PHOTOS, MEMORIAL DAY 2012

Welcome to EverythingCroton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Well another Memorial Day has come and gone in the village. As always, our service was punctuated by all the charm, respect and sincerity of small-town life. Just the way we like it here in Croton-on-Hudson!

Father Brennan of Holy Name of Mary gave the benediction, while the Knights of Columbus provided free bottles of icy water to stave off the heat, and another Knight provided the accompaniment to Dorothy Ferguson, our resident Star-Spangled Songstress. Master of Ceremonies Patrick Calcutti kept everything running smoothly, Eugene Parrotta was a special guest) and the high school band, under the direction of Ivelaw Carrington, did some of their best musical work. Christine Turturro also sang Amazing Grace.

To all who worked so hard, especially behind the scenes, to make this observance so special, thank you. Click on the link to see some photos, all rights reserved, M.D. Cudequest: http://www.flickr.com/photos/22283683@N07/sets/72157629941796088/
