Jeanette Barron | Obituary - Andover Townsman

After raising her children, Jeanette worked for The Network, and then at H&R Block. Jeanette was a member of the former Sacred Heart Church, Lawrence, Mass., and Saint Michael Parish, North Andover, Mass., where she and Bill helped facilitate the Alpha Program. Jeanette and Bill enjoyed square dancing with the local clubs, and made many life-long friends there. They were married for 46 years, and she deeply missed him after his passing in 2008. For many years, Jeanette was very active at the Andover Senior Center and its many programs. She and Bill belonged to the "Andover Chroniclers," the team who produced the local cable TV show "Something About Andover." Jeanette volunteered for ESL classes, helping her many Chinese friends in attendance. She participated in the Center's many workshops, and lunches. Jeanette loved people, parades, fireworks, animals, concerts, high-school reunions, and "Saturday Morning Coffee" in downtown Andover. She frequented activities at St. Augustine and St. Michael Parishes, and enjoyed inviting others, young and old, to join her. Jeanette often spoke of her friends and fun at the "Senior Link" Program, sponsored by the Free Christian Church, Andover. Jeanette is survived by her three children, Michelle Barron of Andover, Valerie Luque and her husband Norman of Derry, N.H., David Barron of San Jose, Calif.; and her sister Pauline Kulak of Derry, N.H. Our family is grateful to the staff at St. Michael Parish, and at Mass General Hospital for their care and support. COVID-19 restrictions limited attendance to Jeanette's funeral Mass and burial. A Celebration of Life for family and friends will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be s...

Roses for Kobe and Gianna as Lakers return to action - Rome Sentinel

On the overhead video board, photos of Bryant in action for the Lakers alternated with those of the others killed. Longtime public address announcer Lawrence Tanter introduced the Lakers starting lineup as Kobe Bryant. Usher stood at center court of the darkened arena in front of No. 8 and No. 24 yellow rose arrangements to sing “Amazing Grace.” Cellist Ben Hong from the Los Angeles Philharmonic performed while video of Bryant talking about his life and career played. Fans interrupted the silence with chants of “Kobe! Kobe!” and “MVP! MVP!” Boyz II Men, from Bryant’s hometown of Philadelphia, sang the national anthem. “In some ways the whole night did not feel normal,” Vogel said. “This week has been about life more than basketball wins and losses. We’re all just trying to pick ourselves back up.” The crowd stood for 24.2 seconds of silence as the shot clocks ticked off the time until the horn blared. Spotlights shone on the empty seats set aside for Bryant and his daughter. His was a No. 24 jersey and hers was a black-and-white Mamba jersey from her team that Bryant coached. The emotion carried over to halftime when Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth teamed on their poignant hit “See You Again.” After the final notes sounded, Bryant’s name rose up again in chants from the crowd. In the couple of hours leading up to the game there was mostly silence. The electric atmosphere that surges through the arena before NBA games was nowhere to be felt. Media talked quietly among themselves without the usual music playing. Somber ushers took up their positions with black ribbons attached to their purple work shirts. Grief counseling was offered to arena staff and one female usher pulled tissues out of her pocket that had been provided. Inside the Lakers locker room, Bryant’s No. 24 gold jersey hung on a wooden hanger from a fire alarm next to James’ locker. It was Bryant’s locker when he helped the team win five NBA championships during his 20 years in Los Angeles. “He’s been really a tower of strength for all of us,” Vogel said of James. “We’re following his lead.” Back in the arena, Jeff Nadal was among the early arriving fans. Nadal rolled up a giveaway No. 24 T-shirt in his hand and rested his chin on it, staring into space. “It doesn’t really feel like you’re here for a game,” the 26-year-old middle school teacher from Whittier said. “It feels like you’re here for something a lot bigger than that. We didn’t even know the guy, but we feel like we did.” The music began playing once the public flowed through the doors. Several fans donned the gold T-shirts at their seats; others took pictures of the video board and the electronic ribbon scrolling the victims’ names around the upper level. Across the street from Staples Center, large crowds continued to gather for informal public mourning at a plaza loaded with flowers, balloons and hand-written messages, many on the pavement, honoring Bryant and his daughter. Large poster boards covered in signatures and messages were moved to the middle of the blocked off street separating the arena and the LA Live entertainment district. The memorabilia will be collected, inventoried and given to the Bryant family at their request. The flowers will be composted and used in plantings around the arena.

Friendship and Flowers - The Post

F rontman Dave Lawrence of Ready Aim Flowers, an Athens-based, adventure pop band, describes his writing process as “some poetry put to a slightly edgy nursery rhyme melody.” He knows he can change the world with it, too. “I don’t know what else to call it,” Lawrence, the band’s main lyricist, said after his bandmates, Caleb Cole, Jeff Podolski and Steven Rekstad, burst into a fit of laughter as he distilled the band’s vibe to its essence. “And so then, I tend to take the bare-bone skeleton idea or concept, and then these guys make it good.” Lawrence said he met Rekstad while they were playing ultimate frisbee, and they discovered they both possessed the same passion for music. Soon, they were hanging up flyers around Athens, but it didn’t amount to anything. Rekstad, however, met Cole while they were rock climbing. Cole was already friends with Podolski, connecting with him through the video game series Super Smash Bros. “Yeah, we met, what, my sophomore year?...
