Before heading out to their senior prom,Salem High couples lined up for a Grand Marchfor family and friends on Saturday, May 16Couples as well as groups of friends showed oftheir outfits on the red carpet as they marchedpast flashing cameras and phones. At the end ofthe march, they climbed into their cars, busses,and limos to head off to prom.

SHS Grand March Offers a Moment to Shine

by S. Aaron ShamshoyanA new online service offered by town hall could alleviate lines

and save residents time when paying bills.The new service, hosted by Invoice Cloud, will allow residents

to pay property taxes, along with town-provided utility bills online,and offer the payment option of credit card.

Tax collector Cheryl-Ann Bolouk explained the new offering toselectmen on May 18, adding the options could reduce lines attown hall and eliminate them for patrons choosing to pay online.

“The customer is going to be able to view and or print theiractual bill and have the option to pay online,” she said.

The program allows for full and partial payments, schedulingof future payments, and the ability to go paperless and have billsemailed.

Bolouk said there will not be a convenience fee associated withACH and electronic transfers; however, customers wishing to paywith credit or debit cards will see an additional charge.

When paying property tax bills, customers will be charged2.95-percent of the total bill. Utility bill payments will carry a$4.95 fee for every increment of $250 paid.

“They are determined y the online bill collector, which is Invoice

Cloud, for processing the payments,” Bolouk said. “The fee is notcontrolled by the Town of Salem nor paid by the Town of Salem.

And already customers are using the service. Bolouk said afteronly an hour online, two customers registered and paid bills.

Finance Director Jane Savastano demonstrated the service bylogging into Selectman Patrick Hargreaves and Selectman EverettMcBride’s accounts and paying their utility bills during the meeting.

Bolouk said the service cost $2,500 to buy and requires a $100monthly maintenance fee paid by the town.

There are currently about 12,000 tax bills and 8,000 utility billsprocessed through the town hall. Bolouk said she hoped the onlineservice would reduce lines at town hall as there is currently astaffing shortage due to illness.

Town Manager Keith Hickey said the service has been addedto other online offerings already in place including dog licenses,motor vehicle renewals, and recreation department programregistration.

“We’re trying to expand the online services to the best of ourability,” he said.

Hargreaves was excited about the online offerings. “Welcome tothe 21st century,” he said.

Selectman Everett McBride asked if credit and debit cards wouldbe used as payment within town hall.

Bolouk said challenges from credit card companies, specificallyVISA, created a challenge to offer the service both online and inperson.

“It’s a whole other issue, another step to purchase the software,”she said. “I won’t ever be taking credit card over the counter.”

Bolouk said different fee charges from card companies meanincreased processing time, and create delays. She said some othercommunities that take credit cards at the town hall have taken thatoption off the website. Bolouk added two computers and an ATMwere available in town hall for residents to use for bill pay.

McBride questioned whether building permits could be requestedonline, and Hickey said additional online services were beingexplored.

“It’s a work in progress, and, as with any new product, there willbe bumps along the way,” Bolouk said.

The new offerings are available on the town’s website under theonline services tab.

Salem P.D. Honors their own with Memorial

by Jay HobsonOn a clear Thursday morning, May 16, the Salem Police

Department held its annual memorial to officers who have left thebonds of this life. The ceremony was held at the Police Memorial atPine Grove Cemetery and was a way to remember those who gaveSalem service and protection with dedication, pride and courage.

Deputy Chief Shawn Patten noted the recent passing of SheriffMike Downing and, with heads bowed in a moment of silence,birds chirped in the quiet of the cemetery; those who served Salembehind the small shield and who wore the blue o f Salem’s finest wereremembered with the reading of their names.

Chief Paul Donovan spoke of how in the past, police were referredto as ‘pigs,’ but, for the most part, officers were respected as being

there to help.“It’s a tough time now where police are judged guilty by peoplewho haven’t seen all the evidence,” Chief Donovan said.

Town Manager Keith Hickey read a proclamation from the board

of selectmen which read in part, “Whereas themen and women of the law enforcement agency of

Salem, New Hampshire, unceasingly provide a vitalservice, now therefore the board of Selectmen callupon all citizens ... to observe the week of May 10to May 16, 2015, as Police Week.”

