Letter

 

On Wednesday, April 4, the Sun carried a short note from Ms. Bonnie Lee Sears thanking the voters of Northwood for re-electing her to the Budget Committee. A nice gesture, and I join her in thanking the voters for re-electing me, also.

 

She went on to thank the voters for re-electing Selectman Bob Holden and School Board member Tim Jandebeur, who are, in her opinion, "both truly the taxpayers friend."

 

This "shout out" gave me pause: who is it that I want to serve? Surely the property tax payers are an important segment of our community. But should I think only of their interests when reviewing the Town and School Budgets? What about the children of the town? What about the non-property-owning residents? What about those who work here, shop here – or are just passing through?

 

Too often we focus narrowly on the concerns of taxpayers and give short shrift to concern for the general good for all our citizens. I hope to avoid that narrow view and look forward to serving all the citizens of Northwood as a member of the Budget Committee.

HLWC News

Submitted By Lucy Silva and Roberta Stearns

 

HLWC had its most successful Reciprocity Tea to date with 32 members of neighboring women’s clubs and our GFWC-NH president, Nancy Greenberg attending. The Coe Brown Northwood Academy music students performed for us. Northwood is so fortunate to have these teens and their teachers in our academy.

 

The May meeting of HLWC will be a tour of the NH State House. Women are asked to meet at the Northwood Congregational Church at 11:45 am on May 1st to car pool to Concord. Please note that the baby shower for Concord Hospital will be held in July.

HLWC is a service organization and a member of General Federation of Women’s Clubs-NH. Its object is to promote sociability and culture and to make itself a power for good in the community. All women in the area are invited to join us.

 


 

Letter To The Editor

 

The really big ship story of April, 2012 is the one hundredth anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic in the North Atlantic in 1912.

 

For some of us older folk here in New Hampshire, the sinking tragedy we remember is the loss of the nuclear submarine USS Thresher, built at the Portsmouth Naval Ship Yard. The sub was launched on July 9, 1960 and commissioned on August 3, 1961.

 

Less than two years later, on April 10, 1963, while undergoing sea trials about 220 miles east of Cape Cod, some mechanical failure occurred, perhaps in the salt water piping system. The Thresher never resurfaced, her remains were later found more than 8,000 feet below the surface. All one hundred twenty-nine lives were lost.

 

One of the men lost in the Thresher that April day in 1963 was a man from Northwood, Lawrence Whitten, age thirty-three, listed in the records as one of thirteen civilians aboard the submarine.

 

Whitten was survived by his wife of a dozen years, Elizabeth, by two young daughters, Ann and Sharron, and by friends and neighbors who have not forgotten that sad time.

 

The Whittens lived at 121 First New Hampshire Turnpike. The owners of that house now are Dan and Kate McNally. Kate has provided the Northwood Historical Society with a folder of information about the Thresher and about the Whittens.
