Friedland, Jeffrey 1987
Gagliano, Anthony
Gaines, Richard M. - Born in Boston, Massachusetts on Mar. 20, 1944 -
Departed on Jun. 9, 2013 and resided in Gloucester, MA. On many a
morning, Richard Gaines would walk through the front doors of the
Gloucester Daily Times, exchange a few brief hellos, and then walk
briskly to his desk in the far left corner of the newsroom, sit down and
make the first of what would seem like hundreds of phone calls. "I'm
going to cause some trouble today," he'd proclaim. He would mouth those
words with both a twinkle in his eye and a profound sense of pride. For
Gaines, gone suddenly at 69 after being found dead in his swimming pool
Sunday, relished causing trouble for officials and others who had
wrongly caused trouble for residents — and especially, in recent years,
for Gloucester's, New England's and the nation's fishermen. A 40-year
journalist — primarily covering Statehouse and Gloucester City Hall
politics — and an 11-year veteran of the Gloucester Daily Times, Gaines
was remembered Monday by state and local officials and especially by
fishermen and advocates for the industry for his persistent and
expansive coverage of fishery issues once he jumped into a coverage beat
created at the Times in 2008. "The fishermen — Gloucester fishermen and
fishermen everywhere — have lost a real, true friend," said longtime
City Councilor John "Gus" Foote, who dealt with Gaines for years on City
Hall issues and paid a visit to the Times Monday to extend condolences
on Gaines' passing. "We didn't always see everything eye-to-eye, but we
respected each other. He was a good, good man." Gaines, who grew up in
Newburgh, N.Y., but whose family were regular summer visitors to
Gloucester, honed his skills and passion for journalism as Statehouse
reporter with United Press International in the 1960s and '70s. A
graduate of Trinity College in Hartford, Conn., he then moved on to
serve as political writer and later as editor-in-chief at The Boston
Phoenix from 1979 through 1989, when, under his leadership, the
alternative publication carved out a niche in investigative political
coverage, placing as a runner up for a Pulitzer Prize for national
reporting. Along the way, he also authored a book profiling then-Gov.
Michael Dukakis' rise to challenge then-Vice President George Bush in
the 1988 presidential election. The book, titled "Dukakis: The Man Who
Would Be President," drew a lot of attention and sold well in paperback
form, Gaines' wife, Nancy, recalled Monday. He then shifted to political
consulting, working with a U.S. Senate run by James Rappaport, who
challenged then-Sen. John Kerry in 1990. And he moved to Florida,
working on a congressional campaign and both journalistic and marketing
projects there before returning to the Boston area. He joined the staff
of the Times in 2002, covering City Hall and other local political
races, including for state offices, Congress and U.S. Senate. In
addition to his wife, he leaves a son Benjamin of Utah, a daughter
Rachel of Boston, three grandchildren, and his stepsons, Eric Pomerene
of Holbrook and Samuel Pomerene of Dennis. "Richard's legacy should be
about putting a spotlight on rights and wrongs and of encouraging and
giving others the courage the do the same, whether they be bureaucrats,
politicians, young aspiring writers — or just simply fishermen," she
said. "I will truly miss Richard, the self-righteous warrior who would
mount his white horse of social justice not with the sword but with the
pen trying to keep all things equal and honest." "Richard embodied a
passion for robust local coverage and his daily stories will be deeply
missed," state Attorney General Martha Coakley said Monday in sending
her condolences to Gaines' family and to the Times. "His outstanding,
in-depth reporting on the fishing industry will serve as a lasting
contribution to the Gloucester community, the commonwealth, and the
nation." "One of my lasting memories of Richard came in the fall of 2011
during an early Saturday morning press conference in Gloucester," Brown
wrote in an email to the Times. "... As I looked out to the crowd, I saw
Richard standing there, wearing a flannel jacket, notebook and pen in
hand," he added. Members of the community and elected officials came up
and greeted him warmly, aware they were standing in the presence of an
advocate and a friend of the fishing profession that meant so much to
all of them." In September 2010, Gaines and the Times were honored with
the Offshore Mariners' Wives "Friends of the Fishermen" awards,
presented annually in conjunction with that city's Blessing of the
Fleet. It marked the first time that the award — whose past winners
included then-Mayor Lang and Congressman Barney Frank — had ever gone to
a journalist, and Gaines, who shunned awards and any recognition, was
clearly touched. Richard said "I consider this award the highest and
most gratifying in my 42 years of scribbling, trying to decipher what's
happening to our civilization and giving readers a series of stories
that can be read as a narrative to help them decide what to do about
it," he told about 100 in New Bedford's State Fish Pier that day. "This
is my Pulitzer Prize — and I will cherish it always. "We row as best we
can against that tide," Gaines said, referring to the fishing industry
and the Times' coverage of it. "Inspired by Gloucester's great
fisherman, Howard Blackburn, we will row until the oars rot away — then
we'll paddle with our hands."

