Mayor Caggianiano died shorty after he was elected. When I look back, I see this man, an elder statesman, carrying out his purpose.  The elderly people of Lynn loved him and wanted him to "lead the city into the promised Land" as  I see it. They had been very active for years, running a free lunch program out a local church. Rallying around the campaign to get him elected, I sat at Council meeting along with hundreds of seniors, and, as I wrote before, we all saw him speak "to"the Council as a man of the people. (Now I have to close this piece because it's time for lunch.)
