Local business owners instrumental in 4th license plate distribution

Posted

To the editor,

Last week’s letter to the editor inadvertently left out our extra special thank-you to Joe and Celeste Coehlo, owners of Safeway, for all their help with the Fourth of July Committee’s license plate distribution day. They serviced more than 30 cars with license plate removal issues. They also gave us screws, bolts and lubricant, free of charge.

Celeste and Joe also bought 65 license plates for their fleet of rental cars and personal cars.

We can’t thank them enough for all their help. They are examples of what living in this wonderful town of Bristol is all about!

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
