Rocky Point Rocky Point faculty basketball game raises thousands for veterans BY RICH ACRITELLI DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM The sounds of the Rocky Point student’s cheers rippled throughout the school’s gymnasium Feb. 9. They packed every inch of the stands, and some screamed their encouragement while standing toward the sides of the gym, all to watch their high school faculty and teachers duke it out for the first Swoopin’-N-Hoopin’ basketball game. Beyond the roars and excitement of watching educators layup and hurl attempted 3-pointers, the event and its participants helped raise over $3,500 for a local veterans group. It all came thanks to the idea of one longtime Rocky Point teacher who was wishing to give back to the community. Since the moment he entered Rocky Point High School as a social studies teacher in 1986, Brooke R. Bonomi has always lived up to the words of service to helping this North Shore school district. Armed with a contagious smile, a can-do attitude and a drive to excel at every task, this longtime educator organized one of the biggest events that Rocky Point High School has seen in some time. Bonomi mobilized almost every part of this school to lead a Wounded Warriors basketball game Feb. 8 to raise mon-

ey for Rocky Point VFW Post 6249’s efforts to help veterans who have been physically devastated from the war on terror. As the fans entered the hallway toward the gym, they were greeted by countless baskets of assorted prizes collected by a multitude of school clubs, items that were later won by the fans through a massive raffle that raised $3,500 to assist the needs of the local VFW’s wounded

warriors initiatives. Even as Bonomi ran this entire function, he also played basketball with his fellow staff members that were comprised of four teams. Each squad of teachers, administrators, aides, security and even grounds keepers were coached by the students who drafted and traded these players in the days leading up to the game. Bonomi even enlisted the help of Ath-

letic Director Charles Delargy who served as the basketball commissioner for this game. During the draft that was held in the school’s auditorium, Delargy read the top selections as main rules interpreter for this athletic event, and guidance counselor Michael Conlon helped pick and play music that was tailored toward each participant. Bonomi planned this fundraiser for months with his Be a Nicer Neighbor Club. Support was also provided by school athletes, the technology club, the school band as well as staff and community members to help ensure that this basketball game was a smooth success. As he approaches the end of his career, Bonomi has always been motivated to get the students, teachers and administrators involved in causes to benefit the community and beyond. For weeks, the students saw Bonomi’s presence in the main hallway selling tickets, dribbling a basketball and playing music to promote this game. A constant presence next to him were the brilliant smiles of fellow teachers Dan Capell, Jenessa Eilers, Gina Grillo and Carly Tribby who were helping bring attention to this event. VFW Post 6249 Commander Joe Cognitore served as the grand marshal for the game. The RP BASKETBALL Continued on A5

Rocky Point

Rocky Point Jewelers celebrates 40 years in the community BY DAVID LUCES DLUCES@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Honesty and service — that’s what the owners of Rocky Point Jewelers say have been the mainstay of their shops for 40 years. Originally born from a coin collecting hobby between father and son, Anthony Bongiovanni Jr., the general manager of the store, said that after he graduated high school he and his dad hatched the idea of opening a small coin shop. The coin shop eventually turned into a fullfledged jewelry store. “I realized early on though that jewelry was the way to go for a daily business — so we went in that direction,” Bongiovanni said. From there, Bongiovanni would pursue and receive a graduate gemologist diploma from the Gemological Institute of America, the highest degree awarded by the institute. He also holds the title of certified gemologist with the American Gem Society. Bongiovanni said he learned much from his father. “My father taught me honesty and hard work,” he said. “He meant everything to the store. He was here every day — he was a fixture — always there to lend encouragement to the staff.” Anthony Bongiovanni Sr. passed away in 2011, but his impact on the store and the community remains. “My father was a big influence — he was a great man,” Ann-Maria Bongiovanni-LaBella, who works with the family business, said. “I see a lot of my father in my brother.” Bongiovanni-LaBella worked as a secretary for many years in the Hauppauge area until that

