The parishioners of St. Dominic R.C. Church in Oyster Bay came in droves to the St. Dominic Playing Fields - Charles B. Wang Campus in Muttontown on Sunday, September 18th for the 3rd annual Parish Picnic Mass and 500 Club Raffl e. The event consisted of an outdoor mass followed by a sunny day of fellowship where a barbecue buffet was offered as a DJ spun tunes, children enjoyed face-painting and infl atable rides while popcorn, hot pretzels and zeppoles were available for everyone.

“I asked for extra wire to-day so I could do my sermon on the pitcher’s mound,” teased Fr. Kevin Smith, Pas-tor of St. Dominic’s, to a crowd seated in the outfi eld of a baseball diamond dur-ing the outdoor mass.

Fr. Smith told the crowd about offering someone a random act of kindness and seeing what kind of reaction you get. He spoke of how he once tried to tip a McDon-ald’s employee and she was so surprised by his offering she rejected it out of fear. “She called me strange and tossed the money back into my car window. I was just trying to be nice,” he said.

Discussing the theme of being generous to others and being able to receive gifts, Fr. Smith also talked about the importance of gathering together in one big group. “We are called to be family – we are a parish. How many of you are upset that you are not at the 7:30 AM mass or not at the bakery or on the golf course?” he stated. “Give up a day and spend it with the parish - have some fun. It might be a little uneasy, but it might open a new door for you or a new window.”

The music for the mass was a collective effort of the Monsignor James E. Col-lins Memorial Adult Choir, Youth Mass Band and Fam-ily Mass Choir who per-formed contemporary and traditional songs, under the direction of organist Tim Carl and Charleen Rhin-dress. The group practiced together for three weeks.

At the picnic, St. Domi-nic’s held a Ministry Fair where parish organizations recruited new members and shared the work they have been doing within the St. Dominic’s community.

As mass moved from the “holy hour to the happy hour,” parishioners col-lectively enjoyed a lunch of hot dogs, hamburgers, grilled chicken and sausag-es. “Every September our parishioners set this date aside which is great,” said Fr. Smith. “Every year we double in size. I’m pleased to see that we have a big crowd today.”

Vin Torti, Director of Development, viewed the Parish Picnic as a real asset for the St. Dominic commu-nity. “The more people who come to see these fi elds, the better off the parish is. We are all unifi ed in Christ so what better way to come to-gether than celebrate Mass followed by a barbeque.”

The winners of the 500 Club Raffl e are: First Place – Ron & Angela Baron of Oyster Bay ($5,000), Sec-

ond Place – Patricia Cun-ningham of East Norwich ($1,000) and Third Place: Arthur Zahradnik of East Norwich, Jean Orlich of East

Norwich, Stephen Ceccarelli of East Norwich, Rose & Lou Brusca of East Norwich and Carollee Petraglia of Oyster Bay ($500 each).

The fi remen from Oyster Bay Fire Company #1 are known for helping people around the neighborhood from putting out fi res to aid-ing people in car accidents to helping those involved in domestic injuries. However, they also help people in dif-ferent ways. On Saturday, September 17th they held a fundraiser at their fi rehouse to help out their Ex-Chief Charlie Gladd, who suffered a car accident on Memorial Day weekend.

Gladd was training with his fellow fi remen in Point Pleasant where he lives with his wife and one year-old baby. When he was driving the truck, the accelerator got stuck on the equipment and he went through a fence at full throttle. As a result, he sustained multiple facial injuries having six plates put in his face, his jaw was

wired shut along with expe-riencing numbness and pain in his leg causing him to be out of work for 6-8 months.

Vinny Monaco of Oyster Bay has been planning the fundraiser for Gladd since June. “Our departments are

very close,” he said. “We all try to support each other. Everybody takes care of ev-erybody.”

Other departments such as Glenwood Landing, East Norwich, Elmont, North Lin-denhurst, Atlantic Steamer

and Bayville came to sup-port Gladd. The evening consisted of dinner and open bar plus live music from Ted & Rick plus 50/50 raffl e and door prizes. “Whatever we can give him we will give him,” said Monaco.

