This evening, Friday, May1, there was a dinner to commemorate Kevin Sorgi and his 28 years of service as Town Treasurer and Collector. I took a few minutes to walk around the room at Lantana’s and ask people about Kevin. This is what they said:

“Kevin Sorgi is short in stature but a giant of a human being. Everyone in Milton should help him in his next career.”

Brian Walsh, Town Moderator

“Kevin sorgi is one of the most decent people I know . . .honest, sincere, and a great guy and a guy that was great at that job.  .   . he was not, however,  a great softball player.”

Phil Murphy, attorney and bandleader

“Kevin is and always has been a real gentleman, which explains why, even more than his diligent professional efforts, he consistently was the top vote getter in town.”

Senator Brian A. Joyce

“We’re well rid of him <g >. . . [but] he has been a terrific friend to me and a terrific mentor to me and to the town.”

John Shields, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen

“I enjoy him [Kevin] so much.  .  .his incredible wit and dry sense of humor.”

John Phelan, Asst Superintendent, Milton Public Schools

“He’s very kind and a good listener and he absorbs everything you tell him.”

Eleanor Foster, Milton resident and dear friend