Obituaries George Roach

George K. Roach, of Elmsford died Jan. 2. He was 66. Roach was born May 7, 1952, in Manhattan, the son of the late George and the late Helen (Short) Roach. He was a manager at Con Edison in New York City. Roach is survived by his daughter Jennifer Testa of Nesconset; sons Daniel Roach of Sound Beach, Christopher Roach of Rocky Point, Shawn Roach of Long Beach and Ryan Roach of Holbrook; and his eight grandchildren. A funeral Mass was celebrated Jan. 7 at St. Anthony of Padua R.C. Church, in Rocky Point. Burial followed in Holy Rood Cemetery in Westbury. Funeral arrangements were entrusted to the Rocky Point Funeral Home.

company went under. With some convincing from her father she began working at the store in 1984. “Who would’ve thought it would’ve come to this,” she said. “[I remember] we started out with homemade displays my mother would make.” Over the years, the store has seen an expansion in size, and the family opened a Rocky Point Jewelers branch in Stony Brook. The Bongiovanni siblings point to customer service as essential to running a success business. “Anyone that sells retail will tell you that it

Delores Edlund

Dolores Edlund of Rocky Point died Jan. 6. She was 81. Edlund was born March 14, 1937, in Astoria, and was the daughter of the late Louis and the late Lillian (Harlow) Marino. Edlund is survived by her loving children, Lillian, Robert, Linda, Gary, Lisa and Glenn; brother Edwin Marino; 12 cherished grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren. She will be greatly missed by Dennis Harper. Dolores was preceded in death by her husband Robert and son Edwin. Prayers were offered Jan. 9 at the Rocky Point Funeral Home, and burial followed on Jan. 10 at Seaview Cemetery in Mount Sinai.

is a different environment now than it was years ago,” Bongiovanni said. “You’re competing these days with not only other retailers but big box stores and online [shopping].” The main store’s general manager said local jewelers like himself still offer services that are hard to find elsewhere. “If you need a ring sized, a chain fixed, a watch fixed or something custom designed — that is something that can’t done on the computer — you have to see a professional for that,” he said. Bongiovanni-LaBellla said you learn how to

Jan. 10. Tobin was born Jan. 19, 1947, in Brooklyn and was the daughter of the late Woodrow and the late Antoinette (Maucere) Wilson. She was preceded in death by her husband James Tobin and her son Douglas Fedorock. Tobin was employed by the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company in Garden City as a clerk. She is survived by her brother Robert A. Wilson of Bellmore. As per her request, all funeral arrangements were private. Her cremated remains were placed in a niche at Pinelawn Memorial Park. Arrangements were entrusted to the Rocky Point Funeral Home.

read people and get a sense of what they want. Many customers have become personal friends over the years. “Some of these customers I’ve been seeing for close to four decades,” Bongiovanni said. “You know them, you know their children, now we are meeting their grandchildren.” Bongiovanni’s sister said she sees her customers at the post office, at Stop&Shop and at the bank. “Generations of families have come here,” she said. “We try to keep people happy — your biggest advertisement is word of mouth, it really is.” Theresa Armone, who has worked at the store for more than four years, said it’s the level and quality of service they provide that has kept customers coming back all these years. Those who work at Rocky Point Jewelers agree the store works hard to earn the customers’ trust. Bongiovanni said people entrust them with their valuables and sentimental objects and it means never compromising their standards. “Times change, but it doesn’t mean your level of quality or service has to change — we try to improve on services as much as we can,” he said. The general manager said with the work ethic instilled in him by his father, good employees and a little bit of luck, the store is still around 40 years later. “It’s a tough retail environment out there,” he said. “There’s no two ways around it, but you always have to strive for better.” Rocky Point Jewlers is located at 29 Rocky Point-Yaphank Road and 137 Main Street, Stony Brook.

