Letter: Congratulations to Little Compton writer Marjorie Leary

To the editor:

A hearty congratulations to Marjorie Leary, the Wilbur McMahon School (WM) for her statewide fiction contest award! What a deserving honor!

I know Marjorie from substitute teaching at Wilbur McMahon (and other East Bay schools).

Marjorie stands out. She’s respectful; attentive and rides her bicycle to school! It seems Marjorie has those innate leadership abilities among her peers. She is headed for success!

Despite a seeming diminution of the learning environment at WM; Marjorie stands tall!

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.
