Governor Sununu Bolsters Effort

to Fight Opiate Crisis
submitted by the Office of NH Governor Sununu
Governor Chris Sununu reiterated on Feb. 23 his continued
emphasis on strengthening substance abuse prevention, treatment
and recovery efforts by announcing the hiring of Marty Boldin to
serve as the Governors Policy Advisor on Prevention, Treatment
and Recovery. He will work directly with James Vara, Governor
Sununus Advisor on Addiction and Behavioral Health, to address
the states ongoing efforts to combat this crisis and help those
suffering with substance use disorders.
The opiate crisis is the most serious public health and
safety issue facing New Hampshire and it remains critical
that we continue supporting investments and resources in law
enforcement, but also in prevention, treatment and recovery
programs, said Governor Chris Sununu. I am thrilled to have
Marty join James in the Governors Office of Substance Use
Disorders and Behavioral Health, where he will help to bring a
renewed emphasis on recovery programs in the state and ensure
that available funds are reaching programs quickly and are
yielding positive results.
Marty Boldin, Deans Fellow and PhD Candidate at the Boston
University School of Social Work, is an accomplished addictions
and social work professional. Boldin has been involved with
the development and implementation of several social service
initiatives in a variety of multi-disciplinary settings across the
United States and has worked in Canada, Russia and Ireland. He
has extensive clinical experience in substance abuse treatment,
prevention, intervention and supervision. Most recently, he
served on the New Hampshire Governors Commission on
Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery
and chaired the Commissions Recovery Task Force.
This announcement comes on the heels of recent action taken
by the Governor, including an application for $6.2 million in
federal CURES Act funding and calls to double the states Alcohol
Fund by more than $3 million, a full reinstatement of Granite
Hammer funds and targeted student loan debt forgiveness for
clinicians and nurses working on the front lines of the opioid
crisis.

Carry Concealed Weapon
submitted by Hudson Police Department
On Feb. 22, Governor Sununu signed into law repealing the
requirement to have a permit to carry a concealed firearm. What
does it mean for you?
In brief, unless you are otherwise prohibited by federal or
state law, you can carry a loaded firearm in a concealed manner,
including in your vehicle, without a permit. All other laws relative
to firearms are still in full force and effect, such as carrying a firearm
within a school zone. (For the text of SB 12, which the Governor
signed into law, go to: https://legiscan.com/NH/text/SB12/2017.)
Although there is no need to obtain a permit, it is optional and for
some folks who travel and wish to carry outside of this state, they
may want to obtain a concealed carry permit. However, always
check with the state youre travelling to, or through, make sure you
are in compliance with that states laws regarding possession and
carrying a loaded firearm. This also doesnt do away with the normal
background checks associated with purchasing a firearm those are
still mandatory.
The important thing to remember is, if you were not eligible to
apply for a carry permit or did not meet the requirements, then those
rules still apply to carrying a firearm. Open carry has been legal
in NH for a while now, so this bill simply allows that same legal
gun owner to carry concealed without obtaining a permit first. This
bill is not reciprocal in Massachusetts when carrying a firearm into
Massachusetts. A LTC or permit is required in that case and you
should refer to a local Massachusetts agency or Massachusetts State
Police Headquarters.
The length of time for a permit to carry a concealed pistol or
revolver changed from four years to five years; a person may carry
a concealed loaded pistol or revolver without a license, unless such
person is otherwise prohibited by New Hampshire or federal statute;
requires the Director of State Police to negotiate and enter into
agreements with other jurisdictions to recognize the validity of the
New Hampshire license to carry; repeals the requirement to obtain
a concealed carry license, both for residents and non-residents, and
making the seeking of a license voluntary.
Residents and non-residents who wish to continue participating
in the concealed pistol or revolver permit system may continue
to file applications with either their New Hampshire city or town
as previously required, or in the case of a non-resident seeking a
concealed pistol or revolver permit, an application will need to be
filed with the Department of Safety, Division of State Police Permits
and Licensing Unit.
Concealed pistol or revolver permits issued within the State of
NH will be required for residents and non-residents seeking to carry
under a reciprocity agreement within another state.
New Hampshire law prohibits the possession of a firearm under
the following: Felony conviction against person or property;
felony conviction in violation of RSA 318-B, the New Hampshire
Controlled Drug Act or the subject of a valid domestic violence
protection order.
Remember to always use safety and use of good judgment. If you
should have any questions, let us know and well do our best to get
you the information you need!
In 2015, 439 people in New Hampshire died from drug
overdoses and nationwide more than 30,000 Americans
are estimated to die each year from opioid overdoses.
First responders, firefighters, police, and treatment
providers are doing incredible work to save lives and
help those struggling with substance use disorder, said
Congresswoman Kuster. What we cant afford is for those
on the frontlines of this crisis to have a life-saving tool
taken from them. The simplicity of naloxone has saved
thousands of lives in New Hampshire and its continued
availability is critical to preventing overdose deaths. Im
very concerned about this astronomical price increase and
will work with my colleagues to ensure that naloxone and
lifesavings drugs are available to address the addiction
crisis.
We are fighting an overdose crisis in New Hampshire,
and lifesaving naloxone is part of our frontline defense.
Raising the price of this overdose antidote by 600 percent
is outrageous and unacceptable, said Congresswoman
Shea-Porter. This drug company is trying to profiteer off
of New Hampshire communities in crisis, and we demand
answers.

