had everything they needed. His kindness, generosity, strength, determined nature, thoughtfulness and being an all around great guy are just some of the ways he showed what an amazing person he was.

From the distant darkness, it’s no songbird tuning-in when the turkey lets loose his call. So much like the bird itself, it’s a big and a slightly comical noise, followed then by a long silence.

At best, the town’s highway superintendent is diligently picking at various parts of the heap, hoping to loosen it a tiny bit. Suffolk County officials were active participants this time, which is helpful, and they will be sitting down ... by Editorial Board
