By MyFM’s Claire Beverly – The founder of the Hopkinton Independent has passed away. The paper confirms Sarah Lothrop Duckett died on Friday at the age of 77 after a period of declining health. She founded the community-oriented paper in 1999 and sold it to David Bagdon and Susanne Odell Farber in 2018. Duckett was also a volunteer for several town committees and nonprofits and among other things helped create the Hopkinton Senior Center. Her husband Frank passed away last November. They’d been married 47 years.
Is the tradition of trick or treating fading?