U.S. News & World Report Names New Hampshire Sudoku

Among Best States in Nation
NH rated among the top states in opportunity,
college readiness, lowest poverty rate
submitted from the Office of NH Governor Chris Sununu
U.S. News & World Report has recognized New Hampshire as the No. 2 overall
Best State in the country, according to their newly released Best States rankings.
Following the announcement, Governor Chris Sununu issued the following statement:
New Hampshire is among the best states in the nation to live, work and raise a
family, said Governor Chris Sununu. Though we have much work to do to ensure that
Answers
our state continues to grow and thrive, this announcement is something that Granite
Staters can be particularly proud of today. It will also serve as useful information to
those considering moving their home or business to New Hampshire.
U.S. News evaluated states across 68 metrics to create the Best States rankings.
The rankings are based on tens of thousands of data points provided by McKinsey &
Companys Leading States Index. In calculating the rankings, categories were weighted
based on a national citizen experience survey, conducted by McKinsey, that asked
people to prioritize each subject in their state and provide their levels of satisfaction
with government services.

John Christopher Boutselis Marianna (Maloney) Caveney Lewis F. Trowbridge

John Christopher Boutselis, 64,
passed away on Feb. 22, 2017, in
Bedford, N.H., after a 20-plus-year
battle with Parkinsons disease and
Lewy Body Dementia.
John was born on Oct. 3, 1952,
in Lowell, Mass., the son of the
late Alexander G. and Catherine R.
(Zingovas) Boutselis. He attended
Lowell public schools and graduated
from then Lowell State University
with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. He also attended
Anna Maria College, working toward a graduate degree in
counseling psychology.
The youngest of four sons, John was a gifted athlete, who
later became a competitive runner and marathoner. He
raced throughout New England, achieving a multitude of
first place and top finishes, along with age group honors.
He competed many times in the Boston Marathon, with a
personal best of 2:50:52.
While running was certainly a primary passion, Johns
children were his heart and soul. A father of four now-
grown children, Sean, Marissa, Michael and Andrew, the
best moments of Johns life were not at the finish line, but
any time spent with his family. From late-night pizza and
nightly story times, lots of games of catch and Frisbee,
vacations at Newfound Lake, and especially, weekend trips
away, museum visits and outdoor fun with his family, John
loved nothing more.
He worked many years in the liquor business and retail,
taking great pride in the ownership of a wine shop for a
short time as well.
Johns journey through his illness would eventually lead
to managed-care facilities and lessening capabilities, but
John remained confident that one day he would be cured.
He is survived by his beloved children and their
respective partners, Sean Boutselis and Laura Fonden
of Merrimack, Marissa and Justin Brunelle of Hooksett,
Michael and Hannah Boutselis of Manchester and Andrew
Boutselis of Brooklyn, N.Y.; along with two grandchildren,
Logan and Skyla Brunelle; and the mother of his children,
Pamme Boutselis of Litchfield. He is also survived by
one brother, James Boutselis of Lowell, his sisters-in-law,
Bonnie Boutselis of Hudson and Antonia Boutselis of North
Andover; and many nieces and nephews.
Visiting hours were held on Feb. 27 in the Dumont-
Sullivan Funeral Home, 50 Ferry St., Hudson. A funeral
service was held in St. Philip Greek Orthodox Church, 500
West Hollis St., in Nashua. Burial will be held in Pinecrest
Cemetery in Litchfield and will take place in the spring.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made
in Johns memory to The Michael J. Fox Foundation, P.O.
Box 5014, Hagerstown, MD 21741-5014 or the VNA of
Manchester and Southern New Hampshire, 1070 Holt Ave.,
Suite 1400, Manchester, NH 03109.