2015 Roll of Honor as read: Joseph H. Grant, Robert Stickney, John Hyatt,

Basil S. Munson, Gerald Cooper, Andrew Murray,Roger Thompson, James W. Taylor, Nelson Murray,Paul Ring, William Breen, James Keith, John Carrol,Wayne Gartside, Edgar Valley, Bernard Spinney,Theodore Anagnos, Syren “Chuck” Hovanian, NedLagana Charles W. Keen, Dominic S. Jacobellis,

Joseph W. Millington, Raymond M. Taylor, Edward“Ed” Costello, Harvey Durgin, Gordon Barton, Paul

J. Cody, Leon A. Dobson, Wilfred Colle, DonaldBoland, Daniel L. Bodwell, Jim Mahoney, Sr.,Edward Seubert, Wilfred Taylor, Oscar Barton, MarkSambataro, Frederick L. Chrysler, Jerry Davies,Michael Morse, Leo Tatoyian, George L. Dickey,John Canty, William Barron ,Joseph P. Oakes,Philip D. Hajjar, Everett Dowe, Richard McDonald,

Donald LeBlanc, John P. Ganley, William F.Campbell, John Frank Callahan, Albin A. Dietrich,Robert Eyssi, Edward Dube, Ernest J. Paul, LeeRichardson, James J. Fox III, George A. Gartside,

John Packard, Alfred K. Sullivan, William J. Sullivan,Evelyn Ebert, James Ross, Kenneth Conlon, JosephL. Dunlap, Craig Waldron, Edwin A. Foss, John P.Dutch Holland, Thomas Sharpe III, Shirley Begg,

Warren Ebert, Normand E. Beland, Forrest C. Stickney,Sr., Robert Pearson, Michael W. Downing, Sr., Richard Southwick,Melvin Marsh, Warren George, and William Cornwell.

It is sad that with the passage of time more of the names arerecognizable.

It should well be remembered that the men and women of theSalem Police, though not military, fight a war. Every day, that war isevident with the recent slayings of police in the line of duty aroundthe nation.

Daily, officers get a call on a radio and rush to the scene, whethertraffic accident, domestic disturbance or a crime in progress, andthey often don’t know what awaits them when they arrive.

But they go. They respond with no questions asked and rely on

their training to protect and to serve the citizens who depend onthem to do just that: protect and serve.

Thank you, officers, for your service.

Salem Memorial Day

Remembering those who fought to preserve our liberties

by S. Aaron Shamshoyan“These men and women support our ability to live freely,” said

Senate President Chuck Morse (R-Salem), guest speaker at Salem’sMemorial Day ceremony in Veterans Common.

The memorial held Monday morning remembered the town’s

fallen heroes, with Morse speaking about the meaning of the dayand the public servants who risk their lives daily.“Many seek to work in the community they call home,” he said

noting police and firefighters. “They seek the responsibility ofcaring for our communities.”

Morsesaid manyof theseservantswereveteransreturningfrom warseeking tocontinuetheirservice.

“Theyfight topreserve theliberties that

we enjoyevery day,”he said.“We arefortunatethat theState

of NewHampshirehas been

home to many.”Morse spoke about High Sheriff Michael Downing who passed

away in April after a long fight with cancer.“Mike fought for countless causes over the years but began his

career in the U.S. Army,” Morse said. “Mike dedicated his life topublic service.”

Morse said after the Army, Downing served as a state trooper,Salem police officer, state representative, New Hampshire senator,and ran for sheriff of Rockingham County and was elected to twoterms.

“He said it was important to give back in any way,” Morse said

about Downing. ‘On this day we continue to send our prayers toMike and his family for the struggles they have endured.”

Morse said Memorial Day was a time to remember all veteransand those currently serving.

“Today it is important we remember the true meaning ofMemorial Day,” he said.

Make Sure to be Heard by Elected Officialsby Paula Faist MS, LSW,

Silverthorne Adult Day Center Do you have any suggestions on how we oldfolks can get more money and services? Phil,Salem

Yikes, Phil this is a loaded question! There areso many folks, young and old, that are in needof services and help. Yet there is only so muchmoney to go around. I believe seniors are often

forgotten. Seniors tend to have a soft and not

always heard voice. Many seniors were broughtup to value self-reliance and not expect externalsupport systems. The Depression Era and yearsthereafter, taught seniors this. However, nowthat many seniors have needs, they may ignorethem. They may see the problems their childrenand grandchildren have in this economy and mayspend time and money on their families concerns,

instead of thinking

about their own.The individualswe have electedneed to hear thesoft spoken voicesof seniors. You, aswell as your adultchildren, needto increase yourpolitical activism.

