In other news...

Congratulations to Amie Edwards for passing her Series 7 exam. For those of you who have taken it, you know it is VERY tough. And, I'm sure juggling 3 toddlers and a demanding full-time job adds a whole other element to it all. Congratulations, Amie!!!

Jenny Rasking turns the big 4-0!!! Happy Birthday, Jenny. Hope you had a great day.

These are the only updates I have for now, but please send them along so we can share the news with everyone.

FYI - Jon and Jenny have set up a family tree on Geni. If you join and fill in your "branches", you can get updates on anniversaries, birthdays, etc. for everyone in your tree. I did it which is why I knew about Jenny's big day.

Hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving! I know we will all be thinking of each other as we always do during the holidays. Gobble, gobble...

Should have, could have, would have...




You will never hear that from this man.

Congratulations, David.



Family reception Dec. 28, LaCantina Restaurant, 911 Waverly Street, Framingham at 6 pm. RSVP Ann, Kelley or Shelley by Dec. 12th.

Remembering Elisabeth Dennett

From Pam - The following is to appear in the "Sandpiper", the Sagamore Beach newsletter.


Remembering Elisabeth Dennett

For over 50 years Elisabeth Dennett welcomed families to Dennetts' Cottages on Phillips Rd. Spring, Summer and Fall. She and her husband Jim built their first two cottages in the late forties and had finished their eighth by the mid fifties. Jim died in 1990 after a long illness but Elisabeth lived on into her 102nd year. She continued to stay at "The Office" (#320) a major part of each summer until 2003.

On April 25, 2009 Elisabeth's family, friends and neighbors from Plympton and Sagamore Beach gathered at the Plympton Congregational Church to celebrate her long life. The church bell tolled 102 times in her honor on that fine spring day. Linda Sheldon who lives year round at #321 spoke for the hundreds of families who have enjoyed summer vacations at Dennetts' Cottages for over five decades. She read from a note Bernice Nealon, the mother of eight children, wrote on the back of a photo taken of Jim and Elisabeth in front of their cottage.

"Jim and Elisabeth - our dear friends who preside so gracefully and graciously over that enchanted acre at Phillips Road where we were so fortunate to spend precious weeks each year for a decade. To each and every one of us Sagamore was not just a place but a way of life."
Pam Nealon Langenbach and her husband Jim, current president of the beach association, enjoy summers with their daughters and grandchildren at #327. Four generations at Sagamore Beach! Not unusual and such a tribute to Elisabeth and Jim.
