Legislator Leslie Kennedy hosted her annual clean the stream event with local Boy Scout Troops last Sunday. This year they met at Brady Park in Smithtown to get down into the Nissequogue River Tributaries and rid them of debris and pollution. Boy Scout Troop 3 of Smithtown, Troop 888 of Smithtown, Troop 111 of Nesconset, and Troop 214 of Hauppauge took part in the stream clean up in The Village of the Branch & Smithtown proper. The Nissequogue River is a significant fresh water river on Long Island with
various types of aquatic life living beneath its surface; it is one of the few places where one can find Largemouth Bass on Long Island. The Local Scouts were eager to clean the tributaries that lead to this river, and were not afraid of the dirt and the mud. The Scouts were aided with tools on loan from Suffolk County’s Department of Public Works in order to cut through the brush as well and rake up the debris that was found in the stream. All debris was collected and packaged in garbage bags for disposal.
Leslie Kennedy got down into the dirt with the Scouts on their mission to clean the stream and open seven culverts. “I am so proud of these boys who took an interest in their local environment, and have worked with me to clean up the pollution leading into the Nissequogue,” said Legislator Kennedy, “Together I believe we have made a difference and we will continue to do so year after year in order to protect our exquisite Nissequogue River.”
We remember all who have served, thank all who do serve and support all who will serve our great country.
Happy Memorial Day
From Your Neighbors At CLEANING THE STREAM - Legislator Leslie Kennedy with Scouts and leaders from Troops 3, 888, 111 and 214 at Brady Park in Smithtown.

with Jamie Lynn Ryan This week, I thought I’d throw it back to a classic from the archives, a column which received quite a bit of positive feedback leading up to last year’s Memorial Day. Reflecting on past traditions always tends to get the creative juices flowing, so to speak, and memories of family gatherings are no exception… There are many Memorial Day weekend traditions that people enjoy. Most of them tend to involve barbecues and beaches, bathing suits and sunbathing. Few take the time to truly appreciate the meaning of the holiday itself. I’ve written in the past of attending the annual service which takes place at Calverton National Cemetery, a mere two hours of the weekend designated to pay respects to those who have come before us and sacrificed so much for this nation. This brought to mind another, perhaps less traditional, “ceremony” which my grandfather and great uncle
used to enact each Memorial Day, and then again at Labor Day. Both veterans themselves, they had held on to their service uniforms and, ill-fitting as they were, would dig them out and don bits and pieces of them each year to take part in the annual “flag raising” in my grandfather’s backyard. For as long as I can remember, there stood a flagpole at one end of the lush green lawn, and from that pole hung Old Glory, proudly waving in the wind, for the entire summer. My grandfather and uncle would unfurl this flag each May and, with a mix of reverence and humor as they paraded in their snug jackets and trousers, would carefully raise it – and then, salute proudly. Come September, this same succession of events would take place in reverse, and the flag would be carefully stored away for another season. As a child, I can’t say I truly understood what was going on, nor did I appreciate the significance of the ordeal. Sure, there was a bit of tongue-in-
cheek humor to go along with the solemnity; but make no mistake; they took it all very seriously. Thankfully, there are pictures from a few of these ceremonies… along with the memories to last a lifetime. Last summer, as my grandparents’ house stood empty for the first time in 56 years, a “For Sale” sign staked on the front lawn, the family gathered one late spring afternoon to begin the process of going through belongings. The ceremonies of days gone by a distant memory at this point, a somewhat tattered flag still hung from the pole. Inspired, the “children” decided to raise a brand new flag, one last time, in honor of my grandfather, and all the wonderful summers spent in that backyard. As for the old flag, the last one my grandfather had hung, I kept it. And each time I drive by the old house, now filled with a new couple just beginning their lives, I look to see if the old flagpole still stands. It does, and the flag remains.

