Barring support for an unforeseen write-in candidate, Comsewogue School District taxpayers already know who will be on their board of education next school year. Three candidates are running for three seats, two of whom are familiar faces while one is a newcomer. The terms for board President John Swenning, and Trustees Rick Rennard and Louise Melious are up this year. Swenning and Rennard are running again while Melious is not. She did not respond to a request for comment about her decision. Corey Prinz, a district resident since 2004, is the third candidate and is making his first bid for the board. Prinz, 37, lives in the district with his wife and two kids — a second-grader and a fourth-grader. He has worked for Bank United as a commercial banker for about a decade. Prinz said he enCorey Prinz joys the small-town feeling in Comsewogue and sees it as a good place to raise a family. He was previously involved as a board member for Comsewogue’s youth lacrosse program and said running for the school board seemed like a natural progression to get more involved. “I’m excited – this is going to be a lot of fun,” Prinz said. “I go to bed excited about this starting up.” He said his personal mantra in his position with the youth lacrosse program was to help kids succeed athletically, but more importantly “I want them to be good humans.” Prinz called this day and age in education and beyond very difficult for kids who face pressures based on academics, security concerns and socially, among countless others. “We’re going through some changes here in the world,” he said. Prinz said he thinks the current board has done a great job. “Honestly, it’s about listening right now,” he said of his approach stepping into the position. “I don’t want to imply there’s something broken that I’m coming in to fix. It can always be improved.” Comsewogue is known to have among the highest opt-out rates for standardized tests on Long Island, a charge led by Superinten-

dent Joe Rella. While Prinz said he doesn’t have a problem with parents electing to have students skip tests, his kids have taken them. “Eventually kids will have to deal with testing that isn’t pleasant and comfortable. I’m OK with them getting used to that,” he said. Prinz said his focus will be on helping to create well-rounded offerings, with equal emphasis on education, athletics, music and any other areas important to students and community members. Swenning, 54, attended Comsewogue schools and has been a board member since 2005. He works as a sales and design consultant in the home improvement industry. He and his wife Andrea have been married for 32 years and have four children, all Comsewogue graduates. “I have been part John Swenning of so many good things here and look forward to continuing to see Comsewogue accomplish great things for our students,” he said of why he decided to seek another term. The district earned the prestigious accreditation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools in 2017. He said safety and security improvements will be a focus for the board going forward, as well as expanding the district’s project-based learning pilot program, which the district implemented in recent years as an alternative to typical Regents-based classes. Rennard started on the board in 2014. He has lived in the district for 14 years and has a child at each level in the district — an elementary student, middle schooler and a high schooler. He is a teacher at Newfield High School in the Middle Country Central School District, and also serves as Boy Scouts cubmaster and assistant scoutmaster for Troop 354. “The reason that I decided to run again for the school board is because after serving for four years, I feel very comfortable with the responsibilities and commitments that come along with the position,” he said. “I feel the district is moving in a very positive direction educationally, and I want to continue that Rick Rennard movement.” He also expressed a desire to continue the project-based learning program as a focus moving forward. To vote on the district’s budget, a $32 million capital bond proposal and BOE candidates, go to Comsewogue High School May 15 between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.

PJ BOE candidates weigh in on hot-button issues Candidates for Port Jefferson School District’s board of education have thrown themselves into the world of public service at a tumultuous time for the district and education more broadly. To better inform voters about the positions of the six candidates vying for three trustee seats prior to heading to the polls May 15, each was asked to provide answers to the same questions. Candidate Mia Farina answered the questions during a phone interview while the other five chose to respond via email. Their answers to the questions, or answers in part, are provided below in alphabetical order by the candidate’s last name. If the district loses revenue as a result of a LIPA settlement, how can the BOE scale down the budget without doing too much harm to existing programs? There is the possibility of losing property tax revenue as a legal battle plays out between Port Jefferson Village, the school district and Long Island Power Authority, which has a plant in the village. The utility company contends Town of Brookhaven overassessed and is seeking to reduce the assessment. The district receives about half of the revenue in its budget from taxes paid by LIPA based on the plant’s assessment. The village and Brookhaven have publicly stated a settlement is on the horizon, the result of which will likely reduce the plant’s assessment, though few details have been shared. The district has publicized a plan for the budget should an official settlement be reached in time to impact the 2018-19 school year, with proposed cuts to instrument rental availability, textbooks, athletic teams, clubs and overnight field trips, to name a few. Ryan Biedenkapp: “There will need to be a scaling down of nonmandated costs by looking to trim where student participation fails to justify the cost. An increase in taxes combined with increased community participation in seeking alternative funding sources will also be required. Maintaining the academic integrity of Port Jefferson schools should be the guiding principle when deciding where reductions will occur.” Mia Farina: “There’s actually grants out there — privately — [like] music grants that actually [pay for] musical instruments and pay for the maintenance of those instruments, so that alone would cover that lost revenue. I went to public school, and we did fundraisers. We could sponsor events. We possibly may lose revenue. If we could do anything to bring that back by having the community involved … ” Jason Kronberg: “Depending on how severe the loss of revenue is, I’d like to hold forums with the community to come up with potential cuts to the budget.” René Tidwell: “As a member of the BOE, I will work diligently to ensure the high standards the district has set for its instructional programs remain in place. I believe the district needs to form a Citizens Advisory Committee immediately, with the objective to assess the impact of the loss of LIPA revenue under various scenarios (such as 50 percent reduction of revenue,

However, a combination of program adjustments and increased taxes will be necessary in order to absorb the significant loss of revenue. The community will once again be asked to provide input through a values survey and community forum response initiative. Understandably, not everyone is going to agree on every priority, but the most important thing to remember is our students come first.” Ryan Walker: “Several suggestions that have been successful in other districts come to mind, such as encouraging increased philanthropic contributions, seeking out unused state and federal financial aid opportunities and grant writing. The first thing to consider is what must the district have in order to maintain the high quality of education that makes families chose to move to Port Jefferson.”

