SIGN PETITION HERE

Both served with the William P. Faist Volunteer Ambulance Corps, which continues to serve the Chestnut Ridge community in the Town of Ramapo 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

On the early morning hours of September 21st, both Moshe and David lost their lives in a car accident, just miles from the communities they served every day. “For all that these two pillars have given the community, the least we can do it dedicate two streets to them.” reads the petition.

Please take a moment to sign this petition so we can bring it to the Town of Ramapo, the Village of Chestnut Ridge, and the Rockland County Executive Office.

Residents may notice a few more beards among the officers of the Town of Haverstraw Police Department this November, and it’s all for a good cause.

The department announced that officers are participating in No-Shave November, an annual campaign that raises awareness and funds for cancer-related causes.

With approval from Town Supervisor Howard Phillips, the Town Board and the Chief of Police, participating officers will be putting down their razors for the month while supporting the charitable initiative.

Each participating officer will also make a personal donation to help support the effort.

The department encourages residents not to be surprised if they see officers sporting some extra facial hair throughout November, noting that it’s not a change in grooming standards but rather a way to show support for an important cause.

No-Shave November encourages participants to embrace their natural hair growth while raising awareness and funds for cancer research and support programs.