Frank was born April 27,1933, in Brooklyn the son of the late James and the late Louise (LaGuardia) Begina. He served in the Army during the Korean War from 1953 to 1955 and was later employed in Melville as an electrical engineer. Bucchino is survived by his beloved wife Patricia Ferrara-Bucchino; two loving daughters Denise Mueller of Little Silver, New Jersey, and Doreen Struble of Wake Forest, North Carolina; and four cherished grandchildren Courtney, Michael, Jillian and Jack. He was predeceased by his wife Frances P. Bucchino. A funeral Mass was celebrated at St. Mark’s R.C. Church in Shoreham. Burial followed with military honors in Calverton National Cemetery in Calverton. Funeral arrangements were entrusted to the Rocky Point Funeral Home.

veteran served in South Vietnam and Cambodia during the Vietnam War where he was awarded the Bronze Star. He is constantly reminded of this conflict through injuries that he had sustained overseas. Cognitore marveled at the ability of Bonomi to perform “a magnificent job in utilizing all ages of teachers to participate in front of a packed house of fans.” Standing next to the military color guard that posted the flag within the center of the gymnasium was senior Joshua Vogel who performed the national anthem. From the beginning of this project, Bonomi wanted the kids to accept ownership in putting the game together. Rocky Point senior Trey Miller, a skilled basketball and baseball player, was thrilled to support this function. “I love helping Bonomi and putting our minds together to make unique ideas happen for our school,” Miller said. “This was most importantly a patriotic program that showed respect to our local veterans that deserve to be recognized for their services to this nation.” All week and during the course of the game, the well-known creativity of Bonomi was always present through player nick names. These included library media specialist Jessica Schnall’s “Barkley,” Assistant Principal John “The Total Eclipse” Hart, social studies teacher John “The Bullet Train” Mauceri, English teacher Kevin the “Ginga Ninja” Parker, and the Most Valuable Player for this evening, math

teacher Jay “Rubber Band Man” Rand. Bonomi also enlisted the aid of the technology club, which played music and performed colorful commentary over the offensive and defensive prowess of these teams. While the players took a break during halftime, members of the band played music for the packed house of fans. Resembling a New York Knicks or Islanders game, the younger teachers ran along the stands throwing balled up Swoopen’-N-Hoopin’ T-shirts to the roaring fans. Through all of these activities, Bonomi had a radiant smile on his face as he watched a charitable and patriotic night come together. High school senior Julia Salino works closely with Bonomi’s club and she said she hopes the event continues into the future. “This night of fun should be a tradition that is permanently carried on at our school,” she said. Since the moment that he started teaching, coaching and being a club adviser decades ago, Bonomi has long preached the importance of helping others. High School Principal Susann Crossan, who has known this educator for many years, said she was extremely pleased about the game “Spirit and pride was abound with a packed house and I certainly appreciate the passion and energy Mr. Bonomi puts forth to create a positive climate and culture for our student body,” the principal said. One of the most important goals Bonomi showed to the school’s younger teachers was the significance of donating time and energy into the kids and community even well after the final period of the day rings. Over the last 33 years, Bonomi’s presence has represented the following words of President Theodore Roosevelt who wrote: “…(the figure) who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” Rich Acritelli is a social studies teacher at Rocky Point High School and an adjunct professor of American history at Suffolk County Community College.

From the inside of the bubble BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Connecticut-based educator and entertainer Casey Carle, a self-described “bubble expert,” visited Miller Avenue Elementary School Feb. 8 to showcase the strange and wonderful physics of soap, water and air.

Carle swept homemade bubble wands through the air, showering the floor in suds and water. As kids watched, he showcased how it was impossible to get a free-floating bubble in any other shape than a sphere, showed what a bubble looks like trapped in a cube, and even put young second-grader Brooke Benson inside a bubble, if only for a brief moment.

