We lost Jack Healy
Sad to relate, Seaford and Wantagh lost the frequent volunteer of exemplary causes, Jack Healy of Spur Lane. Jack volunteered much skill and time in early website creation for St. William's parish and the Wantagh Fire District.
An obituary is linked HERE.
My only photos evidence his role in the U. S. Navy. Note the cap, depicting the USNS Comfort T-AH-20, a hospital ship.

Zio's Cake and Cookie
New owners have arrived at Helmut's or Fehn's Bakery at 3649 Merrick Road, Seaford. Zio's Italian, similar to Dortoni of Levittown. On 10.20.2022, I bought an excellent loaf of pumpernickel bread. Zio means Uncle. Google reviews are linked HERE.

There are two parking spaces in front of the store and an adequate lot behind that red car, that is, east of the bakery. The photo was taken 1.30.2023 from the sidewalk in front of the Seventh Precinct at Neptune Avenue.

July 4th Independence Day in Wantagh, 2022
Any photo may be enlarged by clicking on it. Next year, I will have to choose a location where the sun illuminates the banners. A better angle is along Island Road.
Again the sun angle on Park Avenue makes it difficult to read. Enlarge by clicking.
