Suffolk County 4th District Legislator Tom Muratore passed away on September 9. He was 75.

Muratore had a lengthy resume of public service that included a 34 year career in law enforcement. He served in the Suffolk County Police Department, including 18 years as Vice President of the Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association. In 2002, at age 56, Muratore graduated New York Institute of Technology, earning a Bachelor of Science Degree in Hospitality Management. He was an alumnus of Central Islip High School's Class of 1963.

Muratore was first elected in 2009 to serve Suffolk County's 4th Legislative District which covers the heartland of Suffolk's real estate that includes the communities of Centereach, Farmingville, Medford, Lake Grove, Selden, Lake Ronkonkoma, Port Jefferson Station, Coram, Holtsville, Holbrook, and the Brookhaven Town portion

MASTIC BEACH TEEN ARRESTED FOR ATTENDING SCHOOL, LEADS PROTESTS FOR DISTRICT TO FULLY OPEN

THOUSANDS GATHER TO

By James Emery Looking to go back to school full time with extracurricular activities and sports, Mastic Beach teen Maverik Stow has taken to the streets in protest following his suspension and arrest for illegally entering school grounds.

Stow’s desire to return to class has set up a battle with the William Floyd School District which had him arrested for trespassing after he insisted on coming in when he wasn’t scheduled due to the school’s COVID restrictions. The showdown had the district threatening to close the high school and force its 3,000 students into taking all classes online if the senior continued his attempts to enter school grounds when he’s not supposed to.

After national news coverage and both students and parents taking sides, Stow said on Monday: “Having the William Floyd School District close down the high school to all in-person learning for all students has never been my objective and this is of primary concern to me. I would like to assure the student body, the parents, the school district and the general public that I will not continue to gain entry into the high school to go to

The man who committed suicide after reportedly living with his murdered father and sister in their Bellport home for up to 12 days should never have been let out of jail after serving four stints in state prison and facing five new criminal charges, said Assemblyman Joe DeStefano as he rallied local officials and law enforcement in a renewed push to repeal the dangerous bail laws signed into law last year.

“This is yet another tragic example of how the new bail laws are failing,” said DeStefano, who was joined by fellow lawmakers, the Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association, and representatives of law enforcement from throughout the state in renewing their call to repeal the laws.

Bellport Murder/Suicide Renews Call To Repeal Dangerous Bail Laws “Bill Farnum had a long rap sheet including grand larceny, criminal possession of stolen property, drug possession, resisting arrest, and various driving infractions and served four different prison terms,” DeStefano said. “With five new charges pending against him in Suffolk County, he should never have been set free.”

According to Suffolk police reports, Farnum killed himself after being pursued by officers on routine patrol in East Patchogue. When they went to his home, they found the bodies of his two family members.

“He’s been terrorizing the community for years,” a neighbor was reported as saying. “This is about as violent as it gets.”

“One party rule in Albany has brought us cashless bail and made our

How many times do we have to see the results of these dangerous laws before the governor and his colleagues in the state legislature support our call for repeal.”

“The Democrats refused to listen to input from law enforcement when drafting this law and several other pieces of

anti-police legislation and this is the result,” said Assemblyman Anthony Palumbo. “This must be repealed and any ‘reforms’ must include all of the stakeholders.” A candidate for the state senate seat held for many years by the retiring Kenneth LaValle, Palumbo highlighted the death of Jonathan Armand Flores-Maldonado on William Floyd Parkway in January as another reason to repeal the bail laws.

“These Progressive laws were not even in affect for a month before a repeat drunk driver was let out of jail and destroyed another family by driving drunk.

These laws are making our communities less safe and must be immediately repealed.”

“There is no doubt that the new bail laws have

made our communities less safe,” said Alexis Weik, a candidate for the state senate. “I stand proudly with the leaders who are rallying to repeal these dangerous laws and challenge the Democrats to get on board.”