Charlie Gladd, who served as OBFC#1 chief in 2010, was feeling good af-ter all that has happened and he was overwhelmed by the generosity. “This is a great thing,” he said looking around. “These guys really

rally around their own.”Gladd’s father Edward

Gladd of East Norwich put the whole evening in per-spective when he said, “These guys are doing a good thing for my son. This is what friendship is all about.”

OPINIONEDITORIAL

A unique opportunity to get dirty

Call it the planet’s dirty secret: We’re running out of topsoil. The ground beneath our feet may not have the

appeal of the sky above our heads, and there may not be a ready-made vocabulary of terms like “greenhouse gases” or “global warming” to spur a dialogue about earthy matters, but the inconvenient truth remains: Soils are eroding faster than they can reform.

Luckily, we here in Nas-sau County are in a unique position to take the helm in this crisis — at least locally. With fall upon us, warm weather still prevailing and extra tons of leafy and woody debris lying around in the wake of Tropical Storm Irene, a confl uence of events make this an ideal time to start composting.

Thanks to erosion, con-struction, agriculture and un-sustainable farming, topsoil is now thought to be eroding by about 1 percent annually across the globe. It can take dozens, hundreds or thousands of years for new soil to form, de-pending on conditions, but a study presented at a 2010 carbon farming conference in Aus-tralia estimated that the U.S. is losing topsoil 10 times faster than it can regenerate. (In Eu-rope, the study suggested, erosion outpaces replacement by a factor of 17, and in China erosion is taking place a staggering 57 times more rapidly than regeneration.)

Locally, we have a rare bounty of free materials close at hand with which we can help. Rookie composters can be motivated by a concern for the planet, while others just want juicier tomatoes. Some would like to reduce their contributions to landfi lls, while others simply look to avoid bagging all their leaves. Whatever the motivation, starting a compost pile this fall will be eas-ier and more effective than at almost any other time in memory.

While most people picturing a compost pile see a heaving mass of cabbage cores, lemon peels and eggshells, these relatively “juicy” items are really only half the reci-pe. These items of kitchen waste — or, in composter’s terms, “green materials” — are nitrogen-rich soil-builders, but should com-prise only a quarter to a third of a properly built pile. The rest should be “brown” items — a carbon-dense collection of leaves, cof-fee grounds, nut shells and wood chips — which bulk up the soil structure and pre-

vent it from turning into plain ol’ garbage.With thousands of trees felled or stripped

by Irene, this is a fantastic time not only to start a compost pile, but also to stock up on brown matter for future occasions. Here’s how you can start composting today:

■ Collect all the leaves, sticks and loose branches in your yard. Chop them up as fi nely as you can — run your lawn mower

over the leaves, for example — and pile them in a heap measuring about 3 feet deep and high. If you have more “browns” than you need ini-tially, stockpile them in a second pile for later use.

■ Start saving your scraps. The next time you cook, don’t toss those carrot tops, broccoli stems and tea bags. Instead, collect them in a ceramic container for use in your pile. You can also put them in a plastic bag and keep it in the freez-er if you’re worried about odors or bugs.

■ Once your collection of greens reach-es about one-fourth the volume of your browns, combine the two heaps of scrap. This can be done on a patch of lawn, in a cardboard box or in a rotating composting barrel from a store. (Toss your old fl owers and seasonal houseplants into the mix as well. Using your old garden to fertilize your new one is another great reason to start this project in the fall.)

■ The fi nal step is the ongoing process of tending your compost pile. You’ll need to mix the ingredients occasionally and add new materials. If the pile starts to looks too dry, add some water. If it looks too wet, add some leaves. Eventually, after seven months to a year, you should start to see friendly helpers like worms in the heap and some layers of “black gold” at the bottom. This newly formed dirt can be spread in your own garden or window boxes, donated to neighbors or trucked to farms or commu-nity enterprises that need it.

