Letter
Our sincere thanks go out to Dick Frambach and his cadre of
volunteers for their work on Epsom’s Historic Meetinghouse. We
strongly support ongoing renovations to the building. We need to
make sure this wonderful resource becomes a usable space for the
town and hope that the voters will recognize its potential for town
offices. We also hope the town will authorize the requested $25,000
to continue the work.

Wesley Demers Benefit Dinner
Wesley Demers has been a resident of Epsom, NH for almost 60 years.
He is a fuel delivery driver for Irving Oil and Propane. He has been
delivering the same route for almost 40 years.
Wesley was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called Osteosarcoma,
in early 2011. In July 2011, he had surgery to remove the cancer.
The doctors told him the outlook was good.
Unfortunately, Wesley found out shortly before Thanksgiving that the
cancer has come back and is very aggressive. Before Wesley got sick,
his wife, Darbie, was running a daycare from home which she has had
to stop doing so she can take care of Wesley. Wesley has been out of
work since his surgery and living off of his short term disability.
Wesley is a wonderful and caring person who would give everything
and anything he could to help out family, friends or neighbors.
Because of this, many of his friends and family had decided to get
together to have a benefit dinner.
The Benefit Dinner was held on January 28, 2012 at the American
Legion in Epsom - Post 112. It was a huge success. We would like to
thank everyone who donated, participated, planned and/or sponsored
this event.
All the money from the dinner went straight to Wes and his wife
Darbie to help pay medical bills and other living expenses.
If you were unable to attend the dinner and would like to make a
donation please send it to:

To my constituents in Allenstown, Epsom, and Pittsfield:
This week the House met to finally finish 2011 bills. HB445, on the
regulation of electronic tracking devices, had been recommended to
be studied further. But the sponsor convinced us that we should ban
tracking people via cell phones, GPS devices, or mobile computers,
without their permission, before there was a problem. We voted
158-183 against killing it, then 293-53 to amend it slightly, and
passed it on to the committee on Criminal Justice. HB138, on the
cold case homicide unit, kept the unit active, but required the
department to fund it with gifts, grants, and unspent funds from
other operations. It passed, 254-93; I voted against it because this
unit should be funded honestly and openly. HB574, repealing the post
9/11 law that allows taking of private property during a state of
emergency, passed 257-87. HCR2, supporting the Arizona immigration
law, passed 243-102 with even the Speaker choosing to vote in favor
of the bill.
My committee met to hear HB1378, exempting pharmacy technicians from
the laws on drug possession, which was amended to clarify the law
and HB1379, creating a committee to study increased regulation,
which was recommended to be killed as there is no demonstrable need
for it. HB1316, on continuing education for electricians, revealed a
timing problem between license renewals and code updates, so it went
to subcommittee to work out the details. HB1317, on certifying
electricians as fire alarm installers, was recommended for interim
study since there were conflicts between the fire officials and the
electricians testifying, so we’ll have to sort them out. HB1142,
pulling the electricians’ board out of the Fire Marshal’s office,
went to subcommittee to sort out the best policy choices.
Interested readers can email me for my newsletter, which has more
details than I can fit in a letter.
