FEATURE STORY<br />
“We knew we loved the area<br />
after growing up in it. We<br />
wanted to live near family in a<br />
small town with good schools<br />
and open spaces.”<br />
— Joy Puglise<br />
and band camp, and both girls got their boating<br />
licenses this year.<br />
At this juncture, you may pause to take a<br />
breath — since simply reading about these<br />
schedules might have left you tuckered out. It’s<br />
clear that multitalented youth have multilayered<br />
calendars.<br />
For his part, Jeff enjoys boating and fishing,<br />
on lakes and on the ocean. The Puglise family<br />
has a bass boat and they often cruise on Congamond<br />
Lake in Southwick.<br />
When it comes to football, Jeff follows the<br />
road less traveled in this region, where the Patriots<br />
reign supreme: He’s a Pittsburgh Steelers<br />
fan — “he had to be different from all the other<br />
New Englanders,” Joy quips.<br />
Joy appreciates that the New Englanders who<br />
reside in <strong>Granby</strong> are “generally kind and caring<br />
for each other, which is not seen everywhere.”<br />
In addition to the people, Ashley says, “I like<br />
seeing the country scenery.”<br />
Regarding constructive change in town, Joy<br />
says, “We have solid schools but we need to still<br />
strive for improvement. One opportunity might<br />
be adding honors-level classes to the middle<br />
school.”<br />
Jeff offers, “I would change the traffic flow in<br />
the center of town at rush hour.”<br />
Thanks to a seamless part-time commute to<br />
Southwick when they were teenagers, Jeff and<br />
Joy are together in <strong>Granby</strong> today.<br />
