Murphy visits My Sister's Place thrift shop in Ansonia


BHcare President and CEO Marilyn Cormack chats Wednesday with U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy when he visited My Sister's Place thrift shop in Ansonia. The store received heavy smoke damage after a March 11 fire next door at the Asylum Nightclub. All proceeds from the store's sales benefit The Umbrella, a program for victims of domestic violence run by BHcare, a behavioral health organization.


My Sister's Place manager Nancy Cahoon, left, and donations coordinator Christine Boulay are happy to get items donated by Murphy and his office staff.


Ansonia Mayor James Della Volpe talks with Murphy Wednesday. The store is starting to get back to normal, but Cahoon said it is unclear when it will reopen.
