Francis
Edward "Frank" Moran, 90, was born in West Roxbury to pre deceased Leslie (Palais)
and J. Francis Moran. Frank grew up during the great depression. Having lost
his own father at an early age to the tuberculosis epidemic of the 1920's,
Frank found companionship and mentoring in the Boy Scouts of America. He
received their highest honor, that of Eagle Scout.
He served our country in
WWII in the Battle of Iwo Jima. Upon his return he received a
degree in business from Boston University. His adult life was inspired and
informed by the life of President John Kennedy. He worked most of his life
in management and sales within the liquor industry. After his retirement he
sold real estate in the Needham area. His favorite past time was spending
time with his family, completing the Globe's daily crossword puzzle, as well
as, enjoying a good game of golf. Always a man with great style, Frank lived
in Needham, Manchester By the Sea, and lastly Southborough with his wife of
56 years, Mary Frances (Penny).
He is survived by his devoted wife, four loving children and their families:
his daughter, Susan Moran and husband Hank Mathieu of Hadley, MA, his son,
Sean Moran and wife Ann of Norfolk, MA, his son, Brian Moran and partner
Antoinette Fecteau of Franklin, MA and his daughter, Sheila Coomey and
husband Daniel Coomey of Shrewsbury, MA. He is also survived by seven
cherished grandchildren: Cameron, Gregory and Olivia Mathieu, Christopher
and Kevin Moran, and Erin and Daniel Coomey, His brother, Robert
(predeceased 2005), and is survived by his sister-in-law, Ann Moran and
nephew, Christopher Moran of Sudbury. He also is survived by his
brother-in-law, John Penney and wife Mary of Scituate; sister-in-law,
Patricia (Penny) Allen and her husband Don of Needham as well as other
nieces and nephews.
Frank possessed the rare personal qualities of tenacity and optimism. His
life lessons from childhood resulted in a passionate engagement with all
whom he loved. Frank lived for his wife and children. For that reason he
left this earth on September 28 on the wings of Angels.
He was buried with military honors in the National Cemetery in Bourne, MA. A
private memorial will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations
may be made to the Monastery of St. Clare of Jamaica Plain or the Paralyzed
Veterans Association.
The Britton-Shrewsbury Funeral Home, Shrewsbury is assisting the family with
the arrangements, which are incomplete.

DRIVERS, BRAKE FOR MOOSE AND DEER THIS FALL!
Because
fall is the breeding season for both moose and white-tailed deer, the
Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (DFW) reminds motorists to be mindful
of increased deer and moose activity, especially during early morning
and evening hours. September and October is the peak of the breeding
season for Massachusetts' small but expanding moose population in
central and western Massachusetts. The breeding season (also known as
"the rut") for white-tailed deer closely follows the moose breeding
season from late October through early December. Because moose have no
natural predators in Massachusetts and are protected by law from
hunting, these large (500-1,000 lbs) members of the deer family are
unconcerned as they move through populated areas. During the mating
season this indifference is magnified by the "tunnel-vision" created by
the urge to reproduce.
Be
aware and heed "Moose and Deer Crossing" signs erected by highway
departments. Motorists are advised to slow down and drive defensively
should a moose or deer be spotted on or by the road. Moose are less
likely to move from the road than deer; braking for moose is your best
policy! Police and other departments involved in moose or deer/car
collisions are reminded that while drivers are allowed by law to keep
white-tailed deer they have hit, only the DFW or the Environmental
Police can make decisions regarding the disposition of moose involved in
vehicle collisions. All moose or deer/vehicle collisions should be
reported to the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife District offices. The
Environmental Police Radio Room can be reached at 1-800-632-8075.

Space Weather News for Oct. 7, 2011
http://spaceweather.com
DRACONID METEOR SHOWER: On Saturday, October 8th, Earth will pass through a
network of dusty filaments shed by Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner. Forecasters
expect the encounter to produce anywhere from a few dozen to a thousand
meteors per hour visible mainly over Europe, northern Africa and the Middle
East. The meteors will stream from the northern constellation Draco--hence
their name, the "Draconids." Check
http://spaceweather.com for full coverage of the event including
observing times and a live audio stream from a meteor radar.

New Program for Teens

Beth Tikvah Synagogue at 45 Oak St. Westborough is proud to introduce a new
program for seventh through twelfth graders throughout the greater Boroughs
area, “Evenings With the Emissaries”. This program offers students the
opportunity to learn about Israeli
history, geography, culture, natural resources, language, holidays and
cuisine in a unique way
from our visiting young Israeli Emissaries, Inbar Cohen and Shahar Peleg.
Shahar is from Moshav Ram On in the Gilboa Region and Inbar is from Kiryat
Tivon (North area of Israel, near Haifa).
The
Emissaries are here for a 10 month long volunteer service experience
sponsored jointly by the Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI) and the Southern
New England Consortium (SNEC), which is a partnership of 12 Jewish
Federations in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Israeli high school graduates
from the Afula Gilboa region who choose to defer their army service are
trained to serve as young ambassadors of Israel to the communities in their
partnership region in Southern New England.
The
“Evenings With the Emissaries” program will meet on ten Wednesdays. The
first session was on Oct. 5. Future nights are Oct. 26, Nov. 9, 30, Dec.
14, Jan. 11, 25, Mar. 14, 28, and May 9th from 7-8 PM. Students
can sign-up for a dinner club that meets from 6:30 – 7 PM. For more information on this program, or to register, please
contact Cindy Avergon,
cavergon@aol.com.
You can also find more information about Beth Tikvah on our website:
www.bethtikvahsynagogue.org. Beth Tikvah
Synagogue is a warm, progressive, inclusive, egalitarian and fully
participatory congregation. The goal at Beth Tikvah Synagogue is to enrich
Jewish life by providing for education, ritual and social growth, and
community service in a warm, welcoming atmosphere for all.
