Graduation numbers

One hundred eighty-two seniors graduated from Seaford High School this June.  At Wantagh High School, 221 graduated.  I counted 557 graduates on the Massapequa list on Patch.

The website of St. William the Abbot parish school shows 30 in caps and gowns.

Memorial Day 2021

The pandemic cancelled Seaford's Memorial Day parade in 2021, but the Seaford American Legion Post on Penatiquit Avenue hosted a ceremony at 11 a.m. Former Congressman Peter King addressed an audience of more than a hundred people. Fr. Joseph Fitzgerald offered an invocation and Post Chaplain Charles Wroblewski the benediction. Commander Bill Hoehn described our reliance on those who served our country and died for it. At the end, the assemblage sang God Bless America with vigor.
