11 September 6:35AM The Town of Hempstead’s annual 9/11 Memorial Service held at Point Lookout took place in a safe and socially distant manner. The annual event is Long Island’s largest 9/11 memorial service. As in years past, musical accompaniment for the ceremony was provided by Kellenberg Memorial’s Gregorian Consortium, the high school’s liturgical choir ensemble. Members of Gregorian assembled before sunrise where the 30-foot steel relic of the World Trade Center stands today. This marks the 15th time the Gregorian Consortium has assisted in memorializing the lives lost on 9/11.
