We would like to thank all who were present to us during John's illness, his death and at the time following his death.

The support was so overwhelming that it would be impossible for us to personally thank all of the people who touched us by their concern and care. We would like, however, to attempt to thank these people and express in a general way how deeply we have been touched. We would like to thank the people who SO generously gave of their time and vehicles transporting John for his treatment. The medical care he received at the Medical Center of Vt. was comprehensive in serving his emotional needs as well as his physical needs.

The nursing staff and doctors were always caring and deserve to be commended, especially Dr. Dickerman and Dr. Donlan. Dr. Chip was also very supportive not only to John but to everyone of us.

He was always there with great gentleness and care. There was a constant flow of food to the house from the beginning of John's illness. We thank all who were so considerate in providing nourishment over such an extended period of time. We would also like to thank all those who organized, donated, and served the dinner following the funeral. It was an appeciated opportunity to 1 be all together and share a meal.

The funeral mass was an uplifting experience for us. The number of people in attendance and the expression of love for John helped us to celebrate John's union with his God. We thank Fr. Ziter for making us feel welcome and at home. We wish to thank Fr.

Mike Jacques for making the funeral so personal. We realize this was possible because of the deep friendship he shared with John and all of us. The music also added to the beauty and uniqueness of the celebration. For this we thank Janet, Donna, and Diane. Finally, we would like to thank all those who sent personal notes of support, spiritual bouquets and donations to charities.

We appreciate the ongoing growth of the scholarship fund. All the support, care and concern from so many loving people made this difficult experience easier. We have been blessed not only by John's life but also in his passing. Bob Doris Raleigh family. Professional Announcements Jeffrey W.

time in a year, school officials have had to postpone a special election because proper procedures were not followed. School District Clerk Leonard H. Branch failed to post three checklists when he posted the legal warnings for a June 21 vote, according to interim Superintendent Ted Whalen. The board has agreed to hold the new special vote July 6, Whalen said. Voters approved three money issues, including the $3.8 million school budget, during the annual school district meeting in April.

A group of residents, led by Daniel I. Fitzgerald of North Road, filed three petitions asking for reconsideration of each issue. The other issues approved in April were $50,000 for computers and software and $36,152 for energy conservation. Whalen acknowledged the delay will mean the school district will begin the 1983-84 fiscal year July 1 without any funds approved by voters. Last June the School Board had to postpone a special meeting after the district failed to comply with three pre-vote requirements, absentee ballots be available 20 days before the vote and that sample ballots be posted 10 days before a vote.

Branch said Friday night he posted three checklists, along with five legal warnings, earlier that day SO the district would comply with the law. Branch said outgoing Superintendent Michael A. Nason had failed to post the checklists. School Commissioner Charles Hurley said posting the checklists and warnings is the responsibility of Branch, the school district clerk. Hurley said he was asked whether the checklists were posted and when Chairman James Rowley was told they were not, the board voted to postpone the election.

Whalen said a pre-vote informational meeting will be held the night of July 5 at the high school. School Commissioner Richard Pepin declined comment, referring questions Friday to Rowley, who was unavailable for comment. Also unavailable for comment was the fourth board member, Peter J. Garon.

"Would you bail me out?" "You betcha I would, you betcha." The stooped woman in her flowered print dress reached over to hug her mailman. "'We're gonna miss you, Reg. We're gonna miss you." He left only after promising a return visit for tea or snack. Wilcox has been the full-time rural mail carrier for the last years. He was a substitute for 34 years.

Carrying the mail seems to run in his family's blood. His father, Clyde, was Cambridge's mailman for 41 years, ending in 1960. Wilcox also has a postmaster sister, Jennie and two mailmen uncles, Herbert and Bert Burns. The 70 miles of mailboxes that Wilcox covered alone used to be done by three men in the horse and buggy days. His father started delivering in used a horse until the late' 1930s.

In the winter, even after a car was available, mail usually was brought by horse and sleigh. Wilcox said when he was 14 and 15 he used to help his father in the spring.