Do you believe security officers and/ or educators should be armed on school campuses?

Security in schools is never far from district’s and parent’s minds, though this has been particularly true in the wake of the latest mass school shooting in Parkland, Florida, in February, which left 17 dead. Neighboring districts have moved to employ armed security personnel, while some participated in the national discourse through walkouts. Biedenkapp: “I don’t believe in arming teachers, ever. The idea of having an armed security person inside our schools is one that gives me pause. The retention of a single, possibly two, retired officers, who also was/ were licensed air marshal that was carrying [a] concealed [weapon] at the front of the school at the vestibule or outside the school on the perimeter is something that I would be inclined to support.” Farina: “Absolutely not. Their job is to educate, not to have the responsibility of a [carrying] firearms. Security officers, I believe, should be armed if they’re fully capable of being armed, meaning training is a huge priority.” Kronberg: “Weapons-trained security can be an essential layer of protection for our schools. There is no definitive study on the effectiveness of this form of protection,

but in my opinion it is something, with proper training, that can help prevent and deter violence. Arming teachers in schools is an irresponsible idea.” Tidwell: “I believe the answer to this question is best answered by the community itself, and as a BOE member, I would recommend a town hall meeting to listen to the community’s ideas and concerns regarding security for our facilities.” Walker: “I worked in two school districts as a nationally certified School Resource Officer for the New York State Police Department. At first, residents were hesitant to have a police officer in full uniform, which included a gun, in the schools. Resident hesitation swiftly dissipated as I worked to build a positive collaborative relationship with students, families, administration, teachers and staff.” Zamek: “I absolutely do not support the idea of having teachers armed in schools. Guns do not belong inside our schools. However, I would welcome a village and community discussion about having professional armed security guards on the outside of schools, especially at arrival [and] dismissal and on the perimeter of fields during recess.” Do you think BOE communication and transparency with taxpayers can be improved, and if so, how would you do it? The district and board have been criticized by members of the community for a lack of transparency and for their communication methods on issues, like how the district informed parents of a social media threat made by a student in February long after it was received and via email instead of a robocall. Biedenkapp: “We can absolutely improve communication with all stakeholders, as well as our transparency. With respect to the taxpayers the district Facebook page should be utilized to give a brief synopsis of each BOE meeting, along with the live video of the meeting and quick links to any pertinent web pages. The school’s web page is rather cumbersome, but design of a new website would be fiscally irresponsible at this time. Residents should have an ability to have their phone number added to the school robocall list.” Farina: “I think there’s always room for improvement in any type of communication whatsoever. I haven’t really had an issue [with] school communication because I’m very active. ... I would ask the

community for ideas on how they would want to be notified. Who’s not getting information that wants information? How do you get your information?” Kronberg: “Communication between the board and community, although strong in many ways, can always be improved. I’m excited for the ‘super team’ approach arrived at by the superintendent for this fall [which brings community members from different sectors together to come up with ideas to solve problems]. While the meetings are online and available, it may be a good idea to provide a question and answer email session with board members, where community members can write in and receive answers to specific questions.” Tidwell: “I believe there are significant gaps in the BOE’s communication process with all the district’s stakeholders. I would establish a telephone communication protocol that includes all district taxpayers — not just the parents of children attending the district’s schools. I would ensure that taxpayers who currently do not utilize the internet or social media are informed of upcoming BOE events in a timely manner. I propose utilizing cellphone alert applications to remind residents of upcoming meetings, important announcements, etc., all of which could have ‘opt-in’ or ‘opt-out’ choices for all residents.” Walker: “The current way of disseminating information is adequate for those with children attending schools in the district. However, everyone else must seek out information by checking the district’s web page on a daily basis to make sure they didn’t miss anything important. Printed newsletter mailings to residents are infrequent, costly and not always timely. All residents should have an opportunity to register their email addresses with the school to have the same information sent to them as parents of school children. Board members should make themselves more available to attend public functions, have face-to-face interactions with residents.” Zamek: “There needs to be a greater emphasis on enrolling every community member on our connect-ed phone, text and email system. I have already started to improve communication between the school and village officials by creating a direct line of communication between the two offices. The school now informs the mayor’s office monthly concerning school board meeting dates and times and provides an agenda.”

‘We’re seeing less

than 10 milligrams per liter of total nitrogen coming from the systems in the prototypes we’ve been testing for the past year and a half.’

Which Body Type are YOU?

