Tell Us Your Good Deed

Just about everything I do is about family and children. As a Grandfather and Photographer, I have seen the struggles of others and try to donate all the time I can to organizations such as "Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep" and the "March of Dimes". The best reward is to see the smiles and feel the emotions of the families I have come to know and help along the way.

Why are you participating?

I do not like to advertise everything I do to help others. The smiles and positive emotions that have resulted are the best rewards. However, the world can be a difficult place at times and needs a place to turn to.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I volunteer for The Hanover Theatre, am the Chairman of our condo trustees. I volunteer for many other organizations, and support the Veterans shelter in Worcester. I finished my son and daughter-in-law's basement, including a full bathroom

Why are you participating?

This is an interesting endeavor. It will be interesting to see the final mural for The Hanover Theatre and see all the volunteers pictures.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

Since I have retired, I am starting to volunteer at various places in order to do things that I have not had time to do while pursuing my career. One place I volunteer is at a clothing ministry where clothing and other various household goods are given to the needy. More good deeds to follow now that I have the time to spend.

Why are you participating?

As a volunteer at the Theater, one night the photographer was taking pictures and was asked if I would like to be part of this event - so I said yes and here I am.

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I rented a mini van and took my brother and his wife, my daughters and a friend down to Florida to surprise my mother for her 60th birthday...she told me that it was the best thing anyone could have done and she will remember it always.

Why are you participating?

I think we as people need to take a step back and think about how we treat each other and this may be a tool to look at ourselves to see how good we are doing...help us get rid of the evil negativity in our life.
