Grover and his wife Cindy ran the Cupboard and had countless friends and if you grew up in Gloucester you were touched by the “Cupboard Experience” that they created and maintained all these years.
This forwarded by John Nelson –
Hi Joey:
I wanted to pass along the attached obit for Grover Hudson Carter. This wonderful man ran The Cupboard on Tolman Ave for years and passed away in Georgia this past weekend. I grew up across the street from you Grandmother and can’t count the number of cones, burgers and goodies Grover supplied. For a few years in the late 60’s/ early 70’s, Grover and Cindy held an end-of-year, Tolman Ave ‘block party’ as they closed up The Cupboard for the season; a great pick-me-up for a young lad bummed because summer was over and school had started up. He helped make my childhood in Stage Fort Park memorable and magical.
I will miss him.

Here’s a link about the Cupboard I wrote a while back – the Cupboard – A Gloucester Classic
If you go to the blog and type in the search term Cupboard there are many posts
There was a time when Gorton’s offered wonderful time-saving fishcake products. Canned ‘ready-to-fry’, Gorton’s brand frozen fishcakes and fishballs, and best of all, Red L brand frozen fish cakes made with exactly the right proportion of salt cod. But no more.
So here’s a question for readers …. Are fishcakes obsolete?
For posterity, here is a recipe from our artist friend, the late Mary (Desmond) Lizotte. It came from her mother. Mary’s father was from Nova Scotia and captain of a square rigger.

Editor’s note from Joey: Best fish cakes ever were made by old timer and good friend of ours at the dock who has passed a long time ago now- Leo “The Flounder” Ciaramitaro but Leo’s fish cakes would have a whole lot of garlic in them. God, Frank and I used to pound down a tray of them at the dock.
“Acceptance is such an important commodity, some have called it “the first law of personal growth.”
Peter McWilliams (1949 -2000)
He went on to say: “Acceptance is not a state of passivity or inaction. I am not saying you can’t change the world, right wrongs, or replace evil with good. Acceptance is, in fact, the first step to successful action. If you don’t fully accept a situation precisely the way it is, you will have difficulty changing it. Moreover, if you don’t fully accept the situation, you will never really know if the situation should be changed.”
Williams was a native of Detroit who attended Eastern Michigan University and Maharishi International University. His 1975 book on transcendental meditation, The TM Book, was a best seller. He went on to write nearly 40 more books in the self-help genre and worked extensively with Werner Erhard in the awareness training movement. He was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 1996 and was a proponent of the legalization of marijuana. His last books on the “absurdity of consensual crimes” became popular with the Libertarian community.
