HICKSVILLE VIETNAM WAR
ERA MEMORIAL - PROJECT UPDATE
There were no donations in November, so
our full list of donors remains at 217. Additional donations
are still welcome to help finance the Dedication Ceremony when that
event becomes possible, plus future Memorial maintenance needs.
Full details on expenses to date, current remaining funds and how to
still donate are contained in the November Update.
Given the surge in virus cases with colder
weather, there is nothing new to report regarding progress
on a date for the Dedication Ceremony and the need for the associated
permit and liability insurance for it. We expect, this will
remain the case for a number of future months, but we will let
everyone know when virus conditions improve and we are able to set a
date.
We remain pleased to tell you that our
core action team is safe from the virus. We are thankful for
this and hope the same is true for all our readers and alumni.
While the Dedication Ceremony remains on
hold, please remember
that the Memorial is complete and can be viewed by anyone visiting the
Memorial Gardens located on the south side of the Jerusalem Avenue
Middle School.
The project will be officially complete once
we are able to conduct the Dedication Ceremony at the Memorial.
Wishing All of You a Very Happy & Safe
Thanksgiving!!
On behalf of the Project
Team,
Joe Carfora

The profile this month is
Richie Simpson from the class of 1961. Have you ever wondered why records sound crisp and clear, for the most part? His career is unique, and the information provided in his profile is difficult to understand but if you paw through the content, you can appreciate what he did all those years to make music records more enjoyable.
Many of you have not used the opportunity of sharing precious moments with other classmates. It’s not too late to submit a sketch to be included in the Alumni Bio Section (click the link on the left to go to the bios section) of the newsletter.