“The Suffolk PBA joins Assemblyman DeStefano and legislative leaders from throughout the state in renewing our call to repeal the bail laws to make sure people like Bill Farnum with extensive criminal histories and multiple charges pending aren’t let back out on the street to terrorize our communities,” said Noel DiGerolamo, PBA president, during DeStefano’s rally at PBA headquarters in Brentwood.

“Everyone knows these soft-on-crime

laws were a mistake and should be immediately repealed.”

“We are rallying to make sure that repealing the bail laws remains one of the key issues in the upcoming election,” DeStefano said.

“The choice on November third is clear: RepublicanConservatives stand for law and order and safe communities while the Progressive Democrats are soft on crime and support no bail for all misdemeanors and many felonies for repeat offenders such as Bill Farnum.”

Also attending DeStefano’s rally were Assemblyman Andrew Garbarino, a candidate for Congress, Assemblymen Doug Smith and Mike LiPetri.

Quest Continues for Covid Answers or have proper services deserve answers and I will continue to keep up the pressure until we learn what really happened so tragedies like this don’t ever happen again.

By Assemblyman Joe DeStefano

Our elderly population was hit hard after the governor forced nursing homes to take in COVID patients and I have never stopped trying to find out why. After months of goading, the legislature finally held hearings where many questions went unanswered by the Cuomo administration. Those who lost loved ones at a time when they weren’t even allowed to see them

Why were COVID patients forced into nursing homes when large-scale facilities went unused at the Javits Center in Manhattan and the state universities at Stony Brook and Old Westbury, in addition to the Navy hospital ship that was dispatched to New York Harbor by the President? Beds were made available at enormous cost, yet they weren’t used as the governor put virus patients in with vulnerable nursing home residents.

The Assembly Republicans recently appealed to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to force the state to provide critical, missing information on nursing

home deaths. This spring, the CDC issued rules mandating that nursing homes report all COVID-related deaths of their patients regardless of where the death actually occurred.

This rule, however, did not require reporting prior to May, which is when most of the fatalities in New York state took place.

Despite repeated requests from lawmakers, the administration will not tell us how many nursing home residents actually died. Their refusal is a blatant attempt to hide the severity and scale of the crisis from the general public and hampers our efforts to make sure these mistakes are not repeated.

The reporting discrepancies make it difficult to understand the full scope of what happened in New York’s nursing homes. The inability to review data prior to May, in

addition to the state Department of Health’s unwillingness to provide full details on patient mortalities, is troubling and a disservice to the families of those who died.

Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker, under direct questioning at the August 3 hearing, said, “I know that you want that number and I wish I could give you the number today, but I need to be sure it’s absolutely accurate. I’m not prepared to give you a specific number.” To date, the state Health Department has yet to provide the information.

“We’ve heard from the families and friends of individuals who died of COVID-19 in nursing homes and story after story is heartbreaking,” my Assembly colleagues said in a joint statement. “Families of the more than 6,500 individuals who

have died in residential health care facilities due to the virus deserve answers. For the governor’s administration to continue to refuse to provide an accurate number of nursing home deaths is despicable.

We are imploring the CDC to change its reporting guidance so we may more accurately analyze the full scope of the true impact of the virus and better prepare for a potential second wave.”

As our state recovers from the pandemic, we need to remain focused on what needs to be done to prevent similar tragedies in the future. An honest and open exchange of information by the governor would certainly go a long way toward saving lives and we will not rest until he comes clean over the details of his administration’s performance during this crisis.

Thiele Seeking Presidential Scholars Program Nominations

Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele, Jr. (I, D, WF-Sag Harbor) is seeking assistance from his local high schools in making nominations for the Presidential Scholars Program.

The Presidential Scholars Program was established by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964 and recognizes high school seniors on the basis of outstanding scholarship.

In 2020, The State Education Department Interim Commissioner, Elizabeth R. Berlin, will nominate twenty high school seniors - ten females and ten males - from New York to be considered for this honor. As you contemplate the selection of your nominees, it may be helpful to consider what attributes the student possesses which make him or her stand out as having outstanding scholarship and what special challenges or obstacles the student has overcome while still achieving high academic

success. In making the selection, the Commissioner will consider involvement and service in school and community, leadership and character, writing samples, academic achievements, heavy workload, family responsibilities and extraordinary achievement or large hurdles overcome. The Education Department is also interested in nominations that describe how the student’s family, teachers, and administrators have better prepared him or her to succeed in college and career.