Co-director of Stony Brook University’s Center for Clean Water Technology, Howard Walker, demonstrates how sand is used in a prototype of a new nitrogen-reducing biofilter at a press conference in Shirley, April 26. the effectiveness of the system as well as find ways to reduce the price and size of the filter. The center hopes the system will be affordable since all the parts could be bought from plumbing or pool supply stores. Gobler said the system currently costs several tens of thousands of dollars in its prototype stage, but he hopes the cost will come down with more tests. “This is nonproprietary — all other systems are built off of Long Island and then brought here, this one is using Long Island materials, Long Island labor,” Gobler said. “Ultimately without having to run a company or without having to buy something off the shelf, there’s a promise to make these highly affordable.” Other nitrogen filters have problems when it comes to people flushing any kind of bleach, pharmaceuticals or other harmful chemicals because they kill off the bacteria that remove the nitrogen from the effluent,

according to Gobler. He said the design of SBU’s nitrogen-reducing biofilter will be less prone to failure because the waste is spread over a large area, and because it seeps through the layers of sand at a slower rate the killing effect of chemicals would be reduced. “One bad flush is not going to upturn the apple cart,” Gobler said. “We’ve tested more than 30 different organic compounds, pharmaceuticals, personal care products, drugs, and in all cases its removing 90 percent of those compounds, sometimes 99 percent. In certain cases, it’s just as good or even better than a sewage treatment plant.” The Center for Clean Water Technology hopes to have concrete results on its prototypes in a year’s time. After that a provisional phase would take place where the center would install another 20 filters in other parts of Long Island.

New pine barrens trail named for former director BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

In the late 1980s, Corwin envisioned a trail that would go from Route 25A in Shoreham all the way down to Smith Point A new pine barrens trail bears the name County Park in Shirley, according to David of Ray Corwin, the first director of the Cen- Reisfield, president of the Long Island tral Pine Barrens Joint Planning & Policy Greenbelt Trail Conference.

When years of court battles over Suffolk’s pine barrens resulted in a 1993 state law creating Long Island’s 100,000-acre Central Pine Barrens preserve, environmentalist Richard Amper, executive director of Long Island Pine Barrens Society, said there was only one man both sides trusted to oversee the new sanctuary, and that was Corwin. State Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) said the knowledge of the jogger and veteran hiker, the first executive director of the Central Pine Barrens Joint Planning & Policy Commission, could never be replaced. “I don’t think we would have advanced the pine barrens cause as quickly as we did without someone like Ray Corwin,” LaValle said. “It’s great to recognize such a great man, and even though it took eight years,

‘[Ray Corwin] said we couldn’t alienate people — that we needed as many people as we could to get involved. He was a people person — he could bring people together.’

it’s never too late to recognize someone who gave us so much.” The Ray Corwin Trail connects to the existing trail that starts just off Route 25A in Rocky Point. The new walkthrough boasts sights of the glacial erratic boulder known as Turtle Rock; the Warbler Woods, which are home to more than 30 species of warblers; a pitch-pine/oak forest; a red maple/black gum swamp; and the Colonialera Longwood Estate. “We’re a sole source aquifer and it’s so important to protect those lands, because that’s our drinking water,” said John Wernet, forester for the state Department of Environmental Conservation. Reisfield said the project took so long because those working on it had to work with the DEC, local governments and the Town of Brookhaven, much in the way Corwin did when he was alive. Corwin was responsible for developing a management plan for protecting the 50,000 acres in the pine barrens core, which cannot be built on, and enforcing rules of that plan and state legislation for regulating

development in the 47,000-acre compatible growth area. Before taking the helm of the pine barrens commission, he had worked as a computer scientist and mathematician for Grumman Corp. “This trail epitomizes what Ray tried to accomplish,” said John Pavacic, the current executive director of the Central Pine Barrens Commission. “It’s something that took work across all areas of government, as well as local groups.” Creating a trail, according to trail advocate Kenneth Kindler, is as much engineering, planning and maintaining as it is using the area’s natural landscape to define the trail’s shape. He said that Corwin brought environmentalists and local officials together to protect the pine barrens. “I remember him telling me once that I was focused too much on ATVs ruining the trail’s ground,” Kindler said. “He said we couldn’t alienate people — that we needed as many people as we could to get involved. That was just the type of person he was. He was a people person — he could bring people together.”

VILLAGE

Stony Brook ophthalmologist, 50-year PJ resident, dies at 82 “The eye is like a camera,” was the ophthalmologist’s favorite expression. Aaron Wigdor, an eye doctor with a practice in Stony Brook who lived in Port Jefferson since the 1960s, died in April at 82. He was among those who led the charge for Port Jefferson Village to purchase Harbor Hills Country Club from the late 1960s through the ’70s, an asset the municipality still owns today, and was the first men’s tennis singles champion at the club. He is survived by his son Doug-

las; daughter Caren Skutch; daughter-in-law Catherine; son-in-law, William; and four grandchildren, Jacob, Simon, Julia and Carly. Wigdor was born and raised in Bayonne, New Jersey. He attended Princeton University as an undergraduate and went on to medical school at New York University. He served in the United States Army Medical Corps in Texas at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio. He was also President Lyndon Johnson’s on-call ophthalmologist for a time. In 1968, he and his late wife Ellen moved from Texas to Port Jefferson, where the couple remained until relocating to Florida in

