Southborough family thrives on challenges and joys of being deaf

By Jane Keller Gordon, Contributing Writer
Southborough – 

"Mary Silvestri Simmons leads a busy life in Southborough as a wife, mother, artist, member of the Southborough Cultural Arts Council (SCAC), and owner -along with her husband Justin – of a new business, Expressions Art Bar.  
Although both she and her husband are deaf, it has not prevented them from doing what they love and being a force in the community."
“A deaf person does not have a lot of job opportunities,” she said. “One of the easiest solutions is to be your own boss, to create an environment in which I can ensure that I have communication.”