Spring’s Caprice By: Joan Amato
Puckered parched leaves Leftover from autumn’s spectacle Unwilling to succumb To winter’s hardened foe Dance merrily in open fields Swirl like mini tornadoes As wind twirls them Suspends them in midair to Frolic without despair That their time has come To dance their last dance Bronzed and mottled they hover Are lifted, swept up in whirling cadence Spinning to the whims of the capricious breeze Their color is no match for budding flora Shadows of former greenery That graced its host now lie bare Nothing for them to cling to Except life from the lift of the merry wind And the grace of its remembrance.
Elusive
By: James Gugluzza
In the serenity of love’s chosen eyes Sailing through golden tinged sunset Where its colors tenderly sing romantic lullabies Softly gliding past intimacy, she addresses forgiveness Who find two lovers looking beyond loneliness Their destiny becomes ignited, sleek-fitted embers Dancing from a past that calls upon today, extinguishing Fleeting moments, reminding one another of endless Possibilities that exist toward tomorrow’s hope Silently, destiny awaits in the shallows Of a rocky shoal, becoming a calming sea Riding waves firmly tilted toward pilgrims whose faith Derives from a renewed awakening, whereupon God’s mercy Comforting a lost heart, equally giving His Love to the Footsteps of a forgotten soul.

DID YOU KNOW? The Basenji is the only dog breed that does not bark! This does not mean that he is silent. He vocalizes in several ways from a delightful yodel to a hair-raising scream, along with the usual whimpers, whines and growls like other dogs. This highly intelligent breed was originally found in the Congo in Africa, and is a wonderful pet for the owner(s) who can stay a step ahead of him!

Moving Forward Further, it can enhance your level of satisfaction and feeling of well-being. In many cases, this effect can automatically be blended with the above paragraph on high esteem and self-fulfillment. By giving well-deserved thanks to others whom you come in contact with, both you and the other person have the potential to feel better. The key here is that it must be based on a factual, pleasant event. It cannot be accomplished with false praise. If this occurs, you will be looking at a person who feels good throughout the day and never gives a thought to the cause. Have you witnessed this in another person? Better yet, has it ever happened to you? Now, let’s bring all of this into the world of everyday living. Wouldn’t it be nice to learn some tips on how to turn a negative into a positive? Situation: Someone is driving and trying to cut into your lane with good reason. Some people (whatever their motive) will pull up closer to the car in front of them and not allow this. To add insult to injury, they will never make eye

Allergy And Dirty Ducts (NAPSI)—Allergies are nothing to sneeze at but you can make your home more comfortable for people who have allergies and improve your indoor air quality—by cleaning in an often forgotten place. Indoor air quality can be a big concern for many families. After all, in a typical six-room home, up to 40 pounds of dust— including dangerous chemicals and other pollutants—is created annually through everyday living. These contaminants
are pulled into the HVAC system and recirculated as much as seven times a day. Over time, this leads to built-up contaminants
in the ductwork. Since your heating and cooling system is the lungs of your home, you want to keep it clear.

The Power of Positive Thinking contact with you. Response: If this is happening to you, quickly take several deep breaths, slow down and wave that person to enter his/ her car in front of yours. In most cases, the person will give you a friendly wave and smile - and you will feel good about it too! Situation: You are walking behind an elderly person who is walking at a very slow pace, and the green light is about to turn red. Although she is in the proper crossing lane, she is in danger of being hit by an aggressive driver. Response: Walk rapidly until you are in front of her and gently suggest that you both walk faster to cross safely to the other side. If necessary (and with her permission), gently take her arm and proceed. Special Tip I have used the following method for many years with much success, and I now will pass it on to you. It consists of two simple parts: Part #1: Shortly before you fall asleep, think of all the good things you
could accomplish during the next day. Concentrate for a few moments on each one you have selected. What most people don’t realize is that, while you sleep, your subconscious takes over and “stores it” for the next day! Part #2: Upon waking (and continuing) throughout your early morning routine before breakfast, think of some good things you could do today, and don’t forget to include yourself if appropriate. Now, here’s the really interesting part; in most cases, this list will come easily to you. Do you know why? It’s because your subconscious worked most of the night to develop this for you! May I ask a favor for any of my readers who might be doubtful about this? Please give it a try. It will take a bit of practice to perfect this technique, but keep going. The results you obtain will be well worth the effort. Now, you are ready to move forward and give it a try. Remember to be patient with the process – it will pay you back in many ways. ~ Peace ~