2016, reluctantly, according to his son. “He really did love Port Jefferson,” his son said. Both of his parents played a part in organizing the senior prom at Earl L. Vandermeulen High School, which was a long-standing tradition in Port Jeff, for parents of the senior class to help pick a secret theme unveiled only on prom night and organize the overthe-top event. Wigdor had many close friends in Port Jefferson, and as a young man enjoyed spending time out from of Darling’s Stationary, where many from the community would gather in what probably would resemble a social media chat group today. “You would never know he was a gossip,” his daughter said. “After my mother passed away, he got very sad. As a couple, they had a lot of friends in Port Jefferson. They were always going out. They were really pillars in the community.” Skutch described her father’s sense of humor and intellect as “acerbic,” a trait she said she loved. She said he enjoyed reading the dictionary as a hobby, and it was a favorite response of his to instruct his kids to “go read the dictionary” when they complained of being bored. “He was just an all-around good dad,” she said, adding that as a grandfather Wigdor taught her kids how to swim and play ball. Wigdor’s son said he hoped people who knew him would remember how caring and dedicated he was as a doctor at his practice

Stony Brook opthalmologist and Port Jeff resident Aaron Wigdor. on Nesconset Highway, which he established in 1969. “In this day and age when people go to see their doctor and are rushed in and out, I know that my father and his practice spent time with patients in caring for them and I believe his patients really respected that,” he said. Longtime Port Jeff residents Anita and Arthur Spencer, who knew the Wigdors, traveled to Puerto Rico and Atlantic City among other destinations regularly together. Anita Spencer called Wigdor a very sociable guy who had many friends and talked to many people during his days in Port Jeff. “He was very friendly,” she said. Anita Spencer said the two couples avidly followed the Kentucky Derby and the other triplecrown horse races, though Wigdor was also a huge fan of the New York Knicks. “He had loads of friends. He was very concerned about what was going on in the village, being part of the village.”

A fire broke out at 201 Main St. in Port Jefferson during the early morning hours May 5, putting a serious crimp in plans for caffeine addicts far and wide. The location, which houses Starbucks on the ground floor and Barito Tacos & Cocktails on the second floor, caught fire

early Saturday morning, according to an 8:30 a.m. May 5 Facebook post by Port Jefferson Fire Department Chief Brennan Holmes’ office. “A good stop was made and damage to the building was minimal with little extension,” the post said. The department was aided by members of the Terryville Fire Department. Starbucks was open as of Monday morning, May 7.

Former Mount Sinai church trustee dies Kenneth Batchelor, previously of Port Jefferson, and member of Mt. Sinai Congregational Church, was 86 BY WENDY INNES Kenneth Batchelor, 86, of Nobleboro, Maine, died in his home April 7 surrounded by family and friends. Born May 30, 1931, in Bramley, Surrey, England, he was the son of Arthur and Dorothy (née Peters) Batchelor. He met and fell in love with his future wife Irene at technology college in England. They married on Aug. 21, 1954, and emigrated to the United States from England via the S.S. United States in September 1967 with their three daughters. They eventually settled in Port Jefferson, where they lived for many years. Batchelor attained a bachelor of science honors degree in physics from University of London, England in 1953. He worked at Rutherford High Energy Laboratory in Chilton, Oxfordshire, England, from 1953-67. In 1965, he and his family spent a 15-month work sabbatical at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This eventually led to a full-time offer to design, commission and operate a new proton linear accelerator. Batchelor’s career allowed him many opportunities to travel to laboratories around the world, collaborating with fellow scientists. He visited China, Switzerland, Japan, France, Germany and England, among many locations within the U.S. He made contributions to “Encyclopedia of Physics,” published by both McGraw-Hill and Macmillan, and authored or collaborated on more than 100 papers in scientific journals and conferences. His crowning achievement was being a guest on Jon Stewart’s “The Daily Show” with Steve Carell in 2000, in a comedy piece about his work with particle accelerators. Batchelor was a competitive athlete who enjoyed soccer, softball, tennis, bowling and golf. He coached youth soccer teams for the Village of Port Jefferson for several years. His family can attest to the fact that he was a fierce table tennis competitor, and he taught all his grandchildren how to score a goal at soccer. Batchelor is fondly remembered by his family and friends as a patient, quiet, loving man, with a wicked sense of humor. He loved the outdoors, and ensured that his family learned to appreciate nature as well. The family enjoyed numerous camping trips and hikes around New England. Batchelor also loved animals, domesticated and wild. He was a strong advocate for social justice and wildlife conservation. He volunteered his time and donated money to low-income housing organizations; the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; soup kitchens and local food pantries; land preservation and conservation groups; peace protests; and hunger walks. Batchelor was an active member and trustee of Mount Sinai Congregational Church for many years, and later at Edgecomb Congregational Church in

Kenneth Batchelor Maine. He was moderator of the Suffolk Association of the New York Conference of the United Church of Christ from 1997-99. In the late 1980s, Batchelor was a founding member and ultimately served as president of the Suffolk County Chapter of Habitat for Humanity. He was a hands-on member, learning the ropes by assisting on a Lower East Side building project in New York City. In 1988 he attended a Habitat annual international meeting in Chicago, where the Suffolk County chapter was officially recognized. It was following this meeting that the real work of the chapter began, and Batchelor was actively involved in building multiple homes within Suffolk County over the ensuing years for families in need. He is survived by his wife of almost 64 years, Irene; daughters Lynne Warkentien of Waldoboro, Maine, Susan Wells of Jamesport, and Wendy Innes of Wading River; grandchildren Sarah Innes of Astoria; Rachel Wells of Rocky Point; Geoffrey Wells of Jamesport; and Amy Innes of Wading River; sisters Iris Wallace and Janet Childe; and nieces and nephews in England. A celebration of Batchelor’s life will be held May 26 at Mount Sinai Congregational Church, located at 233 North Country Road in Mount Sinai, at 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Michael J.

