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.

TIME NEVER ENDS

Neither does the BOS chairman. His highness has done it again. He installed a temporary fire chief who may become the full time chief. He may be qualified to fight fires, but he may not be the most qualified for medical services. His highness went against the previous fire cheifs' recommendation of a person with EMT experience. Medical services constitutes the majority of the departments duties. Again, the chairman went against what is best for the residents of Templeton.  Another appointment of a friend over the person with the experience to do the job. I think that is called cronyism. How many residents may be hurt or possibly die while the new chief learns the job? Of course it is only my opinion. Pa Pa Bear
