My name is Beverly Miganowicz Bartolomeo. I was brought up in Templeton, attended school at Templeton Center and graduated from NRHS. My maiden name was Chipman. My fathers family has been in town for four generations. When I was a kid we had a small farm. It was pretty remote on South Road; three cars went by in a day.
I married John Miganowicz after high school. I have one daughter and two granddaughters of my own. I am now married to Frank Bartolomeo. We have been running a greenhouse operation in Leominster. My husband is the best grower in Worcester County. We sell vegetable plants and bedding plants (flowers) from the end of April to July. John works for us. My daughter does farmers markets in Waltham, MA. We are living on South Road - there is no place like home.
In the early seventies, I was involved with the first concerned citizens group. I worked with Gladys Salame to get her elected as the first woman selectman in the town of Templeton. I ran the Board of Health and served two terms. I probably would not be involved now if the town wasn't such a mess. It is not acceptable for anyone to be treated badly by any town official.
I will give everyone my view from the top of the hill on South Road - everyone is free to agree or disagree.

PIN THE TAIL ON THE DONKEY

With bad government now running rampant in Templeton, who is to blame? In most societies, people choose people to run the business of the community. Some people don't get to choose. Tyrants take over on their own. Sometimes regular and decent folk become the tyrants. Such is the case here. The BOS is a virtual dictatorship run by three selectmen who are in over their heads. They are not qualified to run a dog pound. Do I blame them? No. It is not their fault. They are not qualified, thats all. The fault belongs to the voters who voted for these People. Also at fault are the voters who didn't bother to vote. An old gent told me this awhile back,[ Son,] he said, [You only get the government that you deserve.] PLEASE VOTE WISELY MAY 7. VOTE JULIE FARRELL FOR SELECTMAN