With only a little starter effort required, we can take an important step to help pre-serve the planet. We can reduce waste, clean up our yards, banish the last traces of Irene and help feed our great-great-grand-children in the process. All we need is some garbage and some time.

More detailed info on the art and sweet science of composting can be found at www.nyc.gov/wasteless/compost.

OBITUARIES

Whatever the motivation, starting a compost pile this fall will be easier and more effective than at almost any other time in memory.

Planting Fields Arbore-tum in Oyster Bay will hold its Fall Family Festival on Saturday, October 8th and Sunday, October 9th from 11 AM-5 PM. This week-end event complements Planting Fields’ popular Camellia Weekend in Feb-ruary and its spring Arbor Day Family Festival Week-end. Both of these events draw thousands of visitors to the park.

The new fall festival takes place at a time of the year when the park is particularly beautiful and when the dahlia garden is in fl ower. Free activities for “kids” of all ages will include: Halloween Trick-or-Treat at Coe Hall Man-sion, Halloween Costume Parade & Contest at Coe Hall, Caricaturist Portraits & Bounce-House at Coe Hall, Pumpkins on Sale & Pumpkin Painting Contest, Watercolor Demonstra-tions in the Dahlia Gar-den, Dahlia Garden Tours (Saturday Only) & Dahlia Show in Conference Cen-ter (Sunday Only), Fresh Cut Show Quality Dahlias for Sale (Sunday Only), Potato Sack Races, Egg & Spoon Races, Chamber Players International - Live Brass Quintet Band and live music with Ready in 10 Cover Band at Coe Hall / Cloister Garden from 1-5 PM both days.

work the event. It’s very special that they keep this going every year. It makes me feel like there’s a part of John that is still here. It’s a beautiful day today and I feel like he’s smiling down on us.”

Natalie Roseberry of Ne-sconset took second place –not bad for her fi rst time in the tournament.

Her bluefi sh weighed in at 13.08 lbs. The boat she was on contained three other top ten winners: Sa-mantha Marino of Hun-tington Station, (4th place – 12.32 lbs.), Rich Tenreiro

of Hicksville (6th place – 12.19 lbs.) and John Marino of Huntington Station (7th place – 12.19 lbs.).

In total the foursome caught over 80 bluefi sh at the mouth of the harbor where the bay goes out to the Sound using porgies for bait. In order not to be greedy, they caught and re-leased the fi sh keeping only the seven biggest ones.

“The conditions were horrendous,” said John Marino, who placed third last year and won the tour-nament in 1998. “We got lucky. It was pretty rough out there.”

Roy Costa of Bethpage came in third place with a bluefi sh weighing in at 12.46 lbs. He caught the fi sh in 108 feet of water mid-Sound between Long Island and Connecticut using bun-ker as bait. Costa, who won the tournament fi ve years ago, typically fi shes every weekend for bass, bluefi sh and porgies.

The remainder of win-ners that rounded out the top 15 include: Joe Dani-ello Jr. of Locust Valley (8th place – 12.13 lbs.), Tom Sabatino of Bayville (9th place – 11.85 lbs.), Mike Hambrook of Oyster Bay

(10th place – 11.80 lbs.), Alex Canoro of Hicksville (11th place – 11.78 lbs.), Bill Stanley Jr. of Hicksville (12th place – 11.68 lbs.), James Cureton of Richmond (13th place – 11.60 lbs.), Doug Rodgers of Oyster Bay (14th place – 11.57 lbs.) and Ed Mott of East Rockaway (15th place – 11.54 lbs.).

Along with plaques, winners of fi rst through 10th places received gift certifi cates in the follow-ing amounts: fi rst place - $2,000; second place - $1,000; third place - $750; fourth place - $600; fi fth and sixth places - $500;

seventh and eighth places - $400; ninth and 10th plac-es - $300. Winners of 11th and 12th places received a $200 gift certifi cate and 13th, 14th and 15th place winners received a $100 gift certifi cate.

