HI SUN SPOTS: I am trying to locate a very nice, young lady who worked as a nursing assistant at the St. Marys’ d’Youville Pavilion this past spring and summer. Her first name is Becky, and I do not have her last name. She may live in the area of Sabattus or Wales. 

Any help someone can give me will be greatly appreciated. I can be reached at 207-743-3462 after 6 p.m. or leave me a message. I will return your call. Thank you. — Steve of Greene.

RESPONSE: Let’s hope Becky sees this and calls you. Thank you for including a phone number so that Becky or another reader can call.
