On a walk last week with my family, we found a turtle in bad shape on the side of the road in North Haven—my kids named it Shelly. The local vet referred us to Turtle Haven in Northford for help.
I want to give a heartfelt Thank You to Turtle Haven and Angelina Carnevale for their incredible work in helping rehabilitate Shelly. They really are dedicated to helping our local wildlife and have genuine compassion!

It was truly an honor to attend the East Haven Rotary Club ‘s Joe Buonome Public Safety Awards last night. The Rotary Club once again hosted a fantastic event, continuing its tradition of uplifting and recognizing the outstanding members of our community.
It was a pleasure to stand alongside Rep. Zullo and Rep. Candelora as we celebrated all the award recipients. I had the privilege of knowing Joe Buonome both personally and professionally, and I am grateful to have known such a remarkable man whose positive impact continues to shape our community for the better.
Congratulations to all of this year’s honorees, and a special thank you to East Haven Superintendent Erica Forti for her dedication to improving our schools.
Most importantly, congratulations to all of the public safety officials who were recognized for their outstanding dedication and service. Your commitment to protecting our community does not go unnoticed.
We truly appreciate the brave men and women of the East Haven Fire and Police Departments. Your sacrifices and service are deeply valued by all of us.