Raffl e prize winners were called out by Town Supervi-sor John Venditto, Judge Rhonda Fischer, Town Councilman Anthony Ma-cagnone, Legislator Walker, TOB Receiver of Taxes Jim Stefanich, Town Council-woman Rebecca Alesia and Town Clerk Steve Labriola at the tailgate party follow-ing the tournament. Prizes

included Mercury infl at-able boats and Mercury out-boards, a Walker Bay boat, rods, reels, ice chests, water skis, dinners for two andmore.

“This is one of our more popular events. It speaksthe most about our town. I very much like the idea that people come from outside the town to experience the Town of Oyster Bay. This is a fun day and a real good time,” said Supervisor Ven-ditto. “Some people said itwas a bit choppy out there but these are Oyster Baypeople here today and this is what they enjoy the most.”

stayed. This past spring the

North Shore Land Alliance secured a bridge loan for the property in order to properly develop a preser-vation solution.

Last Sunday visitors came to Hillside to enjoy drinks and hors d’oeuvres as they toured through rooms and examined the grounds.

“We did a big clean up, opened up the windows and the shutters and aired out the house,” said Lisa Ott, Executive Director of the North Shore Land Alli-ance (NSLA). “The money donated towards this proj-ect will be used for winter stabilization. We are going to patch up the holes in the roof and put a new beam in the middle.”

A donor loaned NSLA money to purchase the house. “We have a two-year window to fi gure out what to do. We are trying to fi nd someone to protect it and restore it so it provides a

community purpose,” said Ott. “We will be more ag-gressive after the winter and we are allowing time for people to fi nd out about it and get some offers to-gether. But the house has beautiful bones.”

Save the Jewel by the Bay’s Rita Pecora, a Broker Associate at Piping Rock As-sociates, believes the ham-let of Oyster Bay is having a Renaissance and Hillside

is a perfect fi t for the area. “Oyster Bay is slowly com-ing along. It’s not going to happen overnight but we’ve been working on it for a long time,” she said. “Hill-side is a prime piece that has gotten saved and it will be preserved. It’s going to take a lot of love but the po-tential is staring you in the face.”

To Isaac Kremer, Execu-tive Director of the Oyster

Bay Main Street Associa-tion, the “Shadow Ball” suc-ceeded beyond his wild-est expectations. “To raise nearly $20,000 for a single mailing is a huge accom-plishment. It has brought us one step further to bringing this house back to its right-ful place,” he said.

Kremer hopes the cur-rent momentum behind Hillside will move the proj-ect ahead full force. “Wewant to have it ready for a preservation minded buyer to come along and do what needs to be done,” he said. “We are in discussions with a lot of people and there are different options but it’s about doing what’s best forthe house.”

The Oyster Bay Preserva-tion Roundtable is made upof the Society for the Pres-ervation of Long Island An-tiquities, Oyster Bay Main Street Association, Save the Jewel by the Bay, Raynham Hall, Oyster Bay HistoricalSociety and Oyster Bay Rail-road Museum.

with the wind especially if their wares were easily breakable. On Sunday many didn’t return because their tents got ruined.

Gina Centauro of Tru-ly Unique Designs from Franklin Square, who sells homemade hand decorated Halloween and Thanksgiv-ing crafts, had to pack it in early on Sunday. “Our stuff is extremely breakable so we can’t take the risk,” she said. “However we love Bay-ville and we do well here.”

The Chamber uses the funds raised at the festival for student scholarships, holiday events and other lo-cal activities.

They are already kicking around ideas such as chang-ing the location or possibly using a different weekend.

The event is mainly fo-cused on arts and crafts vendors offering a wide variety of unique gift and decorative items.

The Pamela Betti Band performed on Saturday and 6 Gun 5 played all day Sun-day. Meanwhile Gooseberry Grove provided infl atable rides and activities in the children’s area.