This can be done in so many ways. Continuereading the Salem Community Patriot tobecome aware of when your local or federalrepresentatives will be in the area. Go to thesegatherings to make your point known. A two-minute comment can say a lot to those we haveelected.

If you or your children cannot get to meetings,

then a phone call or

an email in which youvoice your concerns isanother way to be heard.

AARP and the Councilon Aging may be groupsyou will also want tocontact. It is difficultsharing the limitedmonies the state of NHreceives through taxes,

but seniors need to strongly vocalize their feelings,concerns, and suggestions to all elected officials.

Paula Faist, MS, LSW, is president of the NH Adult Day Services Association and programdirector of Silverthorne Adult Day Center.Please continue sending questions to [email protected].

“ Enterprise Bank takes an active interest in our business. I see them as a valuable business partner, not a bank.

”- Joe Barbone | Owner, Methuen Construction

With their continuing efforts to expand their construction territory and

enhance operational capabilities, Methuen Construction and its affiliate

company, Summit Metal Fabricators, needed a bank they could rely on

not only for exceptional products, but also a close, trusted relationship.

Owner Joe Barbone says that partnering with Enterprise Bank is one

of the best business decisions he has made. As the company prepares

to move to a new location and undergo a major building renovation, the

Commercial Lending Team at Enterprise has been by their side, enabling

the company to quickly procure the property and begin renovations.

by Bob GibbsThe students of The Music Workshop of Salem took to the

stage for a spring show at Granite United Church. The Rockthe House event is a spotlight for the student musicians of TheMusic Workshop.

Students range in age from nine to adults. All of theperformers take instruction at The Music Workshop, locatedat 379 South Broadway. Sheila Byrne, owner of The MusicWorkshop, believes the show is a way of supporting live music.

This spring’s recital was once again held at the GraniteUnited Church, One Sand Hill Road in Salem. The church isequipped with a stage, great lighting and sound equipment,and a control booth. The musicians get a true professionalexperience of performing to a live audience, and parents get tosee that the lessons and practice time has truly paid off.

The students that performed were trained by their individualinstructors at the studio. Musicians are then grouped withother student musicians to rehearse the numbers that they willperform. Many of the students perform in multiple groups andplay a variety of types of music and instruments. Along withthe other students, the instructors often play along with theirstudents.

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?“Thumbs down to Salem Town officials . You

must not know what is going on with all the

commercial truck traffic using Bluff St all day longit worst then living at an airport. These trucksare hauling in what and they are dumping at thatsketchy looking sandpit on Shannon Rd is thisstuff they are hauling in tested for chemicals?These trucks are going through a residentialneighborhood all day. Also these trucks arepounding a red listed bridge on Town Farm Road.Take off your blinders do something about itbefore the bridge gives out.

“Thumbs up to voting down the multi-milliondollar military complex. But here comes ‘the restof the story.’ A whole new police fleet. Staffingincreases. And cost increases. Gee, who wouldhave guessed that? These Selectmen can’t spendour money fast enough.

“Thumbs down. As an elderly person I wasshocked to watch and listen to the Michael Lyonsanti-elderly dissertation during the planningboard. At the May 12 meeting at the 1:06:21mark of the Salem TV video hestates the following regardingSenior Housing; ‘Time to claimvictory on Senior Housing,’ ‘Wehave gone far enough with thisstuff,’ and ‘We’ve got enough.’My rebuttal to you Lyons is thatwe elderly have had enough ofyou with these kinds of rants.You along with your spendaholicteammate Keller are wastingand squandering the tax dollarswe already send to the Town ofSalem. I expect, no I demand, apublic apology from you and inthe future button your lip aboutthe elderly. Thumbs down until you do.

“Thumbs down to the person that is running abusiness out of his home. I thought it was illegalto do this in a residential neighborhood. Do youeven have a license? The property looks like a

junk yard with all the storing of supplies. It bringsdown the property value in the neighborhood.Please get rid of it.

“Thumbs up to Selectman Keller. Many inSalem are simply jealous of his intelligence. Atleast he isn’t a high school dropout like one of ourselectmen. His vision for Salem will bring moreindustry and a better tax base. Now we have

trailer parks everywhere which lower propertyvalues and make Salem look trashy. Plus the

residents of these trailer parks pay little in propertytaxes meaning people with homes without wheelshave to pay more. Don’t blame James Keller; hehas vision and a good brain.