Operation Care for Troops Sends Another 1,200 Packages
Staff photos by Len Lathrop
The volunteers are getting their instructions from Debbie Luszey who, along with husband, Ted, gets the operation moving.
by Len Lathrop
The system was in full operation Saturday morning
when volunteers filled the Nashua National Guard
Armory to assemble packages to be sent to local
soldiers deployed overseas and here at home.
The mailing included 130 special parcels for
women soldiers. Ted Luszey, who assumed the
leadership role when Judge Moore retired and the
name was changed from MooreMart to Operation
Care For Troops, explained the female boxes
contained different body creams and other feminine
products.
At Operation Care for Troops, their primary mission
is to serve deployed military personnel, their families
when practical, and the children that the soldiers
encounter while representing the United States during
their deployments.

Alvirne hockey played at Skate 3 for what was its final regular
season game against Oyster River in what has been a tough year.
With only a roster of 18 players this season with some freshmen and
first-time players, the Bronco spirit was never dampened; players
skated hard and played up until the last buzzer sounded.
The final 3-15 record might sound disappointing, but to think that
during some games the Broncos only suited 13, when your lone
senior who is a forward moved to defense in quite a few games
including this final contest against Oyster River. The teams three
wins came against Winnacunnet twice and Nashua North.
The highlight of the evening was the honoring of Senior Captain
number 24 Justin Hudgins and Team Manager Desiree Freeman.
In the program for the evening the Friends of Alvirne Ice Hockey
mentioned how grateful they were for Desiree stepping up to
manage the 2016-2017 team alone. Desiree wants to be a nurse
and will be attending Rivier University School of Nursing. While
at Alvirne Desiree competed with the Alvirne Gymnastics team
and loved that sport for over nine years. Coach Nolan, as she was
leaving the ice after being honored with her family, was heard
to say, that in all his years with Alvirne Hockey she makes the
best brownies. For those who dont know, managers have made
brownies for the long bus trips that the teams make.
Captain Hudgins has skated for Alvirne varsity for four years and
has also played with the New England Stars, Northern Cyclones,
Hollis Cavaliers and the Dual State Huskies. He also plays Lacrosse
for the Broncos. Justin wants to pursue his hobbies of art and
drawing in the art and design field, make a lot of money and drive
a nice car. His first choice of schools is Wentworth Institute of
Technology followed by the University of Massachusetts and the
University of New Hampshire.

