SOMERS — About 2,500 student athletes from 61 schools descended on Somers between Friday and Saturday for the 47th annual Somers Lions Joe Wynne Invitational track and field meet
some with top state rankings in their events and one left with something arguably even cooler — a meet record
Maybe it was only appropriate that honor was earned by Somers senior Haylie Donovan
who cut her teeth in the sport on the Tuskers track
there seemed little doubt she could have run a lot faster than the 56.05 she clocked in the girls 400
which later would change and cause multiple events to be scrapped and participants to be sent home
And when she and others in her race (as well as others in some other races) made the turn for home
then had to push through wind to the finish
Donovan was just fast enough to break the record set by Arlington's Zola Golden by .05
"I was on pace for 54 but the head wind," lamented Donovan
lifted a team's canopy from the stands partially onto the track during a race (no one was hurt)
But the larger issue was approaching storms and while a baseball game continued on a nearby field
meet officials followed state high school protocol and suspended action for 30 minutes after thunder was heard
But that quickly changed to the rest of the meet being cancelled with the boys and girls 400-meter hurdles
girls pole vault and the boys and girls 200 finals lost
The decision initially seemed curious with sunny skies returning before most team buses had left the parking lot
it was based on radar and waves of on-again/off-again storms followed
ultimately bringing some lightning and then prolonged
meet officials decided to turn those races into finals
although there seemed little doubt she and others who hadn't run all out in the prelims
weren't going to be happy with their times
breaking the meet's 200 mark seemed remote
Somers Lions Joe Wynne is a go-to meet and has been for some time
And that has meant top athletes have attended and top performances have been logged
The meet's best ever girls 200 mark is 23.9. It was clocked in 2011 by then-New Rochelle runner (she also ran for Mount Vernon) Deajah Stevens
who went on to qualify for the women's 200 Olympic final at the 2016 Rio Olympics
Stevens' mark may have a very long, if not forever, lifespan. So, too, Rai Benjamin's 400 hurdles Lions record of 53.54 from 2014 may endure
He ran 49.82 before graduating from Mount Vernon and is now
a four-time Olympic medalist with a silver and
Whether Friday's and Saturday's huge fields included any Olympians in the making won't be known for some time

who missed winter indoor track with a hamstring injury
edging New Rochelle's Ryan Temistokle (48.26)
whose personal-best time in the event is 47.93
might have challenged the meet's 24-year-old boys record of 47.5 had the weather been less windy was unclear
It's definitely a good confidence-booster," he said
noting his season goal is to break 47 seconds and win the state championship
There seemed little doubt young Horace Greeley star Malina Santee would have been faster in the girls 1,500 without fighting the wind
but I'm happy with the effort," said Santee
who was scheduled to have also run the girls 800
Rye Country Day hasn't been known as a track power but that may be changing
Jocelyn Rice and Meleah Dunley broke the Wildcats girls school record and qualified for New Balance Nationals with their 1:43.61 girls 4x200 finish
which topped all class sizes at the meet and put the team No
the four had also broken the decade-old girls 4x100 school record with a 49.33 clocking
Hen Hud's Chloe Howard didn't set any records but fresh off a solid ninth-place performance and setting a school record at the Penn Relays in the taxing 5,000-meter racewalk
she was happy to win the girls mile racewalk
even if her 8:37.61 clocking was well off her best time at the distance
"I think my body is still tired (from Penn)," Howard said
calling competing there an "amazing experience."
