Legislator Renna Recognizes Katie Schrader As Irish American Of Distinction
On Tuesday, March 24, 2026, members of the Suffolk County Legislature gathered for the Fourth Annual Irish American Heritage Celebration! Suffolk County Legislator RJ Renna was proud to recognize Katie Schrader of Lindenhurst as his 2026 nominee!
Born Kathleen Elizabeth O’Connell, “Katie” descends from Irish immigrants on both sides of her parentage and was raised with a strong pride in her Irish roots. Katie grew up in Babylon, New York, and attended Marymount University in Arlington, Virginia, where she received her Bachelor of Arts in Communications. Katie spent many years working at nonprofit organizations, including Special Olympics International, New York Special Olympics, New York Academy of Sciences, and the American Museum of Natural History. After taking a break to raise her children, Katie began working for the Village of Lindenhurst as the Secretary to the Mayor and Village Board and was later appointed as Village Clerk.
In 2021, Katie was asked to join the founding Committee of the Lindenhurst St. Patrick’s Parade as Secretary. Working together with RJ Renna, David Crowe and Kevin McCaffrey, the
Parade made an impressive inaugural debut in 2022 and continues to be one of the premier community celebrations of Irish heritage and tradition, drawing thousands of parade goers to the Village of Lindenhurst.
In addition to the Parade Committee, Katie currently sits on the South Shore Theatre Experience Board of Directors and is Program Director of the New York Long Island Film Festival.
Said Legislator Renna:
“It was my honor to recognize Katie Schrader
as my 2026 Irish American of Distinction! I have had the privilege of working alongside Katie as co-founders of the Lindenhurst St. Patrick’s Parade and as part of the Village of Lindenhurst administration. Katie truly stands out as a tremendous public servant, and I am grateful for her hard work for our community. Congratulations, Katie!
Suffolk County Legislator Richard “RJ” Renna proudly represents Suffolk County’s Fourteenth Legislative District, which encompasses the Villages of Babylon and Lindenhurst, parts of West Babylon, Copiague, and North Lindenhurst, and Babylon’s barrier beach communities.
Lindenhurst Business Students Take A Trip To UBS Arena
Lindenhurst High School DECA Business Club and Business Marketing students recently received a firsthand look at the intersection of sports, business, and marketing during an exclusive Sports Business Day at UBS Arena.
The students received a behind-the-scenes look at how a major sports franchise operates, with
staff from the New York Islanders sharing insights on everything from data-driven decisionmaking and sponsorship activation to building a loyal fan base. The discussions highlighted how thoughtful marketing is crucial not only for success on the ice but also for fostering a strong connection with the community.
Throughout the day,
Lindenhurst students learned about key industry concepts, mirroring global trends in sports management such as the use of analytics and the growing demand for digital content. The experience helped students begin to picture the large array of career possibilities within the world of sports business, from marketing and analytics to operations and community relations.

How Much Is Your Time Worth?
By JoAnn Cilla
I have been thinking about this question for the past few weeks. I asked friends and fellow business owners the question, and most of them said they never really thought about it. So, I will ask you. How much is your time worth?
Not your salary, not your hourly rate on paper, but the value of an hour of your life?
Finding the answer to this simple question can mean the difference between success and failure in many areas of life and business. We all get the same 24 hours in a day, yet we treat those hours very differently. Most people treat time like it’s money. Some invest their hours; others spend their hours. Unfortunately, too many people waste their precious time without even realizing it.
If you earn $100,000 a year, a rough breakdown might suggest your time is worth about $50 an hour. But that number is misleading. It only reflects what someone is willing to pay you, not what your time is worth. Your real value is tied to how you choose to use it.
I learned that time can be separated into three distinct parts: earning, building, and living.
Earning time is what most people focus on. It’s the hours spent working and generating income. This is where most people come up with their “hourly rate.”
Building time is the time you invest in skills, relationships, and ideas. Reading, learning, creating, and networking are activities that may not pay you back immediately, but they dramatically increase your future earning power and freedom.
Finally, there’s Living Time. These are the moments spent with
family, and friends creating personal experiences. Ironically, this is often the most valuable time of all, yet it’s the easiest to neglect. “You can always make more money, but you can’t make more time.”
So how do you determine what your time is worth? Start by asking better questions: Is this activity moving me forward or keeping me stuck? Would I pay someone else to do this? Am I wasting my time with this person or doing this job?
Effective people guard and protect their time. They delegate what doesn’t require their unique abilities. They say no more often than yes. And they align their time with what matters most, not just what feels urgent.
The key to changing your patterns is to stop thinking of time as something you “have” and start thinking of it as something you “invest.” Every hour has a return, either positive or negative.
In the end, your time is worth exactly what you decide it is. Make good decisions!

A Powerful New Memoir Explores Love, Waiting, And The Unspoken Realities Of Caregiving
And I Wait…, a deeply moving debut memoir, offers an intimate look into the emotional landscape of caregiving, resilience, and the quiet moments that shape us.
Through honest and reflective storytelling, And I Wait… captures the experience of standing beside a loved one through illness—where hope, uncertainty, and strength coexist. With a voice that is both compassionate and unflinching, the author invites readers into the spaces often left unspoken: the waiting rooms, the pauses, and the life that exists between before and after.
This memoir
resonates with caregivers, healthcare professionals, and anyone who has faced the complexity of loving someone through difficult transitions. It challenges the notion that there is “nothing more to be done,” offering instead a perspective rooted in presence, dignity, and enduring connection.
And I Wait… is now available on Amazon.

About the Author
The author brings a unique perspective shaped by both personal experience and a deep understanding of care, illuminating the emotional truths that
connect us all.
Dr. MaryAnn Fragola, Doctor of Nursing Practice, is Chief of Wellness Services at New York Cancer and Blood Specialists, where she specializes in Supportive and Palliative care. For more than twenty-five years, she has guided patients and families through serious illness, focusing on dignity, comfort, and quality of life.
And I Wait… was born from a deeply personal experience. When her father was diagnosed with cancer, Dr. Fragola found herself on the other side of medicine — not as the clinician, but as the daughter. Writing this memoir became
part of her own healing and a way to give voice to the complex emotions caregivers often carry but rarely express.
Through her work and her writing, she remains committed to helping patients and families navigate illness with honesty, compassion, and presence. She hopes this story helps caregivers recognize that many of the thoughts and emotions they experience during illness and grief are more normal than they realize.
Outside of her professional life, she enjoys reading, time with her family, and the loyal companionship of her German shepherds.