In addition to those nominations, Interim Commissioner Berlin is asking for an additional student to be included as a candidate for recognition for excellence in Career and Technical Education (CTE).

She will nominate up to five students in CTE programs, considering academic rigor, technical competence, employability skills, as well as ingenuity, creativity and real-

FASNY Awarded $1.7 Million Federal Safer Grant to Recruit & Retain Volunteer Firefighters The Firemen’s Association of the State of New York announced it has been awarded a $1.7 million federal grant to recruit new volunteer firefighters. The four-year Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant is awarded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The funding will be used to create statewide outreach campaigns, awareness programs and recruitment and retention activities.

“Volunteer firefighters and EMTs are a vital part of keeping New Yorkers safe. Increased call volumes and the current pandemic have strained our emergency services and this grant will go a long way in boosting our ranks,” said FASNY President John P. Farrell, Jr. “This commitment from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security speaks volumes about the importance of expanding our

volunteer departments to protect our communities day in and day out,” added President Farrell.

Currently, there are almost 1,800 volunteer fire departments in New York, staffed by approximately 85,000 volunteer firefighters. With an increasingly complex mission and growing call volumes, more volunteers are needed to ensure timely and adequate response in the communities they serve.

Volunteers provide 80% to 85% of the fire and emergency response in New York State.

Recruiting and retaining volunteers is a complex problem.

Economic and societal factors continue to present challenges to every volunteer department.

Especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, many departments have had difficulty in attracting new members. The goal of the FASNY recruitment campaign funded by this SAFER

grant will be to educate the public on the important service volunteer firefighters provide in their communities and, in-

turn, solicit more members of the community to become volunteers.

Legislator Sunderman Honors Italian-American of Distinction

Mastic Beach, N.Y. – Mastic Beach resident Frank Fugarino was recently recognized by Suffolk County Legislator Rudy Sunderman as the 3rd Legislative District’s Italian-American of Distinction.

Resolution 775-2018 designates October as “Italian-American Heritage Month” in Suffolk County.

This resolution gives legislators the opportunity to recognize an ItalianAmerican within their district as an Italian-American of Distinction.

“When selecting this year’s honoree, Frank Fugarino was the obvious choice,” said Legislator Sunderman.

“It is no secret that Frank is proud of his Italian heritage and uses every opportunity to promote ItalianAmerican culture. He is also very active in our community, working as an advocate on many important issues.”

Fugarino has been an active member of the community since he purchased a summer home in Mastic Beach in the 1970s. He has always been a true Italian-American family man, having grown up and raising his

family in the Bronx, and loves to cook big meals for his friends and family.

He married the love of his life, Anne, in 1967, and together they have five children and eleven grandchildren.

Fugarino was a counselor in the New York City school system and spent the final years of his career working as a principal in an alternative high school.

After retirement, Fugarino became a full-time resident of Mastic Beach and devoted himself to his community through civic activism.

Frank became immensely involved in the Pattersquash Creek Civic Association and became President of the civic in 2010. During his time as President, Fugarino proved himself to be a selflessly devoted leader who is involved in every aspect of the community from welcoming new residents and businesses, to the cleanup and beautification of Neighborhood Road.

“Frank is a great example of what is means to be a proud Italian-American,” said Legislator Sunderman. “I look forward to working with Frank for many more years to help improve our community.”

Legislator Rudy Sunderman joins Frank Fugarino and his wife, along with members of the Pattersquash Creek Civic Association, to present him with a proclamation naming him an ItalianAmerican of Distinction.