Although there have been many books and articles written about the power of positive thinking, new findings about its importance in daily living are always surfacing. The old saying, “If life gives you lemons, make lemonade,” still holds true more than ever. We begin this update with a look at how attitudes are formed. To start, a stimulus enters your consciousness and ends with a response. However, in between the stimuli and response is what I like to call “the buffer zone,” where your brain makes a split-second decision whether to act favorably on the stimuli (hence the response will be more favorable), or the reverse will be true. If you are like most people, this type of interaction occurs with high frequency daily. In a broad sense, positive thinking is the carrier which turns negative thoughts into positive ones. Some examples of its many benefits include: giving you a pleasant feeling of high esteem, coupled with a sense of self-fulfillment. This can be enough to really make a person’s day without him/her realizing what caused it!

Building Bridges
A Grand Affair Dressed as their favorite characters, the secondgraders at Dogwood Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District celebrated their literacy skills with a Fairy Tale Ball on May 9th. Kings, queens, princes and princesses joined many of the famous characters found in some of the classic tales. As a culminating activity to their fairy tale unit, the
Students from Smithtown High School East and Smithtown High School West were selected to receive the Students Building Bridges Award. They were honored for their efforts in building bridges across communities and creating a more civil society at Suffolk County’s Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) program at Suffolk
County Community College. Each student was recognized with a citation from an elected official and a certificate from the Jewish Community Relations Council of Long Island. Pictured: Smithtown Central School District director of social studies Bryan Frank, Smithtown High School East students Jhanvi Ravishankar,

Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta recognized Evan Garland of Boy Scout Troop 75 at his recent Eagle Scout Court of Honor. Evan’s goal as young scout was to become an Eagle Scout in order to follow in the footsteps of his father and uncle, who were Eagle Scouts. His desire was so earnest that he joined the same troop, 75, that his father had been in when he became an Eagle Scout.
For his Eagle Scout project, Evan decided to do something that honored the veterans who died on September 11th, 2001. He consulted with the director of Calverton National Cemetery and they decided that he would construct a memorial in the section where the veterans who died on that fateful day were buried at Calverton. The memorial would include a walkway and a garden where the families
could come and pay tribute to their loved ones. Suffolk County Legislator Trotta said, “Evan you are going in the right direction by achieving the rank of Eagle Scout at the age of 16 and you will continue to excel because of your passion and dedication to the public and your community.” “I applaud your efforts and urge you to keep up the good work,” added Trotta.
Principal Renee Carpenter, also dressed the part of notable characters. In between each of the class performances, the students sang and danced for the audience. Invited guests to the Fairy Tale Ball were treated to a royal feast back in the classrooms after the characters made their grand exit.

Seeds of Friendship Fourth-graders in the Cares Club at Mills Pond Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District spent the afternoon of May 9th planting flowers and connecting with local senior citizens and residents of the St.
James Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center, located across the street from their school. As part of a 17-year club tradition, the students walked to the facility to participate in an afternoon of gardening alongside the
seniors. With their garden tools and gloves in hand, the students spent time beautifying the outdoor patio during their visit while working alongside the seniors.

species. They began by highlighting ten species from Long Island, USA. They expanded their focus to include ten such species from Costa Rica, Central America. By comparing these two regions, they concluded that while there are cultural differences and challenges that each region face, the struggles of their wildlife is extremely similar. The students are eager to learn more about other global communities, especially Costa Rica so that together they can work towards positive changes for these animals for the future.

