Puzo, was quoted in the Hingham Anchor’s article “Hingham’s Many Volunteers Appreciated: ‘They Play a Pivotal Part in Charting the Town’s Future.’” Puzo described the important role that the town’s many volunteers play, stating that they are “at the core of Hingham’s commitment to self-governance… The town quite literally could not exist as it does without its volunteers.”
