Letter: Port Chester’s unique opportunity

I wanted to follow up on my husband’s letter to the editor of last week where he wished all the candidates for office well and encouraged the participants to wage a campaign that would make our community proud. 

From Our Editor: Happy birthday, Theo!

Our grandson, Theo Abel-Giorgi, turned one year old on 2/2/22, a palindrome which some, including me, say carries good luck, positivity and joy, while others say just the opposite. Either way, it is a day of strong energy. Theo, the son of Rebecca Abel and Joseph Giorgi, was treated to …