On Thursday, May 10th, Town Officials and community leaders joined together with the Cianci family to dedicate the first rose bush of 65 to be planted, in honor of 5 year-old Lucas Cianci. The dedication ceremony kicked off a month long project to plant 65 roses throughout the township for Cystic Fibrosis awareness. Town officials have enlisted the help of community organizations who have volunteered to plant 65 Rose bushes by the months end. Supervisor Ed Wehrheim led the ceremony, Thursday afternoon, accompanied by Assemblyman Michael Fitzpatrick, Town Councilman Tom Lohmann, Town Clerk and acting Nesconset Chamber President Vincent Puleo, Superintendent of Highways Robert Murphy and Receiver of Taxes Deanna Varricchio. Department leaders (Parks, Youth Bureau, Town Attorney & Town Clerk) and administration staff were front in center as the first rose bush was planted for Lucas, who’s battle with cystic fibrosis has inspired the community. “We are grateful for the local community groups including our chambers and civics who are here
with us today who have committed to helping us plant 65 rose bushes by the months end. I would like to thank a very special guest here with us today; Lucas Cianci. Lucas, as you get older, just remember who else has genetic mutations... Superheroes! And we are honored to dedicate the first rose bush to our Superhero,” Supervisor Ed Wehrheim Lucas’ mother Emily Cianci held back tears holding onto her daughter Zoe and grandmother, Debbi Haupert a C.F. awareness advocate as Lucas was presented with a backpack filled with superhero toys and a kindle fire to keep him occupied while undergoing his routine treatments. Local Civic and Chamber of Commerce leaders in attendance included members of the Kings Park Chamber, Nesconset Civic and the Nesconset Chamber, the Smithtown Chamber of Commerce and The Community Association of greater St. James. Karen Aldrich of the Smithtown Youth Bureau has offered to include the 65 Roses project among community service opportunities for students. Local leaders including Rob Cartelli of the Smithtown Chamber of
Commerce, Tony Tanzi of the Kings Park Chamber, Vincent Puleo of the Nesconset Chamber and Kerry Maher-Weisse, Bill Capurso & Mario Mattera of the Community association of greater St. James all have made commitments to planting rose bushes at various plaza’s and parks in their respective Hamlets. Bob Souto & Marie Gruick volunteered the assistance of the Nesconset Civic Association to help with the planting. With every rose bush planted, the town will post photos with the number of roses planted to date, along with important health information on Cystic Fibrosis. Most people do not learn that they are a carrier (over 10 million in the U.S.) until a child has been diagnosed. By encouraging pre-conceptual screening in all women considering pregnancy and educating the public, we stand a fighting chance at eradicating Cystic Fibrosis once and for all. Residents who wish to get involved, can post a photo of their newly planted rose bush on instagram or facebook with the hashtag #65RosesSmithtown or send in a picture via e-mail at spio@tosgov.com now through May 31st.

Teachers Grace Barrett, Lauren Sturchio, and Maria Quinn, along with students in seventh and eighth grade English classes and Creative Connections, an art elective, hope to raise awareness into the part that human action plays in the destruction of animal species on our planet. As creative advocates for these animals, the students used their voices and artistic skills to communicate their message through poetry and paintings, and published a book called Restoring Voices. The motivational goal was to educate and raise awareness of endangered and threatened
shares poems written in English with Spanish translations about ten species from Long Island. The second part moves on to ten species the students selected from Costa Rica. After each poem and translation, you will find a startling fact that provides insight into the unique struggle of each species. Mrs. Barrett traveled to Costa Rica over the February break and presented the book to students in the Lincoln School in Heredia, Costa Rica. Lincoln is an international IB school that is seeking MYP status. Restoring Voices is an example that shows an MYP unit that includes statements of inquiry utilizing a global issue integrating English, world language, and visual art to communicate a message to an audience. If you’d like to purchase a book, please visit: www. lulu.com, and search for Restoring Voices. Proceeds from the book will support Alturas Wildlife Sanctuary in Costa Rica, which rehabilitates and nurtures wildlife with the hope of releasing the animals back to the wild. With these positive actions moving forward, we can truly restore voices.