Kendra, Edward
Thomas born in West Point, New York, the only son of Gertrude and Steve
Kendra, left this life on November 26, 2012, at the age of sixty-nine,
after giving his best in the service of others. A graduate of St.
Patrick's High School & Newburgh Free Acadmy in Newburgh, New York,
Edward served his country in the United States Army with pride and
distinction. After leaving the military Ed enjoyed a long career with
IBM in Fishkill, New York, Raleigh, North Carolina and Boca Raton,

Extremely adept in administrative management yet equally adept in
mechanical and related operations, Edward enjoyed a varied career
following his retirement from IBM, most recently using his many talents
and energy providing maintenance services at the Mirror Lake community
in Boynton Beach Fl. It was during this time that God decided that Ed’s
earthly work was complete and called him home. Edward died on the job,
in support of others. And as his final act of service, Edward donated
his organs to the University of Miami Medical Center. Edward’s greatest
loves were for his faith, for his family, and most especially for his
son Michael Edward. Edward is also survived by his sister Frances
Finkelstein, nephew Eugene Kessler and nieces Elizabeth Farina and
Christine Kessler. He will be missed greatly by all. The family will
hold a private viewing. Interment will be with military honors in the
Veterans South Florida National Cemetery, Boynton Beach, Florida. May he
rest in peace. Amen.

Paffendorf, Sally P. Lyman left this world Dec. 13, 2010, for a better
place, after a long battle with diabetes, renal failure, heart failure
and oh, heck you name it. Because of the excellent care she received
throughout the years from Dana Green of St. Joseph Hospital and from the
wonderful staff at Boyd Dialysis Center, she was able to live longer and
was able to enjoy her grandchildren for many extra years. Sally was born
March 12, 1944, in Cornwall, N.Y., to Weyant Edward and Jean Doris
(Pallozzo) Paffendorf. She graduated Newburgh (N.Y.) Free Academy in
1962 and went to work at the Army Athletic Association, then the data

1967 she moved to Fayette, where Sally and Jim renovated an old
farmhouse and had two children, Barbara, in June 1968, and James
"Jamie," in May 1975. In 1990 they moved to Orland after a labor dispute
at the Jay mill and Jim was hired at the Bucksport mill. For a time
Sally dabbled in journalism. Her articles were printed in the Bucksport
Enterprise about Jamie and our troops in Bosnia and her oped piece about
the problems of getting around Bangor's stores if you are handicapped
was in the Bangor Daily News. She leaves behind her husband of 46 years,
James F. Lyman; daughter, Barbara Lyman Kirby and husband, Matthew, of
North Waterboro; her son, James Thomas Edward Lyman and wife, Samantha,
of Corinth; five grandchildren, Cameron M. Kirby, Evan R. Kirby, James
J. Lyman, Andrew R. Lyman and Victoria L. Lyman; and two cousins, Lester
Brush and wife of Newburgh, N.Y., and Edward J. Paffendorf III and wife
of Rochester, N.Y. Sally always hated dreary funerals, so there will be
a graveside service that will be held in the spring for family and
friends, where everyone will be encouraged to say nice or naughty
things, and a party after to give Sally a rousing send off. No grieving
please. God will provide all she wants. Instead, please donate what you
would have spent on flowers to Humane Society of the U.S., P.O. Box
53137, Phoenix, AZ 95072, Best Friends Animal Society, 5001 Angel Canyon
Road, Kanab, UT 84741, her favorite: Chesapeake Safe Harbor, 113

spend eternity playing in the summer sun. Arrangements are under the
direction of Mitchell-Tweedie Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 28