John Christopher Boutselis Marianna (Maloney) Caveney Lewis F. Trowbridge

John Christopher Boutselis, 64,
passed away on Feb. 22, 2017, in
Bedford, N.H., after a 20-plus-year
battle with Parkinsons disease and
Lewy Body Dementia.
John was born on Oct. 3, 1952,
in Lowell, Mass., the son of the
late Alexander G. and Catherine R.
(Zingovas) Boutselis. He attended
Lowell public schools and graduated
from then Lowell State University
with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. He also attended
Anna Maria College, working toward a graduate degree in
counseling psychology.
The youngest of four sons, John was a gifted athlete, who
later became a competitive runner and marathoner. He
raced throughout New England, achieving a multitude of
first place and top finishes, along with age group honors.
He competed many times in the Boston Marathon, with a
personal best of 2:50:52.
While running was certainly a primary passion, Johns
children were his heart and soul. A father of four now-
grown children, Sean, Marissa, Michael and Andrew, the
best moments of Johns life were not at the finish line, but
any time spent with his family. From late-night pizza and
nightly story times, lots of games of catch and Frisbee,
vacations at Newfound Lake, and especially, weekend trips
away, museum visits and outdoor fun with his family, John
loved nothing more.
He worked many years in the liquor business and retail,
taking great pride in the ownership of a wine shop for a
short time as well.
Johns journey through his illness would eventually lead
to managed-care facilities and lessening capabilities, but
John remained confident that one day he would be cured.
He is survived by his beloved children and their
respective partners, Sean Boutselis and Laura Fonden
of Merrimack, Marissa and Justin Brunelle of Hooksett,
Michael and Hannah Boutselis of Manchester and Andrew
Boutselis of Brooklyn, N.Y.; along with two grandchildren,
Logan and Skyla Brunelle; and the mother of his children,
Pamme Boutselis of Litchfield. He is also survived by
one brother, James Boutselis of Lowell, his sisters-in-law,
Bonnie Boutselis of Hudson and Antonia Boutselis of North
Andover; and many nieces and nephews.
Visiting hours were held on Feb. 27 in the Dumont-
Sullivan Funeral Home, 50 Ferry St., Hudson. A funeral
service was held in St. Philip Greek Orthodox Church, 500
West Hollis St., in Nashua. Burial will be held in Pinecrest
Cemetery in Litchfield and will take place in the spring.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made
in Johns memory to The Michael J. Fox Foundation, P.O.
Box 5014, Hagerstown, MD 21741-5014 or the VNA of
Manchester and Southern New Hampshire, 1070 Holt Ave.,
Suite 1400, Manchester, NH 03109.

Alvirne hockey played at Skate 3 for what was its final regular
season game against Oyster River in what has been a tough year.
With only a roster of 18 players this season with some freshmen and
first-time players, the Bronco spirit was never dampened; players
skated hard and played up until the last buzzer sounded.
The final 3-15 record might sound disappointing, but to think that
during some games the Broncos only suited 13, when your lone
senior who is a forward moved to defense in quite a few games
including this final contest against Oyster River. The teams three
wins came against Winnacunnet twice and Nashua North.
The highlight of the evening was the honoring of Senior Captain
number 24 Justin Hudgins and Team Manager Desiree Freeman.
In the program for the evening the Friends of Alvirne Ice Hockey
mentioned how grateful they were for Desiree stepping up to
manage the 2016-2017 team alone. Desiree wants to be a nurse
and will be attending Rivier University School of Nursing. While
at Alvirne Desiree competed with the Alvirne Gymnastics team
and loved that sport for over nine years. Coach Nolan, as she was
leaving the ice after being honored with her family, was heard
to say, that in all his years with Alvirne Hockey she makes the
best brownies. For those who dont know, managers have made
brownies for the long bus trips that the teams make.
Captain Hudgins has skated for Alvirne varsity for four years and
has also played with the New England Stars, Northern Cyclones,
Hollis Cavaliers and the Dual State Huskies. He also plays Lacrosse
for the Broncos. Justin wants to pursue his hobbies of art and
drawing in the art and design field, make a lot of money and drive
a nice car. His first choice of schools is Wentworth Institute of
Technology followed by the University of Massachusetts and the
University of New Hampshire.
