti-theft cases and recognition as a leader and
instructor in his field. Dave conducted anti-theft classes at the New Hampshire
Police Standards and Training Council's police academy and is known to have been
one of the longest serving instructors, with more than 100 graduating classes.
Even after leaving 31 years of active, full-time law enforcement, upon his
retirement with the rank of corporal of highway enforcement in 1995, he
continued to be called upon to give his expert opinion throughout the remainder
of his life.
All those who came to know Dave found him to be a loyal friend, respected
colleague or trusted relative. His public service efforts continued in the town
of Chichester as the town's building inspector for 13 years. During this time,
he was also appointed to serve as a member of Concord's Crimeline, responsible
for evaluating and establishing rewards for deserving recipients. He was a
lifetime member of the New Hampshire Retired Police Officer's Association as
well as other civic associations.
Dave leaves behind the pride of his life and the subject of his many years of
devotion, his lovely wife, Carmelle. Together they relied upon strong faith and
family values to put recent illnesses in remission and then continued to
strengthen their bond through daily walks at the Steeplegate Mall, attendance
together at Sunday Mass, and pride in watching the many athletic and academic
achievements of their eight grandchildren. Recently, they braved the passing of
their cherished Springer spaniel, Jake, who will be laid to rest with Dave.
In addition to his wife, Carmelle (Roy) Paveglio, he leaves his four children,
Suzanne Williams and her husband, Dale Williams, of Canterbury, Jo-Ann Mulligan
and her husband, Robert Mulligan, of Concord, D. Michael Paveglio and his wife,
Sarah, of Chichester, and Robin Paveglio of Concord; his eight grandchildren,
Elisabeth Kopreski and her husband, Marc, Jeffrey Paveglio, a seminarian of the
Diocese of Manchester, Megan Williams, Tristan Williams, Emily Mulligan, Jim
Paveglio, Rachel Gridley and Michael Mulligan; his sisters, Carol Dawson of
Melbourne, Fla., and Ruth Sweet; brothers, Robert Paveglio and Richard Paveglio
of Concord; and many nieces and nephews.
A Mass of Christian burial will be held Wednesday, October 22, 2008, at 10:30
a.m. at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, Loudon Road in Concord, followed by
a graveside service at Blossom Hill Cemetery.
Memorial donations may be made to the Knights of Columbus Concord Council, 112
Seminarian Fund, c/o George Weber, 52 Bradley St., Concord 03301; or to the
Hundred Club of New Hampshire, P.O. Box 23, Manchester 03105 (supporting the
families of police officers and firefighters killed in the line of duty).
Bennett Funeral Home of Concord is in charge of arrangements.