Wildcats lose heartbreaker in out-bracket playoff game BY BILL LANDON DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Shoreham-Wading River’s girls basketball team had theire work cut out for them in an out-bracket playoff game against Sayville Feb. 11. The Wildcats had faced Sayville twice during the regular season and lost by 19 and 22 points, respectively. However, this was a different Wildcat team with a swarming defense that held Sayville at bay, leading by five at the half and then by three to open the 4th quarter. Sayville was able to tie the game with 4 minutes left as both teams struggled to find the rim. Tied at 41 all with six seconds left, the officials called a foul on the Wildcats, sending Sayville to the line shooting two. Sayville made the first but missed the second as the Wildcats rebounded the ball with less than four seconds remaining. SWR managed to get a shot off, but it missed its mark as time expired in a heartbreaking 42-41 loss. Co-captain and senior Michele Corona led the way for the Wildcats with 22 points, fellow co-captain Abby Korzekwinski, a junior, netted 8 while eighth-grader GraceAnn Leonard banked six. The loss concludes the Wildcats season with a 9-10 record in League V with a 9-12 record overall.

Cape Cod A true classic, Cape C od homes have gabled roofs and unornamented fronts. Pueblo Flat roofs, straight-edge window frames, and earth-colored walls typify Pueblos.

Queen Anne Emerging in the Victorian era, the style features inventive floor plans and decorative chimneys. Contemporary Unmistakably modern, this style has odd-sized windows and little ornamentation. Ranch Ranch homes are set apart by pitched-roof construction, built-in garages, and picture windows. Craftsman Full- or partial-width porches are framed by tapered columns and overhanging eaves. Regency The style borrows the Georgian’s classic lines, yet eschews ornamentation. Creole A front wall recedes to form a first-story porch and a second-story balcony. Saltbox Its sharply sloping gable roof resembles old-time boxes used for storing salt.

Dutch Colonial German settlers originated this style, which features a broad, barn-like roof. Second Empire This Vi ctorian style features mansard roofs with dormer windows.

Opinion

Editorial

Watch the SC executive race

Suffolk County’s newest elected officials have taken their oaths of office in recent weeks, and some are still learning the ropes of their new office. But now, voters need to shrug off any remaining 2018 election season fatigue. County Comptroller John Kennedy Jr. (R) formally announced his campaign to take on incumbent County Executive Steve Bellone (D) for the county’s top office. Kennedy already faces a challenge from county Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) who’s made it no secret he wants to take charge, while his fellow Republican party member Larry Zacarese is watching and waiting in the wings. The state’s Jan. 18 voting reform bills have already brought out a wealth of contenders for the 2019 county executive race, as the legislation pushed the state’s primary elections from September up to June. This effectively lengthens the campaign season by three months. For the sake of voters, we hope all candidates will use these additional months to talk about critical issues — not make it an extended political slugfest. This year’s county executive race is critical. Our next leader faces a never-ending series of challenges to ensure this part of Long Island remains a safe, affordable place we’re still proud to call home. The county’s financial status is delicate. One party cries we face fiscal ruin if spending patterns continue while the other claims despite sinking bond ratings, the future will be brighter. Everyone knows taxes are high, wages haven’t kept up with inflation and Suffolk’s cost of living already ranks among the highest in the nation. Our future county executive needs to be ready to tighten down, cut costs and keep life affordable. Key to that will be a successful negotiation of the Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association’s contract that pays the salary of our police officers. It is one of the biggest pieces of the county’s annual budget and it’s on the table — how much taxpayers dig into their pockets will depend on a successful contract. Not to mention many of the county’s other employee unions need new contracts at reasonable and fair rates as well. Both parties agree that a focus on infrastructure and securing economic growth will help to ensure the area’s future success and stem the “brain drain,” or the droves of the 20- and 30-year-olds leaving Long Island to keep their hopes of the American Dream alive. How to best do it is a matter for debate that should be addressed by all candidates. We’d also like to see promises kept to existing projects, some of which have been decades in the making, such as Wading RiverPort Jefferson Rails to Trails and its commitment to help push forward with sewers in Kings Park. A lot of important tasks will fall to whoever wins the 2019 county executive race, so we encourage Suffolk residents to extensively question all candidates and demand concrete answers. Don’t settle for vague promises without a plan for execution. To the candidates, don’t let this dissolve into negative campaigning, name calling and bullying. We expect you to have an open-door policy and intelligent discourse of your future plans, if elected. You are expected to rise to the challenge before you, not mire Suffolk in a cesspool of negativity.