SPORTS BILL LANDON

Nnate sweeps four events to lead Warriors to victory BY BILL LANDON Comsewogue’s Ejim Nnate eliminated every would-be threat as she swept all four of her track and field events in the Warriors’ 90-60 win at Bellport May 8. Of her victories, her 33-10 leap in the triple jump and 16-6.75 mark in the long jump were personal bests. The biggest improvement was in the Warriors’ 4x100-yard relay time. Although second to Bellport’s 49 seconds, the Comsewogue quartet of senior Gabrielle Griffin, junior Gabrielle Savage, sophomore Sabrina Donoghue and freshman Brianna Quartararo finished in 51.4 seconds off its average time of 53. “Our 4x100 relay today is a season-best for us,” head coach Matt Brown said. The relay team owns the school record and finished sixth at the St. Anthony’s Invitational May 5. According to Brown, the girls are ranked sixth in the county. Daniella Barchi, who came in eighth in the 1,500 race-walk at the invitational, won the event against Bellport by shaving two seconds off her time for a personal record. Before the Top 10 county race-walker finished a 7:26 time, she ran a 7:28 Saturday. “I was definitely nervous, because the race-walk is my main event,” Barchi said. “Surprisingly, after competing in the 1,500 run, I felt ready to go. I said, ‘I can do this right now,’ I was so pumped.” Quartararo, who ran four events, is currently the school record holder in the 400. She finished fourth in the event at the St. Anthony’s Invitational.

Comsewogue 90 Bellport 60

“When I run, I feel like giving up, but I know that I can’t do that,” Quartararo said. “I always know I can go faster — I can always give it one last kick — because I want to go to nationals.” Griffin is ranked second in the county in the 400 hurdles, eighth in the 100 dash and 15th in the 200 dash, according to Brown. She is hoping for a shot at qualifying for the state championship in the 400 hurdles in addition to the relay. The Warriors improve to 4-1 with one meet remaining in the regular season.

Brown, who said he’s expecting better jumps for his team in the future, said Comsewogue will have its hands full when the team travels to North Babylon (4-0-1) May 10 at 4 p.m. If the Warriors win, they’ll be in a two-way tie for first in League IV with West Islip (5-1).

Clockwise from top left, Gabrielle Savage; Ejim Nnate; Kaitlyn Monroe; Cynthia Apone; and Daniella Barchi compete during a meet at Bellport May 8.

OPINION Letters to the editor

Vote Tidwell and Walker The upcoming school board election on May 15 poses to be the most important school board election that this community could face in the next coming years. In my opinion, the current school board was negligent and broke its fiduciary responsibility to this community when they put forth a $30 million bond last fall in light of the pending LIPA settlement that faces our district.

Asking us to pay for infrastructure and security needs is one thing, but asking us to pay for new turf fields and lights when our sports teams are shrinking — we can’t even field a woman’s softball team — begs the question: Who is spending our money? On May 15 I will be voting for René Tidwell and Ryan Walker. In meeting with them, I find Rene and Ryan prepared to

become board members, fiscally prudent and to be the watchdogs that will hold our administration accountable. We need change on this school board and we need it now. We need people who are thinking in the best interest of the district while also representing every taxpayer in this district.

Doreen DiBiase Port Jefferson

Zamek, Biedenkapp and Kronberg the right choices I collectively share the belief of so many Tracy Zamek, Ryan Biedenkapp, and Dr. Jason Kronberg supporters that each of them brings a level of financially realistic attention of our residents coupled with an educationally responsible depth of understanding to the students of Port Jefferson schools. We need village leaders like them who have the ability

to think through issues and guide compassionate decisions that are supportive of both our fellow neighbors and children. They have organized events to raise needed funds for educational projects, volunteered their time as guest speakers at school events, and have always led the charge for students with instructional needs. It is very evident their

unwavering commitment is firmly planted in the stability of Port Jefferson as well as the schools that educate our future. This is why on May 15 I’m voting for Tracy Zamek, Ryan Biedenkapp, and Dr. Jason Kronberg for Port Jefferson school board.

Chris Donarummo Port Jefferson

Join me in support of Zamek, Kronberg and Biedenkapp I never write letters to our local newspaper. However, I feel it is important to our students, residents and entire school community that I write in support of three special people: Ryan Biedenkapp, Dr. Jason Kronberg and Tracy Zamek. Ryan, Jason and Tracy are wonderful parents and active volunteers. They have a tremendous sense of pride in our village and have unselfishly made contributions in support of children and families throughout Port Jefferson. We need residents like

Ryan, Jason and Tracy on the school board who are both receptive and sincere when addressing the needs of our students. I truly admire their dedication and community accomplishments. I am also extremely proud of their optimistic approach along with the level of integrity they have shown throughout this campaign; no deceitful tactics or negative statements in an attempt to undermine others! Their positive perspective is one we can all embrace. They have the utmost confidence in our neighbors, village

and schools to help support our children. We have an exceptional community and an awardwinning school district. I know Ryan, Jason and Tracy have the energy and spirit to continue our district’s outstanding distinction as members of the Port Jefferson school board of education. On May 15, I hope you will join me and my family in helping to elect Ryan Biedenkapp, Dr. Jason Kronberg and Tracy Zamek.