along with many of the weekend's top stars
will compete at this week's Loucks Games where her goal will be to break her 1,600 racewalk personal-best time of 8:18.5
Overall winnersOne appeal of the Lions meet is there are both overall and class winners for each event and meet T-shirts are given to the first several finishers in each event in each class
Below is a list of the rest of the meet's overall winners
Girls triple jump: Victoria Grigorova (32-2.5)
Boys 1,600 sprint medley relay: Stepinac (3:39.26)
Girls 1,600 sprint medley relay: Hackley (4:11.94)

who is headed to the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder impingement
No 40-man roster move was necessary to accommodate the addition of Wynne
though the Reds’ 40-man roster is now full
was signed by the Reds out of the independent Frontier League back in 2019
He’s been working his way through the Reds organization ever since
climbing the minor league ladder and even getting a brief call-up to the majors back in 2023
He surrendered one run in 2 1/3 frames during his lone big league outing and was outrighted off the club’s 40-man roster not long after
Despite that relatively brief stint in the majors
Wynne has remained in the Reds organization as a swingman at Triple-A
He’s done fairly well for himself there in recent years
with a 4.16 ERA in 93 innings last season and a 3.06 ERA across his first four starts of the 2025 campaign
He’ll take the vacated roster spot of Spiers
who threw 94 pitches yesterday over four innings of relief
The righty has a 6.08 ERA across 13 1/3 innings this year
his third season as a swing man for the Reds
Spiers’s work on the mound for Cincinnati has generally been serviceable but below-average overall
with most of those innings coming last season when he threw 90 2/3 frames of 5.46 ERA ball split between ten starts and 12 relief appearances
The severity of Spiers’s injury is not yet known
but he’ll miss at least the next two weeks as he nurses the injury
Suter has looked solid this year with a 2.70 ERA despite a 4.52 FIP
but he last logged significant time as a starter back in 2018 and has maxed out at two innings to this point in the 2025 campaign
Given that Wynne is stretched out as a starter
it would make sense if the team’s plan against the Orioles today is for Suter to throw an inning or two before Wynne takes over as a bulk reliever
Cincinnati Reds Transactions Carson Spiers Randy Wynne
He’ll never be as good as the OG Randy Winn from TB
Not to be confused with the OG – Randy Winn
the outfielder for the Pirates among others
Pitching for the Reds and doing post game shows for the Giants
Spiers to the IL with shoulder impingement
So nice of Francona to just leaving him out there for 90+ pitches with nobody warming up as he was getting pounded yesterday
That was painful to watch in a game that was not out of reach at the time
I don’t think he had much choice with a bullpen burned out in recent games
But a shame they ruined the kid’s arm for a while
Greene is already regressing to his normal pitch inefficient self eith the previous long outings wearing on him already and Lodolo can barely make five innings
the front office decides to sacrifice this game today with another cast off starter when they have better options they choose not to promote
I fully understand what the “plan” was but he was getting toasted and the game was still within reach
Was just flipping through and turned that game on
Just hard to fathom a guy “taking one for the team” and ending up with that cost
Probably a wink-wink “injury” for Spiers
Hunter Greene has one bad outing in his fifth game of the season and you say he’s “regressing”
Lodolo goes at least 6 innings in 3 of his 4 starts yet you claim he can barely make 5 innings
And the Reds only gave up 2 runs today in a game that you declared they sacrificed
What a bunch of dums in here like any of you ass clown can do better
Aren’t you late for third period English
The irony of you calling people “dums”
Randy Winn was one of my favorite Mariners mid 2000’s
Got him back in the trade for Lou Piniella
Reds gonna roll with a Wynne-Wynns battery called up from AAA
Part of Carson Spiers job is to pitch ML innings for the Reds in less than optimal situations
Carson said he tried to pitch through the injury without reporting it to the coaches.Anyway it worked as Reds “bullpen day” allowed only 1 ER in a 24 to 2 victory
Meanwhile Carson Spiers begins logging IL days while on the ML roster- thus accruing time towards ML benefits
He looked fairly decent in the 3 innings of work Mirrored his Triple-A numbers.

GRAND FORKS — Tom Wynne spent 35 years coaching college tennis at UND.
Wynne admits he was apprehensive about taking the Grand Forks Central High School coaching job when he was approached.
Now that he's a couple of weeks in, he's happy he did it.
"I'm really enjoying it," Wynne said. "The players are a lot of fun to work with. I'm really glad I decided to do it.
