2019-12-24 - Hometown Histories (Stories Worth Remembering) - The Librarian: Phyllis Fyfe - (August 2, 2019)

View this email in your browser Now Available On Our YouTube Page Hometown Histories (Stories Worth Remembering) - The Librarian: Phyllis Fyfe   Now available on our YouTube Channel - https://youtu.be/pRO3uaat2Gg Anita Nelson invites Phyllis Fyfe into the studio to share memories of a lifetime of community service. Phyllis, retired Ocean Township school librarian, remembers supporting Ocean’s first library—a set of bookshelves in the Wanamassa Fire house. She fought for the library’s move into Town Hall where it grew to be the county system’s most active branch. Today, she is a tireless moving force behind the “Friends of the Library”—and so much more. Anita Nelson, Museum Board member hosts this episode. Dallas Grove is the Executive Producer; Produced by Ted Dellinger; Music is by Bill Madden. Funding for Hometown Histories was provided by the New Jersey Cultural Trust.
