MOMENT OF SILENCE
In memory of Mrs. Rosemary Randall, 93, longtime resident and pillar of the Parkway Homes Community, passed on June 2. A former Banker and a retired Registered Nurse, she was very active in the Greenburgh community and instrumental in the establishment of the current home of the First Seventh-day Adventist Church on Juniper Hill Road. A matriarch with a passion for service, she diligently volunteered in the church’s food pantry. We express our most sincere condolences to her daughter Mrs. Judy Randall Bartlett, son-in-law Mr. Mayo Bartlett, grandchildren Ethan and Sara, and their family, and extended family, which includes the Greenburgh community.
In memory of Frances Zupcak, loving mother of long time town employees Camille Sgaglio and Marianne Delise, and four other children, who passed at the age of 96 on Saturday, June 10, 2023. Mrs. Zupack was a longtime resident of Yorktown Heights. May she rest in peace.
In memory of Norman D. Lipton, 79, a Hartsdale resident for almost 40 years, passed peacefully May 26 with his wife, Yzette, at his side. As a young man Norman was active in the Civil Rights movement, making many trips to the south to assist in getting people registered to vote. Throughout his life he worked for many organizations. Norman found love in his garden: planting and growing flowers, vegetables, fruit and herbs. There he also found love in his and Yzette’s union of 29 years. Their children, Symone and Stormjames, followed, and then grandchildren.
In memory of the people in Ukraine killed during Russia's invasion and relentless intentional targeted bombing of civilians in apartment buildings, hospitals, train stations, schools and children centers, deliberating targeting utilities used by civilians to leave them without electricity and heat through the brutal winter weather, with mass graves being found after invaded areas have been retaken, all in Russia's effort to destroy Ukraine and its people, who are forced to fight for their land, their freedom, and general democratic principles. May they rest in peace and peace be restored to Ukraine |
