Attention Fairfield County parents, historians, and memory-keepers: How many thousands of photos are currently trapped on your smartphone? We are living in the most photographed generation in human history, yet we risk leaving behind the least amount of physical evidence of our lives. Our family legacies are being buried in a digital cloud, waiting to be forgotten, corrupted, or lost to a forgotten password.
Today, local studio Dariusz Terepka Photography is officially launching a community awareness initiative and publishing a powerful new article: "The Digital Dust Trap: Why Your Memories Deserve to Be Printed."
This isn't just a blog post—it’s a wake-up call for every parent who has promised themselves they would "get around to printing those photos" but hasn't had the time.
Why you should read it today:
<ul><li>The Hidden Risk: Discover why relying solely on cloud storage and hard drives is putting your family history at risk.</li><li>The Psychological Impact: Learn how growing up in a home surrounded by physical, printed family portraits tangibly boosts a child's self-esteem.</li><li>The 3-Step Rescue Plan: Get actionable, stress-free advice on how to rescue your favorite photos from your phone and turn them into timeless, touchable family heirlooms.</li></ul>
Don’t let your children’s childhood disappear into a digital dust trap. Join the conversation, read the essay today, and learn how to preserve your legacy for generations to come.

St Theresa School

Get ready to shake, rattle, and roll! On Saturday, May 30, 2026, acclaimed tribute artist Lamar Peters will electrify the stage at St. Theresa School Trumbull with his unforgettable Ultimate Elvis Tribute Show. Showtime begins at 7:00 PM (doors open at 6:00 PM) for an evening packed with hits, dazzling showmanship, and the timeless magic of Elvis Presley.
This one-night-only performance will transport audiences through the golden eras of Elvis—from the rockabilly roots of the '50s to the Vegas glitz of the '70s. Expect to hear fan favorites like “Jailhouse Rock,” “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” “Suspicious Minds,” and “Burning Love”—all delivered with the uncanny vocals and magnetic presence that have made Peters a standout in the tribute world.
Born into a musical family in Astoria, NY, Lamar Peters took the stage at the age of five in his father, Gregg Peters (of King of Queens fame), Elvis shows. He’s since carved a remarkable path—the first Elvis tribute artist to play B.B. King Blues Club in Times Square, a top finalist in the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Contest, and a national touring act.
Tickets: $45 each for this BYO food and drink event and are available now by calling Rich at <a href="tel:203-258-8668">203-258-8668</a> or by stopping in St. Theresa Rectory 5301 Main Street Trumbull M-F until 9:00am - 4:00 pm.
