Are you one of those people who sings, hums, or taps your fingers (or evenfeet) to the tunes on your car radio? When you're walking down the street, do you snap your fingers andshuffle your feet?LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHERNeither do I. And it may interest you to know that Lynnfield's Noel Smith does not sing in the shower.But she's singing at almost every other time of the day. She teaches it while the sun's out, and then shegoes into Boston by night and sings voice-overs and bit parts at a recording studio in Roslindale.She has trained singers for Broadway and helped them get into schools that specialize in drama. Andshe has definite opinions on what makes a good singer. But first and foremost, she says, you have to loveit and you have to want it. Steve Krause has the story.On another note, Angelo David, an 18-year-old singer/songwriter and keyboard player, began writingsongs at the age of 8 after he began taking piano lessons. He's still at it. Elyse Carmosino has the story.COVID-19 is never far away from us. This edition of 01940 has four stories that deal with variousfacets of the subject. In the first, Gayla Cawley talks to Senior Center director Linda Naccara about howto eliminate, or at least lessen, loneliness among elderly people. Then, school nurse Denise Weaver has setup a donation drive to help those in Chelsea affected by the pandemic. Guthrie Scrimgeour has the story.The existence of COVID has made for a bumpy ride in the Lynnfield school district, where the town'sascension to the state's red zone — the highest risk designation assigned to communities based on theaverage daily cases per 100,000 residents — changed plans around a little. Anne Marie Tobin has the story.Finally, meet a rarity in high school athletics: a four-sport athlete. Ava Buonfiglio fits the bill. BecauseCOVID pushed her volleyball season to the end of the winter, Buonfiglio decided to pursue crosscountry in the fall. That made four sports for her this year, as she also plays basketball and tennis. MikeAlongi has the story. Alongi also has the story about Teri Chisholm experiencing nearly every aspect ofthe educational system during her career.Nikki Martin joined Compass Real Estate in April in the middle of the pandemic. Since then, shehas been doing everything she can to keep up with a frenetic residential real-estate market. Anne MarieTobin is back with that story.The history of Pillings Pond is long and its roots run deep — but it is still capable of surprising even longtimeresidents. Kirk Mansfield's family history and the pond go hand in hand. Daniel Kane has the story.Soderberg Insurance Services originated nearly 55 years ago in the corner of a basement with a makeshiftdesk built from a door laid across two file cabinets. It has grown since then, not only as an insuranceprovider but in giving back to the community too. Guthrie Scrimgeour has the story.And when it comes to specialty cakes, cupcakes, cookies and confectionary treats, nobody does it betterthan Pam Shapleigh, who is definitely Lynnfield's "Cake Boss." The prolific Anne Marie Tobin has the story.INSIDE04 What's Up24 Musical Angelo06 Reading, writing, remote 28 She cares and shares10 Her helping hand 30 55 and counting12 House Money32 Rock art14 Sweet creations 34 Ava for effort16 Daring Nikki36 History floats18 High achiever38 Autumnal antics20 Sing out, NoelTED GRANTCOVERA musician since the ageof 8, Lynnfield's AngeloDavid is a recordingartist who has wonawards for his songs.PHOTO BYOLIVIA FALCIGNO
