Donald Malcarne, Town Historian It is with deep regret
that we announce the passing of Don Malcarne, our Town Historian and himself
a much heralded presence. He made a success
of himself as an adult in sales and then later parlayed his love of history
into getting his Masters degree from Wesleyan, under the advisorship of
Dr. John Pfeiffer, one of Don's best friends. Over the last twenty
years, especially, Don shared his love and knowledge most generously with
everyone. He built up the Essex Historical Society into a juggernaut of
many interested people who he turned on to the fascination of historical
interpretation. He was devoted to
his family. Shirley was his best friend and mate and their daughters were
close. Don also loved his dogs and could often be seen driving with his
canine sidekick. Mostly, Don was a
gracious presence, generous of heart, and especially fond of the elders
whom he knew his whole life. He has left us with a gift of his time here making things a little better for everyone. He loved the people of the Town and was most generous with his time for others. Philip Miller |
