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
Thanks to the efforts and hard work by Memorial Committee member, John Tranchina and the contacts of committee member, Bill Walden, we were able to join with the Hicksville American Legion and the Hicksville Fire Department, hosts of the Hicksville Memorial Day Parade, in the Parade ending ceremonies held at the Jerusualem Avenue Middle School Memorial Gardens, for our Dedication Ceremony, which was hosted by committee member, Tommy Sullivan.
This came together quickly and while we had promised to provide more than one week's notice to those Alumni wishing to attend the ceremony, we trust you can all understand that after a pandemic forced 2 1/2 year wait, since the Memorial's construction, we chose to take advantage of the opportunity and timing to complete the Memorial's Dedication at this time.
The success of this Project could not have taken place without the help of our Memorial Committee and the cooperation of HixNews and its editors; particularly Bob Casale and Roger Whitaker, plus the numerous donations of Hicksville High School Alumni and other Hicksville organizations. The excellent cooperation from Hicksville's Superintendent of Public Schools, Marianne Litzmann and her staff is also very much appreciated.
Our heartfelt Thank You to all those mentioned above that enabled this Memorial to those who served our Great Country and those who paid the ultimate price for their service, during the Vietnam War Era, to happen!!
Details of the Dedication Ceremony, including pictures and further information on the disposition of names submitted for the Memorial after its construction, along with plans for the final donation of any remaining funds to worthy Veteran's causes, will be published in the July 1, 2022 issue of HixNews.
Additional donations are still welcome. Please see our detailed report on the Project's status in the Honoring Our Veterans tab of this issue of HixNews.
On behalf of the Project Team,
Joe Carfora, HHS 1962