Danielle Friedman Port Jefferson

Vote for good neighbor Walker Joan and I, Dwight Stecker, unconditionally support Ryan Walker for Port Jefferson’s school board of education. In 1977, 40 years ago, my wife and I moved into our modest and beloved home on Pine Tree Court. We are now both 73 years old, love living here and actually hope to die in our home. For about 28 years we have not had any children attending Port Jefferson schools. Our sons Keith and Sloane began to attend the Scraggy Hill School in 1977. They loved (almost) every moment. Thanks in good part to the Port Jeff education and the community support they received, both are vital contributors to the country and world. When we moved to Port Jefferson, Ryan’s wife, Kelly, and family lived directly across the street. Kelly, her

brother and sisters grew up as friends with our sons. Kelly, like her mother, earned a doctorate in nursing and taught at Stony Brook University. Kelly now commutes to Georgetown University where she is a professor of nursing. Some years ago, Ryan, Kelly and their two children, Evelyn and Sam, purchased the home of Kelly’s parents and moved back across the street. What a joy for Joan and me. We always loved Kelly — she was the first girl to play baseball in the Village League (on my team) — her children are wonderful and her husband, Ryan, immediately endeared himself to us and the neighbors. If you need help for medical needs, shoveling snow, moving firewood, he is always available. A mensch. When Ryan retired from

the New York State police, he joined me on the Mather Hospital Institutional Review Board, joined the Port Jeff fire department, became a security officer for Port Jeff schools and returned to college to study physical therapy. Last year, Ryan Walker helped educate Joan and me and the whole PJ community regarding the negative impact of the proposed school board bond referendum. We are forever grateful for his efforts. However, we still feel betrayed by the actions of the current school board. We know Ryan Walker will never betray us or any member of the community. He will honestly and transparently do his very best to represent the interests of our community.

Joan and Dwight Stecker Port Jefferson

Fiscal responsibility a must The May 15 Port Jefferson school trustee election and budget votes are the most crucial in years in terms of addressing urgent needs for long-term fiscal sanity at the board level and all taxpayers’ school tax burdens. René Tidwell and Ryan Walker, who both have children in the district and are committed to ongoing educational excellence, are the only candidates in this election who stand for critical financial planning and professional analysis in confronting the devastating loss of LIPA tax funds, which, though highly predictable, was never faced squarely by the school board for several decades now. We are 30year residents. Tidwell has many years of high-level work at major corporate banks in financial planning and research execution of bank auditing procedures and

holds designations as a Certified Treasury Professional. A retired sergeant with the New York State police, Walker is one of the state’s first Certified School Resource Officers. He is trained in best practices in school safety and the incident command system, and he serves in our fire department. Three other candidates — including one incumbent — are running together. They all strongly supported the $30 million bond fiasco, which was overwhelmingly (and wisely) defeated by residents last December. One of these candidates, Dr. Jason Kronberg, is a partner in a local pediatric practice that was prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s office of the Justice Department under the Medicaid Fraud Control Act for illegally billing Medicaid for over six years. We find it inconceivable

he could serve on a BOE overseeing the spending of the enormously profligate budget of $43-plus million in this tiny, shrinking district of fewer than 1,000 students. Please see Alex Petroski’s article on Kronberg, in the May 3 edition of The Port Times Record or go to www. justice.gov/… long-islandpediatrics. Clean house: There has never been a greater need for new leadership, tough and transparent fiscal accountability, and communication with and engagement of all taxpaying stakeholders in this district. We need board members who don’t rubber-stamp the administration without community input. Tough decisions lie ahead. Please elect Tidwell and Walker.

OPINION Editorial

Mother knows best With Mother’s Day coming up this Sunday, our editorial staff wanted to take a moment to reflect and give thanks for the powerful mothers and grandmothers who have shaped our lives. Rita J. Egan: Both my mother and I often find ourselves feeling as if we’re turning into my grandmother, and many times have uttered the words, “Grandma was right about that.” After my parents separated, I moved in with my maternal grandparents, so it’s no surprise my grandmother had as much of an influence on me as she did on my mother. It’s been said it takes a village to raise a child, and I agree. I am the person I am today thanks to not only my mother but my grandmother, my Aunt Eileen, friends’ mothers and so many who took me under their wings. So on Mother’s Day I say thank you not only to my mom but to all the women who made a difference in my life. Desirée Keegan: I don’t know where to begin, and it’s hard to find the words to say, but “Thank You” are very small ones for the sacrifices my mother has made every single day. Her kind support throughout the years, sharing in my triumphs and tears, has never gone unnoticed. I love the way she stops to listen, even if she doesn’t have the time. Or how she loves to make me laugh with her old jokes or terrible singing, especially when she knows I’m down. Watching a single mother be so selfless is envious, and even if I could be just a piece of what she is, I’d consider myself a success. Alex Petroski: When I was about 22 I irresponsibly made a huge mistake that cost me a job on my previous career path. The mistake was a result of laziness and immaturity, and I also knew I was comfortable at my retail job, making enough money to feed myself and do things with friends. When I told my mom about the mistake, it was in the context of being comfortable with staying at my retail job anyway, so no big deal. She didn’t take it nearly as lightly as I did. She challenged me to do something that would make her and my dad proud, and that conversation has been the guiding principle of my work life ever since. I can’t speak for her as far as if I’ve succeeded or not yet, but it will never be for a lack of effort. Thanks for knowing when to push me, Mom. Sara-Megan Walsh: It’s said that distance makes the heart grow fonder. This is the second Mother’s Day since my mom, Carol, moved south to Florida. While I’m not great at making regular phone calls, I miss being able to drop by the house on a Friday night to say hello and ask for your advice while hopefully snagging a free slice of pizza. You provide encouragement when I’m running ragged and gently push me to keep going. I love the homemade sweaters, but they aren’t a substitute for your hugs. Kyle Barr: Dear Mom, the way I know you love me is because you always worry. You worry about what I’m going to eat when I get home. You worry about if I’m getting enough sleep, if I take the time to be with friends, if my friends are treating me right, about what I want to do with my life. You worry if I am home too much, you worry if I’m gone too much. You worry about my student loans. You worry about my bank account. Worry runs like grains of sugar around your mouth and down your cheeks. It’s real, solid, sweet. I see it sparkling in your eyes when you look at me. Distilled, worry becomes pure empathy. At the beginning you gave me life and made it a part of yours. To worry is to make another person more important than yourself. You made me and in doing so made me a part of you. I couldn’t properly explain how much I love you. Perhaps you can see it when I worry. I worry that you don’t think enough about yourself. I worry that I would hurt you if I ever left home. I worry that you worry a little too much. At least please know that I love you because I worry.