Healthy ways to relieve stress throughout the day
S
tress affects people from all walks of life, and the causes of stress are as varied as the people it afflicts.
In its 2017 Stress in AmericaTM survey, the American Psychological Association found that the three most common sources of stress were the future of the nation (63 percent), money (62 percent) and work (61 percent). According to the National Institute of Mental Health, routine stress that becomes chronic can result in a host of negative side effects. Such stress can suppress the immune system, disrupt digestion and have an adverse effect on sleep. But men and women who feel stressed at the end of each day need not resign themselves to sleepless nights and/or weakened immune systems. A proactive approach to alleviating stress during the day can help men and women reduce their stress levels and avoid the negative side effects associated with chronic stress.
Walk away. The APA notes that taking a break from a stressor is one of a handful of healthy techniques that research has indicated is a successful way to reduce stress, both in the short- and long-term. If a project at work is proving especially stressful, step away for a short period of time to do something else, whether it’s to go for a brief walk or converse with a coworker about something unrelated to the project. Avoiding the stress entirely, especially if it’s a work project or a bill that must be paid, is not the answer. But a short break from the stressor and thinking about it can provide a new perspective and time to calm down. Meditate. When stressed out, men and women should not discount the potential benefits of meditation. Researchers from Johns Hopkins University examined more than 19,000 meditation
studies, ultimately concluding that mindful meditation can ease stresses like anxiety, depression and pain. The APA notes that such meditation has been found to reap immediate benefits, potentially helping people who can find time to meditate during the day to prevent their stress from accumulating throughout a hectic workday. Find time to exercise. The APA notes that research continues to support the notion that exercise is as beneficial to the mind as it is to the body. Exercising several days per week is especially beneficial to mind and body, but even 20-minute exercise sessions, including a walk around the grounds of an office complex or a quick swim during a lunch break, in the midst of stressful days can
help people combat stress for several hours afterward. Delegate more during the day. Work is the third-leading source of stress among Americans. Men and women who feel overworked may benefit by delegating more tasks during their days or simply stepping back and taking on less work. The potential effects on your career of taking on less work will likely pale in comparison to the toll chronic stress, which can contribute to heart disease and stroke, takes on your body. Stress is a part of daily life for many people. But there are several simple and quick ways for stressed out men and women to reduce their stress during the day.

A diet that includes lots of vegetables and fish can help men and women reduce their risk for cognitive decline.

orgetfulness can affect anyone. For example, few, if any, adults can say they have not experienced moments when they could not find their keys. And once the keys are found, people move on without giving much thought to why they did not immediately remember where they left their keys. Isolated incidents where people cannot recall where they placed their car keys or other minor bouts with forgetfulness do not occur by accident. In fact, the Harvard Medical School notes that they are likely byproducts of age-related changes in thinking skills. When people reach their 50s, chemical and structural changes in the brain may begin to occur, and these changes can affect a person’s ability to process memories. Father Time may be a formidable foe, but people can take steps to give their memories a boost as they get older: Embrace recognition instead of trusting recall. Dr. Joel Salinas, a neurologist who specializes in behavioral neurology and neuropsychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital, notes that human beings are better at recognition than recall. That means people are more likely to remember something they read, such as a note or a list, than something they’re simply told. Recognize the value of repetition. The Harvard Medical School notes that people might be more inclined to remember what they hear if they repeat it out loud. Names and addresses might be more easily remembered after they’re repeated out loud because repetition increases the

likelihood that the brain will record the information and be capable of retrieving it later. When studying for exams, many students repeat important points to themselves time and again, and that same approach can be applied by adults who are trying to improve their memories. Eat a healthy diet. A study published in 2015 in the journal Neurology found that people who eat healthy diets with lots of fruits, vegetables, nuts and fish and little alcohol and red meat may be less likely to experience declines in their memory and thinking skills. Authored by Andrew Smyth of McMaster University in Ontario and the National University of Ireland in Galway, the study followed more than 27,000 people in 40 countries for an average of roughly five years. All participants were 55 and older and had diabetes or a history of heart disease, stroke or peripheral artery disease. Those who ate the healthiest diets were 24 percent less likely to experience cognitive decline than people with the least healthy diets. Break things down. Breaking things down into small chunks also can help improve memory. If tasked with remembering something extensive, such as a speech, focus on a single sentence at a time, only moving on to the next sentence when you’re confident you have successfully committed the preceding sentence to memory. Periodic memory lapses are often nothing to worry about. But men and women concerned about maintaining their memories can employ various strategies to do just that.