"The college thing was great fun, but boy was it getting frustrating when, every year, you'd lose players (to the transfer portal). We lost our No. 1 player three years in a row. It was getting old after a while and that's the way it's going to be. You get someone and you think, 'Good, we're going to be set for four years.' Nope. You have to start all over again. That was driving me nuts."
"The kids are enthusiastic," Wynne said. "Everything you tell them is a pearl of wisdom. It's been fun."
Central has a change at the top of its lineup with the graduation of Madi Stauss.
Alli Wilhelmi is the new No. 1 singles player for the Knights. Wilhelmi was a state doubles qualifier last season.
"If you have a good forehand and backhand, you can be a nightmare to play against in high school tennis," Wynne said. "She's a good mover. There are a lot of pluses. She has a great attitude. I’ve watched her play a few tournaments and the only kids who beat her are the ones who really have their game down pretty good."
Junior Stella Blue also qualified for state in doubles last season.
The Red River girls, who finished sixth at state as a team last season, have Addy Lommen at the top of their lineup.
Lommen qualified for state doubles last season.
"She’s going to be facing everybody’s best player," Red River coach Greg LaDouceur said. "She just battles hard. That’s how she gets her wins. She doesn’t ever give up."
The Roughriders have been using far more players than most teams.
They've already had four players make their varsity debuts this season. Red River used 11 players in its 9-0 win over West Fargo this week.
"We’re a very athletic team," LaDouceur said. "We’re pretty much the same players all the way up and down the lineup. We compete well in all of our positions. We’re going to have a dogfight to stay in our lineup and crack our lineup. Our lineup could be moving around quite a bit with challenge matches because they’re all very similar players."
Coach: Greg LaDouceur.2024 record: 8-8, state sixth place.Key returners: Sr. Addy Lommen (state doubles qualifier), sr. Maddy Nelson, sr. Naomi Rahman, fr. Ruby Schneider, fr. Kalli Block, soph. Lauren Endres, soph. Elizabeth Kilgore.Key newcomers: Seventh-grader Irene Tang, soph. Katelyn Hur, sr. Karter Krefting, sr. Brielle Larson.Coach LaDouceur says: "It's a very competitive group of kids. We don't drop off much. We have 45 kids out. We still have more players coming out, which I love."
Coach: Tom Wynne.2024 record: 5-7.Key returners: Jr. Alli Wilhelmi (state doubles qualifier), jr. Hawi Lemma, jr. Stella Blue (state doubles qualifier), soph. Peyton Ault, soph. Lea Johnson.Key newcomers: Jr. Julia Midori, fr. Haley Johnson.Coach Wynne says: "Our goal is to try to get a team that can go to state. The goal is to win, but our purpose is to have fun and improve. If we do that, then things will take care of themselves after that."
Famous for its breathtaking mountain landscapes and cliffside Buddhist monasteries, the small South Asian kingdom of Bhutan is also home to miles upon miles of caves that have been shrouded in mystery…until now.
In the first-ever scientific exploration of its kind in Bhutan, a team of researchers and forest rangers led by NAU assistant research professor Jut Wynne is uncovering how large and small animals use caves, how many yet-to-be-discovered species insects and spiders live inside and how Bhutanese communities can preserve the caves’ delicate ecosystems for future generations.
“This is an unwritten chapter of the country’s natural history,” said Wynne, who is affiliated with the Department of Biological Sciences and NAU’s Center for Adaptable Western Landscapes (CAWL). “This research will likely reshape our understanding of cave ecosystems across the Himalayas, and perhaps Southeast Asia, with discoveries ranging from new species of subterranean-adapted arthropods to the secretive cave habits of tigers and leopards.”
Wynne said the research has been made possible thanks to support from CAWL, the National Cave and Karst Institute, the Royal University of Bhutan, The Explorers Club and Rolex.
The ecologist is no stranger to caves. Before traveling to Bhutan in mid-March, Wynne had made six trips to the isolated Polynesian island of Rapa Nui to study cave-dwelling insects that exist nowhere else in the world, most recently as part of a Darwin-inspired research expedition. Wynne’s cave research has also taken him across the Southwest and to Belize, Spain and China.

