I became friends with Mishanda"sAunt Elaine in the late 1960s just before she went to work with urban renewal in Hudson. She was selected fot that job due to her compassion, intelligence,

and trust worthiness. I was blessed to meet Elaine's mom, her sisters Donna Lee, Melinda, a d Josie.ss

After the fire on State Street, Elaine (Hazel to me) came by to pick up blankets and bedding. I recall the scent of smoke from the

fire..which immediately made me sad and tearful knowing everything had been lost. Being a native of Hudson, I was a neighbor to Buddy and Ann Martin when they lived in Greenport, as well as John and Pat W who lived down the street. Happiness in knowing these 2 families has been and continues to be a blessing..to me and to our community.I truly enjoyed this article..andseeing Donna's photo w/ her little girl was just wonderful.
