Unveiling of Portrait of Former Mayor Sefatia Romeo Theken of Gloucester

What an incredible night at Gloucester City Hall celebrating former Mayor Sefatia Giambanco Romeo Theken with the unveiling of her official portrait before a standing-room-only crowd!

Sefatia’s passion for Gloucester, its people, and its fishing heritage has left a lasting mark on our city. Her leadership through challenges—from winter storms to the COVID-19 pandemic—showed both strength and compassion, and her tireless advocacy continues to inspire us all.

It was wonderful to see so many gathered to honor someone who has given so much of herself in service to our community.

Congratulations, Sefatia, on this well-deserved recognition and on your portrait taking its rightful place among Gloucester’s leaders in City Hall!