Letters to the editor

America in crisis All structure of acceptable language and behavior within our traditional society is now in transition from logical common sense. Our nation is being directed contrary to the principles of our Founding Fathers. We are presently in great danger by following a progressive path that is leading our nation away from our Constitutional freedoms. To counter this sedition, we must immediately return to the glory of our past. In less than 20 years social and moral standards have changed. Political parties are in chaos, causing a state of utter confusion and disorder endangering our republic.

With this chaotic condition our educational structure is a disaster. Change is altering past values of teaching in reading, writing, English and math. Many elementary students cannot identify their first president. Social engineering is in conflict with parents’ moral standards and their authority. Our school values were once recognized far above other nations. This has become the water drip torture of change. There is much to be desired in our left wing professors who are brainwashing our siblings in the philosophy of Karl Marx. Siblings now feel free to destroy school property

given their behavior as freedom of expression. Action required: immediate suspension and parent notification without a financial refund. In retrospect, let us once again return to quality education that gave much to the glory of our nation and our freedoms. On moral values, we are now entering medical procedures that leave doubt in ethical surgery. The ability to alter preordained identity is not choice. It is a mandate of deity. Madness I feel thy sting. God bless America.

Leonard Henderson Port Jefferson

Zamek, Biedenkapp and Kronberg have my vote Please join me in supporting Tracy Zamek, Ryan Biedenkapp and Dr. Jason Kronberg for the Port Jefferson school board. I am so pleased they have decided to run and dedicate their time and energy to represent us as trustees for the BOE. They have always demonstrated pride and character

in supporting our village and children. Tracy, Ryan and Jason will bring a level of trustworthiness in addressing any educational or budgetary issues that will undoubtedly face our community, schools and students. Port Jefferson needs respected and understanding village

residents like Tracy Zamek, Ryan Biedenkapp and Dr. Jason Kronberg to volunteer and go to work for an even better school community. Please vote for them on May 15. Thank you.

Margie Griffith Port Jefferson

Addressing gang violence Dear Director James McHenry, On April 12, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement presented the Fiscal Year 2019 president’s budget request. The testimony included a commitment to open 75 new immigration courtrooms in 2018 to reduce the backlog of pending immigration cases. As [director of] the Executive Office for Immigration Review, [which] identifies locations for new immigration courts, we respectfully request you place at least one of these new locations on Long Island. According to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, Suffolk and Nassau counties rank in the top 10 among all counties in the nation for pending cases before immigration courts, with 23,178 cases as of Dec. 31, 2017.

Suffolk and Nassau counties have absorbed a significant number of unaccompanied alien children with 1,219 being relocated in Nassau County and 1,472 going to sponsors in Suffolk County in 2017. Pending cases contribute to associated gang violence on Long Island as gang members target youth like UACs. While serving as Suffolk County’s police commissioner, now Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy Sini stated in his testimony to the Committee on Homeland Security, “of a sampling of 143 active gang members, 89 entered the United States illegally and currently do not have legal status (39 of whom are UACs), 48 are of unknown immigration status, and 17 have legal status (temporary or otherwise).” An adequate

expansion of EOIR resources to Long Island would assist local law enforcement’s relationship with ICE to implement enacted immigration laws. The backlog in immigration courts is a result of years of policy failures under prior administrations. Effective immigration judge teams are necessary to carry out the U.S. Department of Justice’s statutory responsibility to prosecute administrative immigration cases. Suffolk and Nassau counties could efficiently use these resources to address the backlog as well as prioritize incoming cases related to gang violence. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

OPINION

Red Sox, Yankees fans feel October excitement in May

t’s only May and, despite the warm weather, it feels a bit like October around here, at least, if you talk to fans of the Yankees and Red Sox. The two best teams in baseball, as of earlier this week, were preparing o go head-to-head in a three-game series that seemed to have more on the line than a typical series between the heated rivals at this point in spring. The Red Sox had that incredibly hot start, winning 17 of their first 19 games, tearing up the league anyone who By Daniel Dunaief and dared to try to compete with them. The Yankees, meanwhile, started slowly, sputtering to a .500 record.

