The SandPaper is deeply saddened to announce that one of its own has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.
Associate Editor Maria Scandale has been an integral part of The SandPaper family for more than three decades, covering Barnegat Light and business news as well as community events like Chowderfest. She is currently unable to work, and a GoFundMe campaign has been set up by her family to offset the cost of her care.