Chamber President Joe Florio was a bit frustrated with the weekend’s results. “This is the fi rst time we had two days without rain but the wind was against us. The rain knocked us out one day for the fi rst three years. This year was upsetting be-cause now we have to deal with the wind. What’s going to be next?” he said.

Florio also wasn’t pleased to see people leaving the fair to eat and not staying on the festival grounds. “All these businesses across the street benefi t from the fes-tival and they don’t support

us. Why should we support them? Next year we are go-ing to shoot for moving the festival downtown,” he said.

“I’d like to do it on Lud-lam Avenue as you come into town or if that is incon-venient maybe close down West Harbor Drive and put the vendors on both sides of the street. This will bring more unity within the com-munity. I think the vendors will do better and we won’t have to deal with the wind coming off the Sound.”

In terms of food, Florio wants to utilize the busi-nesses in the center of town. “If you want a ham-burger, go to Brigid’s Café, if you want a drink go to Mill Creek Tavern or if you want pizza come to my place [Bayville Deli]. These are the people that support the Chamber and we have to help them out,” he said.

One of the highlights of the festival was the tradi-tional Clam Jam eating con-test on Sunday afternoon where contestants eat as many clams as they can in 20 seconds. The clams were donated by the North Oys-ter Bay Baymen’s Associa-tion.

Clam Jam eating champi-on Pat Strassberg of Bayville defended her title, winning for the third year in a row by gobbling 20 clams in 20 seconds. She defeated Flo-rio (17 clams) and Valicenti (12 clams) with ease.

Last year Strassberg won by eating 17 clams and the year before she downed 16. “Every year I get better. I’ve been practicing,” Strassberg said.

Strassberg won a $100 gift certifi cate for Bridge Marine Clam Bar. She planned on taking her fam-ily out for a lobster dinner.

will change their actions.”The number #1 item of

trash found internationally is cigarette butts with plas-tic bottles coming in as a close second. Last Saturday a lot of debris from broken docks and pilings was found due to Hurricane Irene.

One of the most surpris-ing items found were little plastic discs that were acci-dentally released by a sew-age treatment plant in Ma-maroneck and are spread all over Long Island Sound via tides and wind.

They are used to help grow bacteria to fi lter and clean the water. “I think we are going to be fi nding them

for years as over a million were released,” said Aitken. “My concern is a turtle or seal could eat them. But I’m more worried about birdspicking them up.”

Fall Cleanup Day comes after the annual Spring Cleanup during Earth Day. “They are both wonderful volunteer efforts that people come out and support. Every year you have people com-ing back who have done it before and there are always new people who come and help out,” said Aitken. “It’s an amazing collaborative ef-fort. It’s incredible to see how many people care. They love and appreciate the harbor and they want to protect it.”

SPORTSOUT IN RIGHT FIELDBy Jeff Davis

Falcons skin MulesThe Locust Valley Falcons remained undefeated with a

convincing road victory against the Malverne Mules, 35-6. The Falcons, who were expected to have the best defense in Conference IV, have more than exceeded this expecta-tion. However, it was unclear how the offensive line would develop and how good the offense could be. This too seems answered. The Falcons offense, behind the strong arm of quarterback Joe Jacobi, the acrobatic catches of Tyler Fallon and Alex Rawa and the running of fullback Nick West and tailback Chris Appell, grounds out nearly 300 yards of total offense.

The scoring opened when the speedy Appell sprinted for 14-yards and the toughdown. Bradley Conn’s talented toe added the PAT. Nick West scored the second touchdown with a 1-yard burst over the middle. He then added the two-point conversion. Sophomore John Keschl, a great blocker in the backfi eld, showed he knows how to run when he bulled over from the three-yard line. Conn again was true with the PAT.