Now back in Flagstaff after two weeks of research and meetings with conservationists in Bhutan, Wynne is excited to dig into the researchers’ initial findings. There’s a lot to unpack.
While in Bhutan, one of Wynne’s goals was to unearth as many new species of subterranean-adapted arthropods—insects, spiders and other invertebrates—as possible. While scientists have already discovered about 1.8 million arthropod species, they believe there could be as many as 5 to 30 million more. Some of those undiscovered species undoubtedly live in the caves of Bhutan.
“We know virtually no work has been done in Bhutan,” Wynne said. “If you’re the first team to collect subterranean-adapted species in a cave, and you’re in a place as remote as Bhutan, you’re likely to discover mostly new species.”
Wynne said he and his colleagues have already identified more than 60 different species of arthropods from other parts of the world. He believes they’ll soon be able to share information about dozens of never-before-described types of invertebrates from Bhutan as well.
There’s little doubt that bears, tigers, leopards and other endangered species wander in and out of Bhutan’s caves. But what do they do while they’re inside? A series of trail cameras installed outside of and within caves may provide some insights into that question for ecologists and conservationists.
“While much is known about the subterranean proclivities of African leopards, virtually nothing is known about how leopards and other species use caves throughout Asia,” Wynne said. “These cameras could shed some much-needed light.”
While in Bhutan, Wynne spent time documenting where and how bats live inside the caves. His team set up bat call detectors near their study caves and even at their guesthouses as they traveled across the country. As they were mist-netting bats most nights, they also recorded calls from bats as they were released.
The data they collected will be used to help develop a bat call library for Bhutan—which didn’t exist before this study.
As Wynne and his colleagues collected arthropods, noted natural features and recorded bat and other animal observations, Patricia Kambesis of Western Kentucky University followed them every step of the way. Considered one of the world’s foremost cave cartographers, Kambesis will develop maps of all four caves the researchers visited, which will help them visualize cave microclimates and show exactly where animals roam and roost within the cave systems.
Caves are sacred to the Bhutanese, a mostly Buddhist population. At the mouth of one cave, a local resident told Wynne that many Buddhists believed seven months of meditation in that place was just as powerful as seven years of meditation in Tibet. At another cave they studied, a monk had been meditating there since 2016.
As a result, many choose to display their religious devotion by leaving offerings inside the caves. They’re often made of flowers, food, candles or incense—materials that could potentially negatively impact the animals living there.
“If I put on my science hat, I’d say we shouldn’t be doing that,” Wynne said. “But these aren’t my caves; they belong to the people of Bhutan, and they’re honoring these sacred sites with offerings.”
Wynne’s job over the next several months will be to analyze how human disturbance of these caves—from offerings to wooden ladders to footsteps through mud—and come up with conservation recommendations that strike a compromise between protecting biological resources while respecting the country’s Buddhist culture.
“One fundamental precept of Buddhism is to do no harm and recognize the importance of all beings,” he said. “I think if the locals knew some of these activities were detrimental, they’d reconsider. Maybe they’ll be willing to make offerings only in specific areas of the caves or avoid entering caves during certain times of the year to protect bats.”
Wynne said that by mapping the kingdom’s caves, cataloging its cave-dwelling species and monitoring wildlife behavior, the research team will help underscore the urgency of cave protection both locally and worldwide. As the globe warms, populations increase and tourism to the Himalayas continues to pick up, cave habitats like those in Bhutan face escalating threats.
“Our goal is to share the discoveries of this research, emphasize the importance of Bhutan’s fragile biodiversity and explore the potential for meaningful protective cave management,” Wynne said. “Insights from the team of international researchers and local conservationists will serve to lay the foundation for safeguarding these sensitive ecosystems.”

