PHOTOS & VIDEO FROM CROTON'S 2015 MEMORIAL DAY SERVICE

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

Croton's own Tom Faranda has posted some wonderful photos (all rights reserved) and notes on today's village Memorial Day service. There's also a video of Christine Turturro performing what has become her signature piece for these events: Amazing Grace.

For those who don't know, Christine was a recipient of a 2014 METROS AWARD--she was named outstanding leading actress for her role as the nanny in Stepinac's "Mary Poppins." There's also a second video at Tom's site of the Croton Harmon High School Band. Thanks Tom!

  1. I actually have to say this one was one of the better services this year.

  2. It was one of the nicer events and it's always a pleasure to hear her sing. Official stupid comments were also kept to a minimum of just one and our officials dressed appropriately for a change.

    Thank you Tom for making all this available. It's really thoughtful.