“Thumbs down. It’s time for Rockingham Park’shead of security to go. He shouldn’t be working;he’s aggravating the patrons and gamblers andcausing a lot of trouble at Rockingham Park. Idon’t like to go there any more because of him. I

think it’s time to get rid of himand time to get new help upthere.

“Thumbs up/Thumbs down.Why does the gentleman wholives next door to the schoolthrow his multiple bags of trashaway in the school’s dumpsters?He’s been doing this for yearsand no one stops him. He

should be paying for his owntrash removal.

“Thumbs down. A big thumbsdown to the NH DOT for not

constructing a sound barrier wall on 93 northfrom the Massachusetts border to the rest area.Since the widening of 93 the traffic noise has beenhorrendous due to the removal of so many trees.I live three streets over and can see the highwayand cars from my kitchen window. We cannothave our bedroom windows open at night due tothe noise. I see these barriers up and down thehighway and don’t understand what the problemis in putting one at this location. Thumbs down towhoever is in charge to making this decision.

“Thumbs up/Thumbs down. The United StatesSupreme Court has heard the arguments for andagainst the redefinition of marriage. They will givean opinion in June, 2015. Marriage between oneman and one woman is natural and the bedrockof a stable society. Please pray for the justices ofthe Supreme Court, Chief Justice Roberts, JusticesKennedy, Brayer, Sotomayer, Kagan, Ginsberg,Alito, Scalia and Thomas that they will findtraditional marriage to be for the good of children

and society.

“Thumbs down. After watching the marathonboard of selectmen’s meeting under newChairman Keller, a meeting that lasted 4 1/2

hours, I recommend that a name change is inorder. Call them the pandemonium committee as

nothing of import was accomplished. Lots of bluffand bluster though, not particularly impressive.

“Thumbs down to the Salem Board ofSelectmen. In Derry they areactually cutting town costs (hownovel is that) while our electedcome up with multimilliondollar safety complexes andInnovation Districts. Oh that’sright; they do not have a JimmyKeller. The visionary that makesa difference to our tax bills.

“Thumbs down. Just imaginethe City of Nashua is cuttingtheir operating costs. This alongwith Derry doing the same ismighty embarrassing for ourTown Manager Mr. Hickey.Do you think Mr. Keller the

Chairperson of the Selectmenwill jump on board this idea?I really doubt that the $23million visionary of the safetycomplex man could actuallytake the property tax payersinto consideration. Visionaries like Keller needmillions of dollars to complete their agenda. Sothumbs down!

“Thumbs down to the Salem PD for doingnothing about fireworks in this town. I’m usuallya supporter of the department, but after cominghome from a nice quiet evening in a neighboringtown to the barrage of fireworks at 9:30 at nightI’m disappointed. My kids have come in my roomthree times already. Do something; it can’t be thathard to find out where they are coming from.

“Thumbs up. Many thanks tothe gentleman who shut off the

escalator at Rockingham Mallwhen my wife fell and then hehelped her to stand up.

“Thumbs up/Thumbs down.The United States SupremeCourt Justices prepare torender a decision on same sexmarriages. Marriage has alwaysbeen between one man and onewoman as instituted in Genesis.

“Thumbs down to theuneducated person who in theMay 15 edition of the Patriot blamed the problemsthat exist in this country on the Republicans whohave disregarded God’s teachings. Several yearsago, a very smart man indicated that senatorsand representatives needed to have term limits.Boy was he ever right. Please be advised: fiveof the largest cities in this country have the

worst education standings, economic standings,average incomes, crime rate, welfare status,unemployment figures. One of these cities hasfiled for bankruptcy and another is on the brink.No one is answering to where the money) has

gone to. By the way, all had Democratic mayorsfor the past 45-plus years. Instead of writing

letters, perhaps you should do some research.FDR must be twirling in his grave. Welfare wassupposed to help, not go on for generation aftergeneration.

“Thumbs up / Thumbs down. What is happeningwith the railroad ties? Do you know they havebeen proven to be ‘bad’ for the environment(cancer causing problem)? Yes, it was on TV onan ‘Environmental program’ along with laminatedflooring, etc. This was proven by the E-Protectionsprograms. So there they lay all over RockinghamPark where maybe a restaurant may possibly bebuilt? Are you kidding? You have that money anda lot of help getting rid of them and you know it.It’s disgraceful! Do it now! Already the ground inand around them has been contaminated!
