Please say hi to our certified therapy dog, Chappy! He is our official greeter at the funeral home in Falmouth. He loves people, his toy (obviously), and a good long walk.

Congrats Debbie! Well deserved! If you know Debbie you know how dedicated she is to the mission of the YMCA. She is a tremendous asset to their organization and her community at large.

YMCA Southcoast is thrilled to announce our new Chief Operating Officer, Debbie Fringuelli. Debbie brings 28 years of dedicated service to the YMCA movement beginning her career with the Old Colony YMCA in East Bridgewater and joining YMCA Southcoast in March 2015. As Senior Executive Director of the Gleason Family YMCA, she provided leadership across multiple branches contributing to strong growth.

In 2025, Debbie served as the Interim President & CEO of YMCA Southcoast for eight months prior to the appointment of Lucria Ortiz as President & CEO. Debbie is deeply committed to strengthening communities and building meaningful collaborations that respond to the evolving needs of those we serve. Her strong people-connecting style is evident in her cohesive staff teams and deep relationships she builds across our various communities.

YMCA Southcoast is very fortunate to have Debbie take over all operations of our Association. Please join us in congratulating Debbie!

Here comes Santa !

Winter burials aren’t easy on the cemetery staff because of frost and or snow. Some cemeteries will use this propane device to thaw the ground before the digging process begins .

NOT TYPICALLY USED IN CHATHAM KENT

But you've likely not seen one before-

A cemetery ground heater, or grave warmer, thaws frozen soil to allow for winter burials and cremations. It uses propane or charcoal to generate intense heat, melting frost and softening earth so crews can dig graves, preventing major delays and disruptions to services. These devices, often large, insulated metal boxes, are placed directly over the burial spot and can thaw about a foot of soil in a few hours, making winter interments feasible.
