Monica MacDougall and Jack Beres have been there for each other during the pandemic: Glimmers of light in a pandemic year Cameron Fields, cleveland.com CLEVELAND, Ohio — Monica MacDougall doesn’t need to know about the latest scam-baiting video her husband Jack Beres watched on YouTube. But because she loves and cares for Beres, she listens to him. “And then same with me, I’m babbling about something or the other, and he listens,” MacDougall said in a phone interview with cleveland.com. MacDougall, 72, and Beres have been married for almost 24 years and live in Painesville, where they’ve resided most of their lives. Throughout the pandemic, both have found solace in various activities.
