Registry Employee Joe Dowd, presented with a Certificate of Appreciation from Register Ashe

On Wednesday, June 29th, Register Ashe presented Registry employee Joe Dowd with a Certificate of Appreciation for his outstanding work performance and positive attitude. Joe arrives to work each day ready to give his all to the Registry, his fellow co-workers and the customers that he assists in the Photo Department. He greets all with a smile on his face and never has an unkind word to say to or about anyone. Joe's willingness to help out whenever he is needed and often when not even asked, is an inspiration to all of us here at the Registry of Deeds. We are honored to work along side Joe and want to congratulate him on this very well deserved recognition. Congratulations Joe and thank you for all that you do!

Register Ashe visits the Palmer Senior Center

On Wednesday, June 15th, Register Ashe had the opportunity to meet with residents of Palmer at their Senior Center. The Register gave a brief overview of the role that our office plays in real estate transactions that occur in Hampden County. Register Ashe also discussed how the homestead law has changed due to the recent legislative changes that took place on March 16, 2011. Caitlin and Laurette were on hand to assist those in attendance by providing them with basic information relative to their property, as well as record homesteads for those who were interested. Register Ashe would like to thank Director Erin Pincince for graciously welcoming us to Palmer's Senior Center and we look forward to visiting again in the future!