Letters to the editor

In support of raising tobacco age to 21 Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D)’s inclusion of tobacco prevention measures in the New York State 2019 proposed budget aims to protect our youth from the ill effects of tobacco use. As a volunteer with the American Heart Association, I’m proud that we have long advocated for anti-tobacco measures. We are glad to see that the proposed budget includes raising the minimum legal sales age for tobacco products to 21. We applaud the governor’s proposed statewide action. Tobacco 21 has already passed local legislation in both Nassau and Suffolk counties and expansion of this legislation statewide will enhance sparing

youth the potentially deadly effects of a lifelong smoking habit. While the tobacco industry has done a good job marketing these products to youth through candy flavors and the false idea that they don’t contain nicotine, the truth is most contain the same amount of nicotine as a pack of cigarettes. Adolescent brains aren’t fully developed until age 25, giving nicotine an incredibly impactful influence on cognitive functions, including the area of the brain related to addiction. Importantly, we know that raising the age will be successful. A 2015 study from the Institute of Medicine shows that

passing a new law can stop young adults from picking up their first cigarette. It also makes it harder for high school students to purchase tobacco and pass it on to their younger friends. Smoking is a leading risk factor for heart disease and stroke, and the leading cause of preventable death. Simply put, tobacco control measures that reduce smoking rates will save lives throughout our state. Dr. Russell Schiff President Long Island American Heart Association Board of Directors Director Ambulatory Pediatric Cardiology at Northwell Health

Democrats need to work with president If people would open up their eyes, they would see that the Democrats will do anything to get their way. In the 1980s the Republicans and President Ronald Reagan fell for their lies when they allowed citizenship for nearly 3 million illegal immigrants. The

Democrats promised that they would fix the immigration system, so this would never be a problem again. The Dems never worked with the president and the Republicans to fix it and that is why we have this problem today. President Trump (R) should never

give in until he gets border wall funding. The agents at the border say they need the wall. The Dems should stop playing politics. Trump agreed to the wall and additional security measures. David Jacobson South Setauket

Rhetoric flies in the face of Jewish values Recently, Congressman Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) spent his time attacking Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) in a series of Twitter posts that received national media coverage. Instead of doing the work he was (narrowly) elected to do by the constituents of NY1, our representative was engaging in Twitter attacks that betray the character of our district, the issues we face and the Jewish values Lee Zeldin claims to stand for. In one of the exchanges on Twitter, Zeldin said the following to Omar: “Those poor innocent Isis fighters and Palestinian terrorists,” as if to characterize this Muslim congresswoman as someone who condones violence, simply by religious association. Zeldin seems to have forgotten that he represents a diverse district and has Muslim constituents who should not be characterized with such hateful rhetoric. For Zeldin to initiate this sort of attack on a colleague that he admits he’s never personally spoken to is a slap in the face to the diverse constituency of NY1. This sort of rhetoric also flies in the face of the Jewish values that Zeldin claims to stand for. While he may take issue with Omar’s views, as Jews, we are

taught to engage in meaningful dialogue. In the Jewish books of the Talmud and Mishnah, there are countless discussions between scholars on passages, with rabbis arguing over the finer points of the law. This is what our faith teaches us, to think, to question, to dissect. Our faith teaches us to welcome the stranger, to respect those who think differently than we do, even when we disagree. When one of only two Jewish House Republicans rejects that intellectual rigor to attack a Muslim colleague, he rejects our Jewish values and does not represent our faith. This entire exchange was not in the best interest of constituents in the district. We are facing serious economic issues. Federal workers are reeling from the recent shutdown and fearing the next deadline to keep the government open. Zeldin voted against reopening the government on numerous bills. He also voted against H.Res.77: Expressing the sense of Congress that financial institutions and other companies should work proactively with their customers affected by the shutdown of the federal government who may be facing short-term financial hardship and long-term damage