Halftime ended with the Green Birds 22 and the Mules 0. The third quarter did not see a letdown of the Falcon offense. West quickly added a touchdown and Jacobi, who has a college type arm, hit Fallon with a 30-yard strike. Conn added the fi nal PAT. Head Coach Matt McFarland was very pleased with his team’s efforts. He singled out center Ken Syrett and tackle Kevin Reiger. “In the case of Syrett, he was outstanding. When we needed a couple yards we could just get behind him and his push always moved the nose guard. West’s touchdowns came behind Syrett’s blocks.”

In describing Reiger, McFarland actually ran out of super-latives. “He is the most underrated lineman in the league. He never gives up and on defense is just plain solid. He is very intelligent and understands football,” he said. “Every team needs a player like this.”

McFarland keyed on Fallon’s strong effort. His touch-down catch just notifi ed opposing coaches that LV has one more potent weapon in their air arsenal. Tommy McNamara and Ryan Paniagua at defensive ends never once permitted a Mule to get outside of them. The young bulls, sophomore linebackers, Matt Vezza and John Piscitello had mistake free gritty performances. In the case of Piscitello he was so excit-ed with his performance that he gave it to his mom, Helen as a birthday present. Rawa, who had 48-yards in recep-tions from Jacobi, also showed he could catch for Malverne grabbing his fi rst interception of the year.

Baymen bow to CSHThe Oyster Bay Baymen put up a game fi ght but ulti-

mately fell to the Cold Spring Harbor Seahawks 26-14. The Baymen did not go quietly into the night but held a 7-6 lead mid-way into the second quarter.

Head coach Joe Knoll was quite pleased with the im-provement his young squad showed in game 2 of the sea-son. For the Baymen the second quarter touchdown was scored by Robert Morgan with a quick 14-yard rush off tackle. The PAT was kicked by Josh Ramos, who has not missed one this season. Knoll believes that Ramos is devel-oping into one of the better kickers in Conference IV. The second touchdown came on the option when quarterback Steve O’Neill kept the ball, faked the pitch and scampered 6-yards for the score. Knoll praised O’Neill who runs the op-tion perfectly and makes the play work.

In discussing the game the head coach was very grati-fi ed with how Ian Estevez is developing as a player. Estevez is the offensive and defensive tackle, never misses a play and always comes game ready. Nose guard Joe Collery also had a stellar game and is beginning to understand just how great his potential is.

Even in losing, Knoll was excited about his small squad. “This is a group of young men who really have character as individuals and are now beginning to learn what is ex-pected each time they step onto the football fi eld,” he said. “This week showed tremendous improvement from game one. Our best is ahead of us.”

St. Dom’s falls to RCDSThe Bayhawks of St Dominic High School had a tough

evening when they squared off against Rye Country Day School losing 40-14. Head Coach Tore Barbaccia saw his team fall to one of the better Westchester independent teams. The Sea Hawks did score two touchdowns. Junior Chris Volberg, the tough fullback ran over, under and through the Rye defenders from the 20-yard line. Junior Dan Hopkins had a 25-yard burst for the fi nal Bayhawk tal-ly. Barbaccia praised the running of Ryan Perkins who had a fi ne game. The Bayhawks also got a two-point conversion on a run from Marc Flynn.

The Greater Long Island Running Club will hold its 26th annual Ocean to Sound Relay, sponsored by Bethpage Federal Credit Union, on Sunday, Sep-tember 25th. The event will take runners across both Nassau and Suffolk Counties with 150 teams of eight runners each travers-ing a 50-mile scenic course stretching from the South Shore to the North Shore of Long Island.

Over 1,000 runners are expected to participate in the relay, which will ben-efi t the Leukemia & Lym-phoma Society. Dedicated to funding blood cancer research, education and patient services, money raised from the relay will go directly to support the organization’s Long Island Chapter. Long Island run-ner Alan End, who founded the relay back in 1985, will be the relay director.

“We want to thank Beth-page once again for coming on board as our title spon-sor. Now in its 26th year, the Ocean to Sound Re-lay is a special event here on Long Island as runners come together to form teams exemplifying great camaraderie and team spirit, like no other,” said Mike Polansky, President of the Greater Long Island Running Club.

