My husband Stanley and I moved to Williston Park 50 years ago.
When we a·rrived we thought it would be a stop off point. As we raised our family we realized we had found our home and the place we wanted to raise our children.
Mayor Ehrbar is always there for his residents. He’s helpful in any way he can.
So when my husband Stanley passed away four years ago my family reached out to the one person I knew could help fulfill his wish to be buried in the Veteran’s Cemetery in Nassau County, Mayor Ehrbar.
The mayor contacted Congressman Steve Israel on his cell phone and explained that the family was told there was no room at Pinelawn.
The congressman made a few phone calls and the following morning as is the Jewish religion, Stanley was buried at Pinelawn National Cemetery.
In gratitude for the mayor’s efforts, my family asked that donations in Stanley’s memory go to the Williston Park Beautification Committee.
The Village Clock was beautifully planted that spring and a plaque put on a planter at the clock.
The mayor and board under his leadership have maintained the Village with the highest standards: communication, roads, lighting and support of the business community. He is a people person, always available and we are lucky to have him as mayor.
The Integrity Party candidates,Kevin Rynne, Bill O’Brien and Kevin Kiley, will continue to maintain the quality of life that makes Williston Park a wonderful place to live and raise a family.
Please vote Row A on March 20 for Ehrbar, Rynne, O’Brien and Kiley.