to their creditworthiness through no fault of their own. And, he voted against H.Res.79: Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that government shutdowns are detrimental to the nation and should not occur. This past shutdown was painful for many constituents in the district and, with these votes, Zeldin is disregarding that deep economic and emotional pain. Additionally, many of us are currently in enormous shock over filing our taxes and owing money for the first time, thanks to the loss of our SALT deductions due to the Trump tax plan. Zeldin has done nothing to attempt to ease this or repeal the tax plan, despite the enormous burden on his constituents. These are challenging times. We need a leader with the intellectual rigor, discipline and morality to lead a diverse constituency. We need a leader who can unite this district rather than divide it. In his rhetoric and votes this past week, Congressman Lee Zeldin has once again shown that he is not qualified to provide that leadership for NY1. Shoshana Hershkowitz South Setauket

Raising the bar beyond good enough

W

e’ve all had moments when we wonder: Is this good enough? The answer depends, in part, on the importance of the outcome. If we’re a cardiac surgeon and we have our hands inside the chest of someone who needs a new valve or stent, good enough doesn’t cut it. We need to make absolutely sure we’ve done everything we can D. None because no one of the above wants to open up BY DANIEL DUNAIEF someone’s chest a second time to correct a small error or to retrieve something we should have removed. If we’re driving a car on a slippery road, a

turn that’s good enough on a sunny day may not be sufficient in the rain or on ice. We may need to slow down enough that we don’t need to hit the brakes as we head into the turn. Those are, of course, more extreme examples. Fortunately, most of us live in a world where what we do doesn’t seem so critical. We might be writing a paper about Shakespeare, filing legal briefs, collecting receipts for tax purposes or shoveling snow from our driveway. Each of those tasks, in and of themselves, may not seem to require our best because we have better things to do, we want to get through the class, or we’re tired and we need to give ourselves a rest. Nonetheless, the smaller efforts can, and do, add up. When we’re shoveling snow, good enough might miss a slick patch of ice that our wife or best friend might slip on while they’re walking to the car. Going beyond good enough could prevent the discomfort or injury from falling. Even an essay about Shakespeare may

require us to think more deeply about what it means to be in love. Down the road, that might help when we’re considering ways to express our admiration or appreciation of a partner, giving us wisdom and words beyond our years. Great words boost the power of our sentiments, just as the sight of a whale breaching transforms a trip to the beach into a memorable outing. Of course, operating at full strength or beyond good enough for everything may be so physically and mentally draining that we might spend too much time on activities we consider trivial, leaving us with fewer resources to tackle bigger challenges. So, how do we determine the difference between an activity that requires us to be good enough and another responsibility that mandates something more? For starters, we may not be capable of more than a few extraordinary efforts in a day. That may be a product of how much sleep we get, how much we can control in our day or how we

feel, especially if we’re battling a head cold or some chronic condition. Keeping ourselves healthy and making sure we have enough energy can and will give us the ability to vault us over the good-enough threshold. Good enough can become a habit, just like so many other efforts. We can run a mile every other day or we can go a bit farther each time. We may find that good enough for others, or even for former versions of ourselves, is just a start. We may raise the bar for the expectations we set for ourselves to the point where good enough today is so much better than earlier efforts. Routine or even mundane activities likely don’t require perfect performance. Doing them well, or even beyond “good enough,” keeps us sharp and focused for our more important tasks and also sets a good example for our children, who are watching and listening. We can and will improve our lives when we decide to raise our own expectations for good enough.
