Mary O'Neill and Randy Jay surprised with recognition

A carefully orchestrated surprise recognition was conducted before the Franklin Commission on Disability meeting on Thursday, August 7. The meeting was held at the Peter L Brunnelli Community Center (Central Park Terrace).

Mary O'Neill, was taken by surprise with the gathering of more than the Commission members and with the presentations of proclamations by State Rep Jeff Roy and Town Administrator Jamie Hellen.

Among the many things Mary is known for it is her inspiration and persistence that produced the "Kindness Matters" signs seen around town.

Mary was recognized for 14 years leading the Commission

Randy was recognized for 8 years serving as Clerk.
