I've Got That Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy Down in My Heart

Word on the street is that the last act of Massillon's former First Lady, Joy Cicchinelli, was to call the Massillon Schools Superintendent and a Massillon School Board member to whine and complain that then Mayor elect, and now Mayor, Kathy Catazaro-Perry, was involved in a trophy ceremony for the Lady Tigers basketball team.

The alleged ceremony was on a Friday night, December 30th, about one day before Catazaro-Perry officially took control of the debt riddled mess we know as Massillon city government, the giant "vat of red ink" that our former mayor left for her.

Joy's particular gripe this time was that Catazaro-Perry shouldn't have been involved in the ceremony because Joy's husband, Frank, was still the mayor for another day or so.

And every minute counts.

Of course, neither Cicchinelli was reported to be in attendance that night, as the event was not a football game.

This last temper tantrum for the former First Lady is symbolic of her well known petty behavior.

We wonder if Catazaro-Perry's husband has been calling the city auditor to complain about all the debt that was dumped on his wife.

We doubt it.

Hopefully, we have seen the last of these types of petty antics with the change in administrations.