and put an exclamation point on their series victory with a 24-2 win on Sunday
There were innumerable statistics to emerge from Sunday's beatdown
but perhaps the most impressive belonged to the duo of Austin Wynns and Noelvi Marte
The Cincinnati Reds beat the brakes off the Baltimore Orioles over the weekend
While both batters did considerable damage in the eighth and ninth innings against Orioles' position players, the 11 hits between the two were the most from the No. 8 and No. 9 hitters in a lineup in at least the last 120 years
and the 13 RBI from Wynns and Marte were tied for the second-most all time
The Reds were utterly dominant and now own a +32 run differential
which is the third-best in the National League behind the Chicago Cubs (+41) and the San Diego Padres (+35)
But there was even more good news revealed following Cincinnati's win on Sunday
Cincinnati reporter Charlie Goldsmith disclosed that Reds prospect Chase Burns will receive a promotion this week and is expected to make his Double-A debut on Saturday for the Chattanooga Lookouts
Burns has appeared in three games for High-A Dayton this season
but his stuff proved to be too much for the opposition at that level
Chase Burns is being promoted to Chattanooga and heading to Double-A
He’ll make his debut at that level on Saturday
Many Reds fans assumed Burns would make his professional debut at Double-A anyway
and his 44.4% strikeout rate in three games with the Dayton Dragons proved it
The competition at High-A was no match for his lethal fastball/ slider combination and Burns will now head to southeastern Tennessee where the uptick in opposition should provide a more formidable matchup
The Reds needed an extra arm after exhausting their bullpen last week
and Randy Wynne was called up after Cincinnati placed reliever Carson Spiers on the IL
Sunday's performance from the quartet of Wynne
and Taylor Rogers helped to give Cincinnati's relief corps some much -needed rest
Wynne secured the save in Sunday's 24-2 win despite the Reds' margin of victory, Typically, fans only see saves accounted for after a pitcher enters a game during the ninth inning with a three-run lead or fewer. But, in addition to the traditional ninth-inning entrance, a pitcher can also notch a save if they pitch at least three innings or enter the game with the tying run in the on-deck circle
Spiers was placed on the 15-day IL on Sunday after being diagnosed with a shoulder impingement. The right-hander was supposed to start on Sunday in place of Nick Lodolo
but instead gave Reds manager Terry Francona all he had during four innings of relief on Saturday
Spiers' was apparently nursing a nagging injury throughout spring training
and it continued to plague him after being named to the Reds Opening Day roster
Spiers is headed back to Cincinnati for an MRI on Monday
but he doesn't believe the injury is anything serious

By Darragh McDonald | April 24
The Reds have sent right-hander Randy Wynne outright to Triple-A Louisville, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com
He had been optioned earlier this week but there was no previous indication he had been removed from the 40-man roster
so this would appear to drop the club’s count to 39
Wynne, 32, was selected to the club’s roster on Sunday. Hunter Greene had only lasted three innings in Saturday’s game
forcing the bullpen to sop up five frames in a road loss
with the Reds planning to do a bullpen game
He allowed one run on three hits and a walk
he likely wasn’t going to be available for a few days
so the Reds optioned him back down to Louisville
It appears they also quietly put him on waivers and passed him through unclaimed
which gives him the right to elect free agency
though it’s not yet clear if he will do so
The Reds had done basically this same thing in 2023
bringing him up for one outing before outrighting him off the roster
He now has 5 1/3 innings pitched across two major league appearances with a 3.38 earned run average
Dating back to the start of the 2021 season
he has thrown 406 2/3 minor league innings with a 4.91 ERA
Cincinnati Reds Transactions Randy Wynne
they should trade him to the giants so that Randy Winn can be in charge of developing Randy Wynne
Now there’s a name I haven’t thought about for 20 years…
I doubt the Reds can quiely pass (Austin) Wynns through waivers like they did (Randy) Wynne
Gotta make room for Nick Lodolo’s return

The U.S. Department of State announced the selection of Dr. Carly Womack-Wynne, interim associate dean for accreditation and assessment and department head of Middle Grades, Secondary and Science Education in the University of North Georgia's (UNG) College of Education
for an English Language Specialist project
Womack-Wynne will spend three weeks in Serbia at the University of Kragujevac at Jagodina during the spring semester
as her project is one of approximately 240 that the English Language Specialist Program supports each year.
