On Saturday, January 2nd, the Longwood Community showed its true colors as the funeral procession for Staff Sgt Louis Bonacasa wended its way from Coram to Calverton. We can only hope that the amazing turnout by so many people at so many locations along Middle Country Road will in some way soothe the grief of Louis’ family and friends. RIP, Sgt Bonacasa. We will never forget your sacrifice. ( photo by Dave Pfister )
We, the Middle Island Civic Association, believe the strength of a democratic society lies in the citizens’ ability and inclination to participate in the act of governing. We further believe that in unity there is strength, and that the efforts of many may achieve results that cannot be achieved by the individual. We, therefore, encourage the people of Middle Island to participate in the process of government. Through our organization we encourage our representatives to be responsive to the needs of their constituents, and to preserve, protect, and foster the environmental, economic, historical, educational, and cultural amenities of Middle Island.