The Ocean to Sound Re-lay starts at Jones Beach State Park and fi nishes on the grounds of the Theo-dore Roosevelt Memorial Park in Oyster Bay. 150 eight-person teams will navigate their way through 15 different Long Island townships starting in Want-agh, traveling through Sea-ford, Massapequa Park, Massapequa, Farmingdale, Old Bethpage, Plainview, Woodbury, West Hills, crossing into Huntington and hitting the Long Island Sound in Lloyd Harbor, re-turning to Nassau County via Cold Spring Harbor and Syosset, reaching Oyster Bay Cove, and fi nally hit-ting Oyster Bay.

“We couldn’t be more

excited to partner once again with the Greater Long Island Running Club. The Ocean to Sound Re-lay is a truly unique, only-on Long Island event that draws runners from the entire tri-state area,” said Linda Armyn, Senior Vice President, Bethpage Feder-al Credit Union. “Last year Bethpage had three teams participate in the relay, in-cluding our President, Kirk Kordeleski. Bethpage is a proud supporter of many health and wellness initia-tives on Long Island and we look forward to work-ing closely again with the Running Club over the next few months.”

There are 13 different categories for runners in-cluding men’s, women’s, mixed open, men’s mas-ters, women’s masters, mixed masters, men’s se-niors masters, women’s seniors masters, corporate, law enforcement/fi refi ght-er, physically challenged, one person team and Beth-page. A gala post race party affectionately called the “Best Post-Race Party in the Northeast” will take place immediately follow-ing the relay at the Theo-dore Roosevelt Memorial Park on the shoreline of Oyster Bay Harbor near the fi nish line, where awards will be presented in each of the individual categories to each member of the top three teams in each cat-egory.

“The Leukemia & Lym-phoma Society on Long Island offers support and guidance to patients and the health professionals who care for them. Our great thanks go out to the Greater Long Island Run-ning Club and to Bethpage for their continued sup-port,” said Nicole Kowales-ki, The Leukemia & Lym-phoma Society’s Deputy Executive Director.

The entry fee for the Bethpage Ocean to Sound Relay is $400 per team. For more information, or to register, go to www.glirc.org.

The Life Enrichment Cen-ter at Oyster Bay suffered a big blow on August 30th when Edna I. Dormer, the Center’s Social Worker for 26 years, lost her battle with cancer on August 30th at the age of 72.

“We are in a fog here,” said Executive Director Gail Spe-ranza. “Edna helped so many people in the community. It’s been rough on our members and staff. We are functioning but it’s been hard.”

The Center put together a memorial table in the lobby where members have been writing down memories of Dormer and putting it in a box for her family. Addition-ally they are dedicating a table in Angela’s Café in her honor.

Wife of Hymie, Dormer

was the mother of seven chil-dren (Doreen Davis, Bernice Morris, Charmaine McKen-zie, Hillary Caine, Sophia Dormen, Nadine Glastow and Delton Dormer), grandmoth-er of 19 and great-grand-mother of 10. “We never knew of her family situation because it was never about her. It was always about ev-erybody else,” said Speranza. “She was about the people.”

Born in Jamaica, Dormer

lived in Central Islip. She went to college while work-ing full time and raising kids. She received her bachelor’s degree in 1985 followed by her master’s degree in 1991 and obtained her social work-er’s license in 1992.

A Funeral Service was held, under the direction of Thomas P. Walsh Funeral Home in Central Islip, on September 6th at St. Peter’s by the Sea Episcopal Church in Brightwaters followed by interment at Pinelawn Me-morial Park. In lieu of fl ow-ers donations can be made to Episcopal Church of the Messiah, 53 Carleton Avenue, Central Islip, NY 11722 or the Life Enrichment Center at Oyster Bay (www.lifeenrich-mentcenteroysterbay.org).

“Edna was larger than life,” said Speranza. “We can’t get over the fact that she’s gone.”