“A Scout is Reverent” can be demonstrated in a variety of ways including the earning of the religious award of the Scout’s individual faith. As with all the religious emblems, these are not an award for Scouting skills, but rather an emblem authorized by the Girl Scouts of the USA to be worn on the Scout’s uniform after satisfactory completion of the necessary requirements. For the 7th to 9th grade Girl Scouts, the Menorah Award requires meaningful activities which will
increase her knowledge and experience within the context of Jewish living. The topics of interest are: Ethics, Heritage, the Calendar, Israel, the Arts and Women. Girl Scout Sarah Levine of Girl Scout Troop 1336 of Farmingville was presented with the Menorah on February 25, 2018 at Temple Beth Chai of Hauppauge during the annual Scout Sabbath services by Temple Beth Chai member and Girl Scout Leader Ilda Wistrich and was assisted in the

other necessary gear for the weekend. They stayed overnight in their tents, leaving the lean-to on the trail for use by Appalachian Trail through-hikers use. Scoutmaster DiSilvio added, “We did a 4.8 mile hike to the campsite and spent plenty of time on “Sal’s rock” (a rock formation overlooking the mountainside, named after one of the Troop 343 former Eagle scouts). The gnats were tolerable, less than last year, so that was a plus. We got rained on a little on Sunday morning while packing up our gear, but again, no complaints. The scouts all took it in stride and worked together as scouts should. This was another example of the great group of boys we have and why we are always happy to do anything we can for them. Last but certainly not least, a huge
thank you to the adults and new leaders that took time to attend and make this trip happen.” They had packed a lunch to eat along the way on Saturday, after they had hiked about 1.4 miles to the campsite and set up their tents. The scouts then took a 4.8 mile hike around the lake, and this distance will be applied to the Hiking Merit Badge. Dinner at the campsite included hot dogs and either chips or mac and cheese, which was cooked by the two patrols, with oatmeal and sausages for breakfast. The adults prepared their own dinner of salad, pasta with meatballs and sausages, and various appetizers. Breakfast was oatmeal and sausage and then they were on the trail to return to the parking lot and a return to Hauppauge following this monthly campout.

The scouts worked well together. They had no complaints being pack mules, which is exactly what you feel like when you’re laden with all the gear, supplies and food in your backpacks.” The youths with their five adult scouting volunteer leaders and scouting parents participated in an overnight camping trip, bringing everything they needed with them on their backs, including food, water, cooking utensils and

