At long last, the sun is warmer, the wind has softened a bit, and the ground around the North Conway Community Center has finally dried out from the last of the melting snow.

With the arrival of May we celebrated what would have been the late Roger Grucel’s 73rd birthday with his widow Linda by planting yellow pansies by his rock. Long a reliable coach and friend of the center, Roger’s life touched many generations of young people here in our valley. And as long as we remember the people we love, they are always with us.
