Letter: Remember Jane Josiah As A Levittowner
Friday, 14 September 2012 00:00
I was just reading the online Tribune today and saw the article on the local people who died on 9/11. My sister-in-law, Jane (Hagan) Josiah, wasn’t mentioned in it. She graduated in ’71 from Division Avenue High School and lived in Levittown for some years after. Technically she lived in Bellmore on that horrible day, but I feel she should still be remembered as being a Levittowner. I know this is too late to change but wanted you to be aware of it for next year. Thanks very much.

The district is looking for about $131.9 million from taxpayers for the upcoming school year.

On a beautiful Tuesday afternoon, Frank DeNunzio sat in the bleachers and watched as his son Anthony prepared to bat for the MacArthur Generals. He closed his eyes for a second and was transported back in time to 1981, and for a brief moment he remembered that once-in-a-lifetime feeling of being a member of the Generals Nassau County Championship baseball team. Suddenly, the crack of the bat jolted his eyes open and he watched his son successfully rip his third hit of the game.