Honor Flight Long Island
It was an unforgettable scene at Islip MacArthur Airport this past weekend as teenage U.S. Naval Sea Cadets lined up at 6 a.m. in Honor Guard formation to help send off 50 World War II and Korean War veterans on a memorial trip to Washington DC. The Honor Guard carried the American flag that these veterans had fought so hard to defend, as well as flags representing each service branch of the U.S. military with which the veterans had served – the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard. The veterans hailed from villages and towns all over Nassau and Suffolk Counties, with the war stories they shared for this Honor Flightproviding a glimpse into the type of honorable duties performed by the 40,000+ veterans that reside on Long Island.
The Honor Flight veterans spent the entire day in Washington DC, visiting sites including the World War II and Korean War Memorials, as well as The Women in Military Service for America Memorial, before returning to Islip long after taps would have played. The complimentary trip was a small tribute to those from Long Island that served our nation in war. “Your country said that it needed you, and you said, ‘Yes, I will go,’” the 50 veterans were told by Bill Jones, the President of Honor Flight Long Island. “You had never been out of your hometown, yet you found yourselves in places you’d never heard of. At a time of your lives when you should have been concerned with simple things…your high school prom, maybe applying to college…maybe settling
down and starting a family of your own…you, as ordinary citizens were asked to put on a uniform in service to your country. I thank you for answering the call to duty and the privilege of escorting you to yourmemorial.” Jones was joined by 50+ volunteers who served as escorts for each of the veterans. After the morning began with the Naval Sea Cadets’ Honor Guard ceremony (the youths were from the Theodore Roosevelt Division based in East Moriches), the veterans were whisked off on their flight to tour DC sights. Upon return to Islip MacArthur Airport, there was a crowd of more than 200 waiting, and again the Theodore Roosevelt Division Naval Sea Cadets were in formation welcoming the veterans back to Long Island soil, with many a misty eye in
the airport. Some highlights of the service of those on the Honor Flight: Army Air Force mechanic and gunner Stanley Pollack, of Wading River, served aboard B-29 bombers in the Pacific Theater in WWII. “Flying through anti-aircraft was the most harrowing as the enemy shot shells at us in puffs and flak attacks.” Navy Yeoman Peter Pascale, of Ridge, was on a ship one-half mile out from the invasion of Iwo Jima and was in range of the USS Indianapolis when it sunk following a secret mission that directly contributed to the end of WWII. Marine Corps rifleman Emanuel Poretta remembered a “crazy thing” in Korea. He was taking a shower from a truck with hot water. “A red alert sounded, and I found my rifle, helmet and ammo belt. No clothes!” Poretta was left to hand out supplies in his birthday suit. Richard Cardone of Farmingdale was a Navy Damage Controlman during the Korean War. When a terrible accident happened aboard ship, he saved the lives of two trapped men, carrying the unconscious men to safety. “All my training in the Navy really prepared me for it.” Edwin Cartoski, of
Greenport, served as a WWII Marine Corps pilot. When Admiral Halsey lost three destroyers and 100 aircraft to a typhoon, Cartoski flew Corsairs and Hell Cats from dawn to dusk straight off factory lines to California so they could be shipped to the war zone. Sgt. Tess Pierce Garber, from Jericho, was a WWII teletype operator in the Marine Signal Corps. Among the secret daily reports she saw from the battlefield was one with terrible news – it carried the name of the only son of her Mom’s friend; he’d been killed in action. Gennaro Iorio, from Bellmore, was an MD in the US Army Medical Corps in WWII, assigned to hospitals in France and Germany, and he assisted the Chaplain in travels to comfort the injured. George Israel, of Long Beach, was an executive officer aboard a Navy ship in the Korean War that was caught in a typhoon with 200 mph winds and ship rolls of 53 degrees! Army veteran Charles Ludrosky, of Wantagh, used a poncho to cover his fox hole as rains poured down upon him on the front lines in the Korean War. He received three Bronze Stars. Val Marino was a fighter pilot with the Air Force flying daily missions against Russian MIGs in
Korea. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for completing an amazing 125 missions and also awarded a Silver Star! He later became a research test pilot, and last year was appointed to a Presidential Advisory Board due to his North Korean experiences. Robert Anziano of Islip Terrace joined the Navy, havingbeen in a junior Navy program akin to the Naval Sea Cadets.As an instrument technician at a Naval Air Station, he saluted Tyrone Power every morning – a swashbuckling film star who was also in uniform. Coast Guard veteran William O’Brien, of Massapequa Park, boarded foreign vessels in NY waters and was schooled by the Atomic Energy Commission in the use of radioactive detectors. The Honor Guard of theTheodore Roosevelt Division of the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps includes cadets ages 13 to 18. The cadets train out of the U.S. Coast Guard Station in East Morichesand hail from all over Suffolk County. The Naval Sea Cadet program focuses on developing cadets’ abilities in seamanship, instilling in cadets the virtues of good citizenship, moral principles and public service, and the program inspires young men and women to reach their fullest potential.