Letters To The Editor Dear Editor, Several of our neighbors and their extended family are all touched by the issue of equal rights for all... in this case how it affects men and women who are gay. Whether you know someone that is LGBTQ in your family or is a relative or a next door neighbor or because you recognize that in our great country there is room for the freedom to love who you choose and for the 'pursuit of happiness'... you may want to join this discussion.

My son Christopher, who we love dearly, is gay. So are association members and friends and children of friends. I can't imagine him and his partner Brad not being loved by others and their rights not respected. Or that he could be in danger and his safety threatened.

Imagine being sick in the hospital and not being allowed to see your partner? Imagine being denied the opportunity to have children or denied the blessing of adopting children and starting a family? Imagine your rights

to employment that you are suited for being denied? Imagine not being able to marry whomever you love? Imagine that businesses can discriminate against gay people?

Imagine the belief held by other Americans that they detract from a stable and prosperous society and effective military?

It is disheartening to realize that many in our country don't have the same respect for another's humanity. If you don't recognize how hurtful this discrimination is let's talk about it. Foremost among our American Beliefs is the Family and Equal Rights for All! Join in this discussion if you wish, let me know how you want to share your feedback.

Supervisor Romaine Submits 2021 Tentative Budget

Despite Revenue Loss and Increased Costs of Pandemic, Brookhaven Town Budget Stays Within Tax Cap by Cutting Spending Without Reducing Services Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine today submitted his 2021 Tentative Budget, which stays within the Tax Cap despite significant revenue loss and spending increases due to the COVID pandemic. All major tax districts within the budget are structurally balanced for the third consecutive year.

“The 2021 Tentative Operating Budget is conservative in its approach to planning for next year in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Because of strong fiscal management, we have been able to stay within the Tax Cap while maintaining all services for our residents,” said Supervisor Romaine. “By making surgical reductions in specific departments, we are able to control spending and protect taxpayers during these difficult economic times while providing critical funding increases for ambulance districts and other services necessary to protect our residents during this continuing pandemic.”

The Town responded to the financial challenges of the COVID pandemic in fiscal year 2020 with swift assessments of revenue loss and corresponding reductions in expenditures.

Total Town Revenues across all Tax Districts are projected to be $13.9 million less than the 2020 Adopted Budget, or 4.4%. While $257 million in unrestricted federal CARES Act funding was given to Suffolk County to offset financial impacts of the COVID pandemic, the County has not shared any of these funds with any Towns or Villages.

The 2021 Tentative Operating Budget strives to balance the

significant loss of revenue resulting from the COVID-19 Pandemic with the cost of maintaining all constituent services. The Town’s share of the Total Brookhaven resident’s tax bill will remain significantly low in 2021. The 2020 Tax Bill kept the Town’s share of total local municipal taxes to 5.67% for the areas outside the Villages of the Town, and 3.80% for the Village areas, based upon the 2019-2020 Property Tax Warrant.

2021 Tentative Operating Budget Summary Highlights

• Uses No Fund Balance to balance the budget in the six major Tax Districts • Complies with the New York State Tax Levy Cap • Complies with the Town’s Spending, Debt Management Caps and Fund Balance Policies • Maintains all constituent services • Provides for a flat Property Tax for the Part Town General Fund Town Wide Highway Fund • Keeps Refuse and Recycling costs to the typical single-family home to $1 a day • Grows the Landfill Post-Closure Reserve by $1.0 million; Other key initiatives supported in the 2021 Tentative Operating Budget include a better alignment between the Planning Division and Economic Development to ensure a coordinated effort for the Town’s “Brookhaven is Business” program, and a 3% increase in the contracts with the Town’s Ambulance Companies, who provide emergency services in the Town’s nine Ambulance Districts to ensure a continued qualified response to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

A reorganization of the Town’s Housing and Human Services Department is supported by the 2021 Tentative Operating Budget to allow for a dedicated focus on the Town’s $20 million U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) entitlement grants for the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program, Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), HOME, and HOPWA. In addition to the entitlement grants, HUD has awarded an additional $7.7 million in CARES Act funding

Supervisor Ed Romaine

to the Town for these programs, which cannot be used to support general Town operations. Given the magnitude of these programs and the complexity of compliance regulations, the full attention and support of the management team of the former Human Services and Housing Department is needed for these important HUD programs.