"I'm excited to return to Serbia and specifically to the University of Kragujevac at Jagodina to work with my colleagues in their Faculty of Education
as well as their public-school teachers and teacher candidates," Womack-Wynne said
"It is intensely rewarding to work with teachers and faculty in other parts of the world. When you engage with other cultures
you have the opportunity to learn so much about yourself and about the way they approach teacher education."
The English Language Specialist Program is the premier opportunity for leaders in the field of teaching English to speakers of other languages to enact meaningful and sustainable changes in the way that English is taught abroad
English Language Specialists work directly with local teacher trainers
and ministry of education officials to exchange knowledge
and establish partnerships benefiting participants
institutions and communities in the United States and overseas
English Language Specialists are counted among the more than 50,000 individuals participating in U.S
Department of State exchange programs each year
The Specialist Program is administered by the Center for Intercultural Education and Development at Georgetown University
This is Womack-Wynne's second English Language Specialist selection
and she has also served twice as a Fulbright Specialist within the past five years

Melissa Wynne (3rd) will not seek reelection in 2025
Wynne’s 28-year tenure on the council will make her the 3rd Ward’s longest serving councilmember and the fourth-longest serving elected official in city history
After serving on the city’s Environment Board for four years
Wynne joined the City Council in 1997 and has been reelected every four years since then
“She is extremely open-minded and collaborative
always willing to assess an issue from multiple points of view to reach a compromise that best serves the whole community,” Mayor Daniel Biss told The Daily in an email
“I’ve learned a great deal from her and
while I wish her a wonderful and well-deserved retirement
I know I’ll miss her on council.”
located in southeast Evanston along the lakefront
Wynne helped establish and grow the Main-Dempster Mile in 2014
protected the city’s lakefront from commercialization and pioneered the practice of hosting regular town hall meetings with residents
Wynne voted against the commercial rezoning of Ryan Field
Interfaith Action of Evanston Overnight Shelter Director Shawn Iles and environmentalist Gennifer Geer are running for the 3rd Ward’s open seat
Evanston’s consolidated general election will take place April 1
New councilmembers will take office later that month
The Daily spoke with Wynne about the work she’s done on City Council and what her future holds
This interview has been lightly edited for brevity and clarity
The Daily: What are your proudest accomplishments as the 3rd Ward’s councilmember for the past 28 years
Wynne: For the first part of the time that I was on the council
It had been zoned to allow much taller buildings along the length of it
we were able to get it rezoned downward and to make it much
The transformation of Chicago Avenue is something I’m pretty proud of
it was treeless — very much an arterial street that you didn’t pay much attention to
It’s much greener than it used to be
The other thing I did want to say is that I’m very proud to have been a participant in our reparations program
even though the City Council originally voted on reparations in the early 2000s
but we didn’t have a revenue stream for it
I’m really proud of being part of a City Council that voted for that
We’re setting an example for a lot of communities in the United States
The Daily: What challenges have you faced in your position
Wynne: For the first portion that I was on the City Council before the Great Recession
part of the challenge was that we had developers coming to Evanston who wanted to build
build — as tall and dense as they could get away with
It was a challenge to actually get development that fit into Evanston
that people in Evanston felt was appropriate
The Daily: How has your work and your understanding of Evanston changed over the past 28 years
Wynne: One of the things that I tell new councilmembers
or people who are interested in the council
is that there is such a deep and broad amount of talent in Evanston
It’s always astonishing to me when we have people who come to public comment or people who get involved in an issue or serve on one of our boards or commissions
just the level of expertise and skill they bring
I am continually impressed by Evanstonians and their really active involvement in their community
The Daily: In the final six months of your term before the next alderperson takes office
and then we have the new comprehensive plan and the zoning changes
I look forward to working on that and getting that done before the next council comes in
and to the extent that we can make some decisions about a more permanent location for the (Lorraine H