D. None of the above

And then the Yankees seemed to have gotten as hot as the weather, scoring runs in the clutch, pitching with confidence and bringing in rookies like Gleyber Torres and Miguel Andujar, who play more like seasoned veterans. On a recent evening, my wife and I made a quick stop to the grocery store. As we were walking out, a friend saw me in my Yankees sweatshirt. The friend asked if the team pulled out a win, even though they were losing 4-0 in the eighth inning. As my wife waited patiently, I recounted nearly every at bat that led to another improbable Yankees comeback. A man who worked at the supermarket came over to listen, put up his hand to high-five me and said he had a feeling they might come back. While the team measures the success of the season by the ability to win the World Series, the fans, particularly during a season with so much early promise, can bask in the excitement of individual games or series.

The first season, as the incredibly long 162 games from March through October is called, can include numerous highlights that allow fans to appreciate the journey, as well as the destination. Nothing is a given in a game or a season. We attend or watch any game knowing that the walk-off home run the rookie hit could just as easily have been an inning ending double play. Ultimately, the most important part of the season is the recognition that it is a game. You can see that when the players mob each other at the plate or smile through their interviews with the sideline reporters after a tight contest. Year after year, all these teams with all their fans hope the season ends with a victory parade. They want to be able to say, “I was there.” Ultimately, in life, that’s what we’re hoping for. Moments to cheer for friends and family, to celebrate victories and to enjoy these contests.

Indeed, the winners often look back on the moments when nothing came easily, when their team, their family or their opportunity seemed to be so elusive. These are occasions when nothing that seems to go right turns into those where everything goes according to plan. They don’t happen because you’ve got the right fortune cookie, put on the right socks or asked for some deity to help your team beat another team full of equally worthy opponents, whose fans utter the same prayers. They happen because of the hard work and dedication. They also often happen because people are taking great pride in doing their jobs and being a part of a team. Right now, it feels like these two blood rivals are well-matched, facing off in a May series that can bring the energy of October. And, hey, if you’re looking to connect with someone, put on a Yankees or Red Sox sweatshirt and head to the supermarket.

by that point and they came to accept the new arrangement, even were infrequently pleased with my new occupation. And since my office was only some five minutes from the house and three minutes from their school, I felt I could get to them quickly if they needed me. I was able to look in on them in the course of each day. In fact, I had more trouble convincing my mother than my children that it was acceptable to work both inside and outside the home. I just could never understand how all three unfailingly picked friends who lived on the farthest ends of the school district and had to be driven back and forth. That and the constant car pooling for games and music lessons made me grateful that I had learned to drive — not a typical skill among my urban classmates when I was growing up. I weathered their teenage years as best I could, sometimes marveling that only my children could make me scream (and my mother). At the same time, my husband and I vicariously enjoyed the children’s various successes: academic, musical and athletic. They were

blossoming into young adults and we were regularly irritated by them and immensely proud of them. As the children reached their later teenage years, the family dynamic shifted. My husband was terminally ill, and the children were forced to deal with death. My mother and my father had both passed on by then, and the boys had been deeply touched by their loss, but the death of a parent at a far younger age than expected for either their father or themselves struck me as a cruel trick. Somehow we had not lived up to our part of the parenting contract. I guess that was when my children started to become my friends. It probably would have happened around that age anyway, but we became allies in the face of adversity. And then life’s wonderful joys unfurled. ... They graduated, got jobs, found their loved ones and eventually made me a grandmother. That’s a club one can’t apply to oneself, but having arrived there, I can endlessly sing its praises. Bottom line: How ultimately satisfying it is for me to be a mom.

Scenes from a mother’s life

rom the time I was a young girl, I wanted to be a mother. The urge to hold and to love a baby, my baby, was a conscious one. I also had professional ambitions, so in those days, before women expected to be able to do it all, there was a bit of a conflict in my head. Curiously, while I don’t remember telling anyone about my maternal urges, I did mention it on my first date to the man I eventually married. He told me that he too By Leah S. Dunaief looked forward to having children, so the rest is history. When I did have my first child, I was quietly terrified. I was the caboose child in my parents’ families, meaning that my parents were older, and everyone in my generation was already born before I came on the scene. There were no babies for me

Between you and me

to practice on, I had never given a baby a bottle nor changed a diaper, and I was afraid I was inadvertently going to do some terrible harm to a helpless infant. It wasn’t until the baby’s one-month checkup, when the pediatrician exalted about how his development — size and weight — were “off the charts,” that I began to relax and believe the baby would survive my ignorance. After that the parenting urge was so fulfilling that we did it twice more in record time. Judging from my friends’ tales of their children, we had it easy with three boys. They were exceedingly energetic but never moody, didn’t hold a grudge for more than three minutes, weren’t particular about what clothes they wore and could be entertained with a generous supply of miniature trucks on rainy, “indoor” days or any ball game on “outside” days. Baseball on our dead end street was their favorite, and I became a pretty good pitcher, if I do say so myself. They didn’t much like it when I started the first newspaper and was away from the house a great deal. They were all in elementary school
