12/29/2020 John Barry III, left, Councilors Albert Vitali Jr. and Meghan Kallman PAWTUCKET – The City Council last week said farewell to three members with a combination of nearly 50 years in local government, giving a resolution-filled sendoff to its longest-serving member, John Barry III, as well as Councilors Albert Vitali Jr. and Meghan Kallman. Councilors were particularly effusive in their praise of Barry, saying he is the epitome of what a district councilman should be. They said Barry has been relied on for honesty and sound advice for 33 years as councilman. Attorney Jon Anderson spoke of when his parents, Mabel and George, first recruited Barry to run in District 4, and how Barry has served with distinction since, showing a never-ending care for the “forgotten people” of Pawtucket who struggle to get by.
