Happy Birthday to Michele Cronin.  She came from Everett, but makes her home in Stoughton. She's mom to Kyle, Brett and Samantha Cronin.

Also, Happy 12th Birthday to Jordan Lazarian, from her parents Kim Aronson Lazarian and Ari Lazarian. Her mom's birthday is next week. 

BUFFY NEEDS OUR HELP: Our friend Mike Mutascio has lost his dog. Her name is Buffy, and she's 14 years old. She is an all black lab/greyhound mix with white around her mouth and on her chest. She was let out at 6:00 a.m. Sunday morning (3/6) at Pleasant and Central Streets and was gone by 6:05. Buffy has been a part of Mike's family for well over a decade and her disappearance is a hard hit.

He's hoping that whoever may have taken her in to perhaps shelter her from the rain will contact the proper authorities and see that she is returned home to her family.  (Email Mike through dukesabre1@yahoo.com or contact About Town via pmpco@aol.com) if you see her. Please help!

Wayne Legge, recently featured in a Boston Globe South article, will present his collection of artifacts, including arrowheads, oxen shoes, children’s toys, pipe stems, china, and bottles which he has found during 27 years of digging on his own property on the West Bridgewater-Easton line.  Individuals are invited to bring in and share items, which they have dug up in their back yards. 

Local musicologist Roger Hall will give a brief presentation on Stoughton composer and town benefactor E. A. Jones, who died one hundred years ago. 

New on display will be a model of the Titanic, built many years ago and recently donated by Joseph Macaluso.  Stoughton businessman George Quincy Clifford was lost in that disaster 99 years ago next month.
