People Looking for People
We've taken a new approach to this section. It's been re-organized by Henry Lichtenstein as an online spreadsheet. Rather than publish the list here, it's now available below. If you have found the person you are looking for, please let the editors know so the name can be removed from the list. If there's someone you're looking for, just send your request and we'll be happy to add it to the list. If anyone knows these folks, send an email to:

Hicksville Vietnam War Era Memorial - PROJECT UPDATE
Donations reached $5,800 in May, just a $200 gain over April and still far short of our needed goal of $25,000 to build and maintain the Memorial. So far, 36 people, couples and companies or organizations have contributed. Just think where we could be if everyone reading this note donated at least $10 to this worthy cause! Please remember, all donations are tax deductibile. We are continuing an alphabetical list of current donors. To view it along with details you will need to mail in your donation, please see our monthly UPDATE in the Honoring Our Veterans section of this issue of HixNews.
Another new entry was added to the Confirmed Liist of Names in May for a new total of 1,896, but the Unconfirmed List once again did not change. We continue to need the help of all readers to fill in missing data on the Confirmed List and to help us qualify the names shown on the Unconfirmed List.
Bill Walden left on vacation right after Memorial Day, so we will have his report on the Hicksville Memorial Day Parade and the contacts he made regarding our fund raising drive in the July 1 issue of HixNews.
As in the past, when you visit this month's UPDATE, please remember that clicking on the two links near the bottom of the page will bring you to the complete Confirmed and Unconfirmed Lists of Names as of the end of May. And, If you have any new information to send us, please email it to me at

"Midsummer Nights Swing Concert Series" FROM TEEN CENTER TO LINCOLN CENTER. A 50 year musical journey
Paul Korman, Hicksville High School, Class of 1969
Dr K's Motown Review is a unique band that features the original sound of Motown greats. The band embraces the sounds of Stevie Wonder, Martha & The Vandellas, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Marvin Gaye and other performers on the Motown label. Their history began back in the early throes of the new century when Paul Korman, a 1969 graduate from Hicksville High School, Hicksville, Long Island, New York decided to finally put together a group of musicians he has performed with over the years and feature the motor city sound. Their talent has overtaken the New York Metropolitan Area by storm. The initial presentation by Dr. K and his group was well received and favorable critiques bombarded the local media.
Paul is the bassist who blends nicely with an array of very talented musicians. The group has grown tremendously over the years and has a loyal group of followers who will go anywhere to hear them perform. Paul's musical career began when performing with his band, The Four Teens, in 1964 at the Teen Center located in Hicksville's Junior High School. The subsequent years of his musical journey proved interesting and culminated in the formation of his 11 Piece Band known as Dr. K's Motown Review referenced earlier.
Paul assembled his band from former musicians he played with over the years. Since its inception, Dr K's Motown Review has performed at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut; BB Kings in Manhattan; the United Nations; Central Park in midtown Manhattan; the Jones Beach Band shell; the Dix Hills Performing Arts Center; Eisenhower Park and the Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts plus many other facilities. The band has shared the stage with such notables as Leon Russell; The Vanilla Fudge; Eric Burdon and Bobby Blue Bland and others.