SUFFOLK ZONE 2 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MAY 23, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com
May’s Charity of the Month is:
A team of Investors Bank employees recently volunteered their time to turnover garden beds, weed and plant at the Options for Community Living Greenhouse and gardens located in Medford, New York. Options – a Long Island not-for-profit serving people with chronic physical and mental illnesses – operates a Greenhouse where residents grow flowers and vegetables as well as plants that are sold at seasonal fundraising events and at the Options Thrift Store, located at 392 Hawkins Avenue, Ronkonkoma, New York. The Investors Bank employees helped weed and prepare the soil for planting, installed screening to help protect the garden from the deer and rabbit populations and planted vegetables and flowers. “The volunteers were so wonderful. I am
thankful for their help getting us ready for the planting season,” said Options’ Horticulturist Jason Mullen. “Their impact will go far beyond the work they have done because we will be able to use the revitalized garden beds for many seasons to come.” “It has been a pleasure to volunteer at the Options Greenhouse,” said Investors Bank Branch Manager Amanda Seppi. “We love having the opportunity to go out into the community to help the people around us who need it most.” Investors Bank encourages all of its employees to volunteer in the community whenever possible, including carving out time during the workday for special opportunities. “Our company believes community commitment is a mindset that influences how we live our lives and
conduct business every day,” Seppi said. Options for Community Living provides care coordination and affordable supportive housing to assist Long Islanders to live independently with dignity in the community. The Greenhouse provides a pre-vocational training opportunity for individuals interested in learning basic horticultural skills. Options’ residents find growing and nurturing plants in a supportive environment to be therapeutic and productive. Fresh vegetables grown in the gardens this summer will also help supplement the residents’ meals. “Eating a healthy diet is so important for our residents and being able to provide fresh vegetables grown in our own gardens is a major benefit,” stated Mullen.
PUZZLE ANSWERS:
Lisa Gatti is the CEO & Founder of PalO-Mine Equestrian, Inc., a comprehensive therapeutic equine program that uses horses to facilitate growth, learning and healing for individuals with disabilities and for other vulnerable populations. Through persistence, hard work and a passion to serve others, Lisa opened Pal-O-Mine in 1995 as a 501(C)(3) non-profit. Pal-O-Mine grew from having two programs, eight horses and 80 students per week to 11 programs, 25 horses and 400 students per week - and they continue to grow today! Individuals of all ages are welcome to take part in the programs they offer. They operate with five full-time employees, 35 independent contractors and 80 volunteers a week. Their riding instructors have experience with the following diagnoses: Autism Spectrum Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Sensory Processing Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Neurological Disorders, Cerebral Palsy, Traumatic Brain Injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida, Genetic Disorders and Emotional Disturbances. Every day, they have a different school drop off children at their location to benefit from their organization; they also offer group programs, individual lessons, corporate workshops and a program
specifically designed for military members. If your company is interested in participating in a Corporate Leadership Program, Pal-O-Mine is the place for you! They offer Corporate Retreats, Team Building Workshops, Staff Development and Leadership and Management Skill Programs. When participating in one of these Corporate Leadership Programs, your employees will work not only with each other, but with horses as well. The benefits of working with horses are boundless! Horses are prey animals, and because of that they must be very aware of their environment. They also live in the moment and are completely honest. The way an individual interacts and reacts with a horse is similar to the way they interact with their peers, customers and work groups. People tend to interpret horse behavior and emotions through the lens of their personal perception. How they interpret horses can often be a metaphor for their work, their attitudes and their relationships. To learn more about their Corporate Leadership Programs, please contact Lisa Gatti at LGatti@Pal-O-Mine.org. Pal-O-Mine also offers many volunteer and donation opportunities. If you are interested in volunteering with or donating to this heart-warming organization, please contact their Program Director, Carol Ann Guerriero, at 631.348.1389 or CGuerriero@ Pal-O-Mine.org!

Air Adventures The Yankee Air Museum is offering Air Adventures on board the pristine Boeing B-17G “Yankee Lady” for $450 per person during its appearance at the Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach. The plane will be at the American Airpower Museum at Republic Airport, in Farmingdale.
An Air Adventure provides a person with a multisensory, immersive experience in the type of World War II aircraft commonly called a Flying Fortress. Your Air Adventure begins with a briefing and then you take your station. The authenticity of this
craft is spellbinding. After taxiing and takeoff, you will have 25 minutes in the air. Upon reaching a cruising speed of 150mph at an altitude of 1200 feet you are able to move to other positions in the Fort, including the Plexiglas nose, flight deck, bomb bay, radio room and waist
gunnery section. As your mission ends you’ll better know the courage of the sky men who flew vast armadas of these majestic aircraft, who commanded the clouds and rode on thunder, and you too will step off exclaiming “that was amazing!” Yankee Air Museum is
a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, therefore a portion of the Air Adventure cost may be tax deductible. Consult your tax professional. A limited number of seats are available. For more information about the B-17 visit to Farmingdale, New York,
including Air Adventure information visit www. yankeeairmuseum.org and click on “Book a Flight” or call Megan Dziekan 734.483.4030, ext. 232. Big Bird The largest living bird is the ostrich, which can weigh 330 pounds.