Morton) Civic Center and the police and fire headquarters
I think it’s really important that this council makes that decision and not leave that up to the next council
The Daily: What do you hope the next 3rd Ward alderperson prioritizes
The vast majority of members of the council do it because they care really deeply about their community
and they want to give their best thinking on every issue
So I look forward to the next 3rd Ward councilmember being someone who carefully weighs what the community thinks and gathers all of the information and then makes a good policy decision
how can the city create a more productive relationship with Northwestern
it’s maintaining the lines of communication
no matter how strained they can get — trying to build trust back and forth
I like (NU Executive Director of Neighborhood and Community Relations) Dave Davis a lot
He’s the liaison (between NU and) the City Council
We need to recognize that neither of us are going anywhere and that our fates are really intertwined
The Daily: How do you want to be remembered in Evanston
What do you hope your legacy is on the city
Wynne: I hope people remember that I really worked hard for all Evanstonians
and that I did my best to weigh every issue carefully and make a smart public policy decision
Traveling for longer than 12 days between council meetings is one of my primary goals with my husband
This is a preview of what we’re planning to do
I want to travel more and spend time with various family members who are scattered around the country

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Helen “Totsie” Louise Wynne on October 19th
to parents James and Veronica Johnson in Stoneham
she was the light and rock to her whole family
at the age of 19 and built an unwavering bond of over 63 years
Christine (Gross) Wynne and Brian Wynne.
Family was everything to Helen and she truly was the glue that kept everyone together
Nothing made her happier than time spent with her family at her beach house in Marshfield
hosting Holiday gatherings or going to the overwhelmingly number of sports games her four grandchildren played in
you could always count on her to be in the stands cheering for you
Helen worked as a long-time administrative assistant at Central School in Stoneham
MA and took great pride in her work of helping others
She made countless friendships from her time there that she carried with her throughout her life
she took on the role of full-time grandmother and great grandmother which was her favorite of all.
Helen is preceded in joining the Lord by her mother and father
her brother James Johnson and her sister Mary “Dotty” (Cook) Johnson.
Helen is survived by her loving husband Kevin Wynne; daughter Christine (Gross) Wynne; son Brian Wynne; son-in-law Steven Gross; granddaughters Briana Gross
Catherine (Cole) Gross and Louisa “Weezie” Gross; grandson Andrew Gross; great grandchildren Millicent and Lottie Cole; brother Lawrence (Joe) Johnson; sister Patricia (McGah) Johnson and several loving nieces
Helen was larger than life and commanded any room that she walked into
She cared so deeply for the people around her and made an impact and friends wherever she went
She will be forever loved and missed.
the family requests donations be made to the MSPCA
a cause that Helen felt strongly about to help animals in need and find their forever home
Visitation for relatives and friends will be held at McDonald-Finnegan Funeral Home

MA - Mary Wynne Burns has spent the last 20+ years teaching and developing young players at the New England Tennis Center (NETC)
The longtime Director of 12U Tennis at Orchard Hills Athletic Club (Lancaster
from recreational players transitioning to their next ball color to Junior Team Tennis (JTT) and top-ranked USTA tournament players
Her JTT highlights include leading her 12U team to the 2019 New England Championship and developing players on the 14U team that reached Nationals in 2018
Burns also has run several Nike Tennis Camps
including 12U camps and the first-ever 10U Nike Camp
She is the junior varsity tennis coach at Acton-Boxborough (AB) High and is beloved by her students wherever she teaches
MA) leading the 12U programming at the club
My son was a hockey goalie in high school at AB
and I figured since I was teaching him already
And it was right around that time I was offered the JV tennis coach job and I’ve been there since
as he played USTA tournaments and eventually won the state doubles championship
My main focus is helping the children see who they can become
I give them a picture or a vision of what they can do
I’ll give them a goal and we problem solve
we work on what they did well and improve from there
My involvement is with the whole family since they’re so young
Watching a child develop their skills and confidence and seeing how excited their parents are is a special feeling
so I tell parents to let me be the coach and you be the fans
and I do the important job of making sure the child feels safe to make mistakes
