The Background on the Town
East Longmeadow was a much different town when I grew up here, it is something entirely different now. There is an excellent book on East Longmeadow written by John Y. Hess that shows what East Longmeadow was when I grew up here. I hope to write a book about the “New” and “Less-Improved” East Longmeadow and the people that should be investigated.
It is amazing how the News Media will dare to write about these people, but won’t write anything that is true about the Grazianos or other people in the Town; not one News Agency has told the truth about what has gone on here, and how are family has been harassed because we wouldn’t give our home to them! The Town has painted our home as a “Dump” devalued it again and again. Our home is a Custom 6/7 Room L-Cape with an 18 by 30 Foot Country Kitchen, with three bedrooms, Solid Exposed Beams, large laundry and hobby room of the kitchen, hand-built cabinets, breakfast bar … and we have two lots (see Our Home Section). It is not “a sub-standard barely-habitable sh#thole” as it has been referred to.

The News Media – Funny how they can go to Graziano Gardens all the time, but they can’t tell the truth about the Business and everything that they do, and what the Town has allowed them to do to our Family and Home!
The News Media has a responsibility to serve all the People with the “Whole Truth,” not just what they want to tell or show. “Selective News,” is not the News … it’s the version they want to tell, less anything that would resemble the whole picture so that people could actually see the truth! This would allow people to make an “Informed Opinion or Decision.”
