It was a poignant moment at the polls when a voter, a neighbor of his, walked in and announced – I’m lost without Mike Chapel — to which we could only reply – many of us are. It’s been a year now, and not a week has passed without someone mentioning the loss. It seems it’s another thing we have in common – the missing. Yet with it comes the message of the legacy clearly left us – to look after one another – in sweeping ways as public servants of the town, in altruistic community volunteerism, and in kindnesses – neighbor to neighbor.

Happy Holidays Hampton
