Great time with Councilman Ortiz, Judge Santos and friends at SW Johnson’s annual Fire Prevention Open House. Thanks to all the volunteers at SW Johnson for all that they do to keep the community safe.
Today, marks the 45th anniversary of the Brinks robbery, when a group of domestic terrorists murdered #Nyack Police Sgt. Edward Grady, Nyack Police Officer Waverly "Chipper" Brown and Brinks guard Peter Paige.
Their dedication to service and commitment to sacrifice is something we must never take for granted. May we never forget the memories of Peter Paige, Edward O'Grady, and Waverly “Chipper” Brown. And may we honor their legacy by always backing our incredible law enforcement heroes.

Fantastic time at the annual Rockland Indian Food Festival! The food, entertainment and atmosphere was great as always. Big thanks to the event organizers and sponsors. Looking forward to coming again next year!
Honored to join the Rockland County Volunteer Firefighters’ Association for their 114th Annual Parade in beautiful #WestHaverstraw. Big thank you to hosts SW Johnson SFE Co No 1 and to all the men and women who volunteer at fire departments across our communities to help keep us all safe. Deeply grateful.
It was a true pleasure to be invited to attend the grand opening of La Vie Medical & Wellness Center in #Nyack this afternoon. They’re a great addition to @VillageofNyack and Town of #Orangetown. Wishing the team great success!
It was a true pleasure to join so many friends, family and supporters of Lauren Shields for the announcement of legislation by @NYSenatorWeber to honor the life and legacy of Lauren by renaming Rockland Lake’s Nature Center the “Lauren Shields Nature Center.”
Lauren was an extraordinary human being who touched so many lives through her personal story and organ donation advocacy. It was deeply moving to hear personal accounts of Lauren’s impact from those who were fortunate to know her and work with her, and from her amazing mother Jeanne Shields.
Today’s announcement comes on the anniversary of the signing of Lauren’s Law, and it was wonderful to hear from former Senator @DavidCarlucci, who championed that legislation during his tenure in office.
May the Lauren Shields Nature Center serve as a source of remembrance, inspiration and hope, and may we never forget Lauren’s memory.
What an incredible day with our Quisqueya family in #Haverstraw for Quisqueya Sports Club’s annual Community Day. I want to thank my brothers, President Diaz, former President Germosen and the QSC board for their hospitality, friendship, and everything they do for the community. 🇩🇴
