Remembering Melvin Mason, Regionalization Update With Jim Gildea

In this episode, reporter Eugene Driscoll remembers a colleague who passed away suddenly, then switches gears for an update on the work of the Ansonia-Derby school regionalization committee. Melvin Mason, editor of the Stratford Star newspaper, died Sept. 26. He was just 43 years old. Melvin was previously a Valley reporter with The Connecticut Post, and he freelanced for The Valley Indy. He lived in Derby until he married his wife, Allison, two years ago. Driscoll recalls conversations he had with Melvin, and plays a clip from a Valley Indy video interview on which Melvin appeared. The second half of the podcast begins around the 15 minute mark and features a 30-minute interview with Jim Gildea, the chairman of the Ansonia-Derby school regionalization committee. Gildea says the group will probably choose a consultant at its Oct. 22 meeting. Gildea is also the chairman of the Derby school board, and updates listeners on new security measures in the district.