I tend to stay friends with many parents; the relationships don’t cease when the kids graduate
It’s an amazing experience for me also having been on the other side with a son who competed in tournament play
All these kids see themselves as teammates
I don’t pit them against each other unless we’re preparing for a doubles tournament
They encourage each other and help each other develop
I try to provide as many mini camps as possible on holidays or on other days when they can come in together
Many of my kids actually have and continue to compete for me or against me at AB
I’ve also hired several high school students to come back to work for me
sharing their experiences and what was difficult for them growing up
And the young kids feel they have these amazing high school players as their friends
They even watch them play their high school matches
I would’ve taught tennis from the beginning
What I’ve been exposed to has been phenomenal
I’m a former professor at Boston University
and I’m not looking to present myself in any great light
I just work to prepare these children for their futures

He has also appeared on Fox News multiple times to trash San Francisco
He and others say they share their content in the name of exposing the issues the city faces and putting pressure on elected officials to do better
“It’s a way to get the information out, to make sure the public is aware this is what’s happening,” said Erica Sandberg, a consumer finance reporter who shares similar content with her 20,000 followers on the social media platform
This is what people are experiencing.”
But advocates who work in the Tenderloin aren’t sure the videos do much but hurt the people in them
the director of health services at social service nonprofit GLIDE
said that even if some of these social media users have good intentions
“It’s unkind to violate people’s privacy and show them in conditions that may not be at their best
it has impact on people’s ability to feel good about themselves,” he told KQED
People living on the streets often feel vilified or judged
which only causes them to turn away from services or support
adding that this kind of content can perpetuate that cycle
who also appeared on Fox earlier this year
said she doesn’t like accounts that have a “salacious” slant
When the content is aimed at getting attention from elected officials and holding their feet to the fire
“What started me many years ago on this path was that I wasn’t seeing in the media the truth,” she said
‘We’re doing better,’ and nothing was making sense
So it was really important to me to get that information out in a way that I found to be accurate and respectful.”
She’s praised Wynne and other accounts like “bettersoma” and “jj smith” for their posts
which display similarly controversial content
saying the backlash he receives for his content is too impactful
Both Mesnick and the man known as “jj smith” share photos of people using drugs, passed out on city streets, receiving overdose-reversing care, and even deceased. Mesnick also checks to see if people who look unconscious are breathing and has called 911 to get them help, he told the San Francisco Chronicle in 2023
Discepola agrees that there can be value in showing the conditions of the streets — but a better way to do it might be to humanize those being photographed
Harry Williams
a photographer who started a project photographing the corner of Ellis and Jones streets in the Tenderloin
“I photograph the people that I meet
the random people that kind of come through there
but also just like the day-to-day kind of things that happen,” he said
and sometimes that’s going on when I’m there and I’m capturing it.”
But his images also capture more human elements of people who live in the Tenderloin
One shows four people sitting around — in wheelchairs and on overturned five-gallon buckets — deep in conversation and laughing
Another shows a woman gazing down at an older man lying next to a shopping cart stuffed with his clothes and personal belongings
Littered needles and tinfoil are in the background of many of the images
‘This is a reality that a family who lives there might be walking by every day,’ but not in their face,” Williams told KQED
He believes the biggest difference between his work and the man-on-the-street style videos that go viral on social media is the relationship he’s formed with the people he photographs
people living in nearby single-room occupancy housing or who are unhoused in the Tenderloin will gather on Ellis and Jones
who plasters his portraits onto a rotating collage on the corner building there
he’ll bring them a copy of the image
He’s gained the trust of people who at first refused to be photographed or yelled at him to leave
“A lot of the people have said to me once I put their images on the wall … ‘Now when people come through here and try to snap pictures of us
they see beautiful pictures of us on the wall and we’re larger than life,’” Williams said
“‘They’re looking up at us now and not looking down at us.’”