Brookhaven’s $307 million 2021 Tentative Budget, which comprises approximately 5.67% of the average resident’s tax bill, stays within the Tax Cap with an increase of less than two percent. The average

increase is $8.93 per household for the five major funds and maintains refuse and recycling costs to $1 per day.

Bay Area Civic Association Hosts Meet the Candidates Forum Interest by the community in the Bay Area Civic Association has been great as its new leadership has been meeting to lay out an agenda for the newly reestablished organization.

With dozens of residents expressing their support, the civic group looks to once again become a driving force in the community.

They have scheduled a Meet the Candidates Night on October 22 at the Mastic Knights of Columbus on Madison Street starting at 7 p.m. and are looking to take the forefront

on key issues affecting the area.

“Many of the residents contacting us feel the Bay Area needs to speak with a louder voice when it comes to the issues that affect us,” said the association’s Ken Olivio, who noted that supporting law enforcement and repealing the dangerous new bail laws are key issues for the community.

The group will also stand up to efforts to remove the statues on William Floyd Parkway and sponsor activities such as putting

up American flags and creating opportunities for families and local youth. One issue they would like to tackle is bringing back the Fourth of July fireworks to Smith Point Park.

“The fireworks at Smith Point were very popular in our community and should be brought back,” said the group’s new president, Fred Towle. Another is the removal of the red light cameras on William Floyd Parkway.

“We are tired of being looked at as a cash cow for the county,”

said association board member Peter Costelloe. “Until the red light cameras are removed once and for all, we want to see an accounting of every dollar siphoned from this community and we would like it returned to us in the form of county spending on our roads and parks.”

The group also supports the renovation of the MasticsMoriches-Shirley Community Library and the creation of new annexes. “We are looking to push forward more projects in our area

and receive more services,” said Frank DeNatale, the civic’s new recording secretary. “Bay Area residents pay substantial taxes and we need to make sure we get our money’s worth from the many taxing entities, including the town, county, state and federal governments.”

Anyone interested in getting involved with the newly reorganized association is urged to call 631-878-7800.

SUFFOLK CLOSEUP

BY KARL GROSSMAN There’s been a “dramatic rise in bullying,” declares Robert Colarco, presiding officer of the Suffolk County Legislature, in the opening pages of a report issued last month by a Suffolk County Youth AntiBullying Task Force.

“Bullying has become more insidious and prevalent with the rise of social media,” says Mr. Colarco. “The psychological and physical toll affects students of all ages, from kindergarten through college.”

The task force, he notes, was established last year by his predecessor as presiding officer, DuWayne Gregory. Mr. Gregory had conversations with Devin Moore, “a student who was racially bullied” at school in East Islip. And from their discussions “came forth the idea to establish” the task force to “include teenagers from across Suffolk County.”

It’s also been a bipartisan effort.

Messrs. Colarco and Gregory are Democrats, and a member of the task force was the legislature’s Republican minority leader, Tom Cilmi. In its opening pages Mr. Cilmi describes his being a victim of bullying. “I know a young man, a quiet, shy young man who, for years, cried about going to school,” he writes. “The verbal and physical bullying began in junior high school and continued through his first year of high school. It got so bad that the boy sometimes pretended to be sick to avoid going to school, and was often purposely late to avoid going to the bus stop.

The young man is now a county legislator”—Mr. Cilmi himself.

These days, says Mr. Cilmi, “Sadly, the consequences of bullying have escalated as well, with self-harm and suicide attempts unimaginably common even among middleschoolers.”

Devin Moore, now 16, whose experiences inspired Mr. Gregory

Dramatic Rise In Bullying to create the task force, and was also a member, writes in the report’s opening pages about how he “went through horrific bullying during my middle school years.” And he affirms: “Bullying prevention is a serious matter— one that cannot be ignored. Please consider implementing these recommendations. They will make an impactful change in an effort to prevent bullying.”

