Oh how I looked forward to reading the Globe! The loss of “localness” is devastating to the community in my opinion. After my mother died 13 years ago I found a tiny obit for my brother who was stillborn and they misspelled my name. I loved looking at who got engaged or married, who bought new homes, who got arrested. Especially I loved little tiny blurbs on the second sports page telling the score of sophomore girls basketball games and seeing how many points my daughter, your classmate Katy Sprau, scored. And those little blurbs are in a scrapbook.
In the big scheme of things it doesn’t matter but the loss of those little history things breaks my heart.
I hope you are finding wonderful things to do with your writing and photography talents.