Setting up a county “standing, student-led advisory board” on bullying.

The recommendations focus on action: by Suffolk County, by school districts and by New York State.

Recommendations for the state include:

For Suffolk, they include: The county expanding “services provided at suffolkstopbullying. org, a website that was set up after the Suffolk Legislature in 2014 authorized it.”

Providing to “all schools in Suffolk” an online “Suffolk Stop Bullying Resource Guide” put together last year, which was also an initiative of Mr. Gregory.

Recommendations for school districts include: Having “dedicated high school clubs that focus on bullying.”

Working “with school districts to ensure that the Dignity for All Student Act’s requirements are followed.”

Working “more closely with students, student-led organizations and nonprofits.”

State legislators working “to extend the provisions of the New York State Dignity for All Students Act to cover religious and other schools that are currently exempt from the law.”

The founder and executive director of a non-profit group The Long Island Coalition Against Bullying, Joseph Salamone, himself a bullying victim, was a member of the task force. Mr. Salamone writes in the report: “Our organization is asked all the time how we can really combat bullying and will it ever end. The answer is always the same. Bullying CAN end with focus on respect and engaging all stakeholders in the discussion.”

Having the state “work with school districts to ensure that recertification training for teachers’ licenses includes segments and courses related to cyberbullying and how to identify bullying.”

To read the report—its formal title is “Suffolk County Youth Anti-Bullying Task Force Final Recommendations Report”—visit the coalition’s website at https:// www.licab.org/TaskForce

Having “student governments” take “a more active role in establishing bullying awareness programs and events.”

ASK MICHELLE “Your Family Therapist”

MICHELLE CAVALERI, LCSW-R

Wedding Officiant & NYS Divorce Mediator

Sleep is more vital to our wellness and overall functioning than we might realize. It is also closely linked with our stress levels. Safeguarding your sleep is important for many reasons.

MISSED SLEEP CONSEQUENCES

Because the effects of missed sleep are so subtle, they are easily overlooked, yet pervasive.

Sleep deprivation, usually less than 7 to 8 hours each night, can cause cognitive impairment and slower reflexes, as well as a greater emotional reactivity to virtually everything we face. This can exacerbate the stress we already feel and bring on additional stress. Over time, lack of sleep weakens the immune system.

SLEEP SABOTEURS

As with many other aspects of self-care, sleep is critical for stress relief. Inadequate sleep for several days in a row, feeds into a cycle of more stress and more missed sleep. The following are the main culprits for missed sleep: • Busy schedules - this can cause us to shave hours off our bedtime. Some folks get to the

Poor Sleep And Its Effects On Stress

point where having adequate sleep is seen as a luxury. Keeping in mind the negative effects of missed sleep, we should cut out some activities, or at least make room for daily power-naps.

• Outside influences – if your circle of friends and family skimp on sleep, you may tend to follow suit. It’s not easy to be the first to turn in for the night, but keeping your health and stress level as a priority should drive your decision.

• Habits - we may not realize when our habits are getting in the way of sleep. Drinking too much caffeine late in the day, exercising right before bed, using our computer late at night, can shift the melatonin levels and fool our body into thinking it’s earlier than it is.

• Underlying health issues – certain health issues, as well as medications, can negatively affect our sleep patterns. Stay committed to being in tune with a healthy body and seek medical advice when you suspect something may need attention.

ASK NANCY

Home Preservation Planning

BY NANCY BURNER, ESQ.

Q: A:

Page 13

What happens to your house when you enter a nursing home?

When someone enters a nursing facility for long term placement, there are several ways the Chronic Medicaid program can treat the primary residence. Usually the primary residence is a “countable asset” for the Medicaid applicant and needs to be sold. However, there are some exempt transfer and planning techniques that can preserve the primary residence.

Chronic Medicaid covers someone’s stay in a nursing facility.

There are certain income and asset limits for someone applying for Medicaid. The Medicaid applicant cannot have more than $15,750.00

in liquid assets (not including retirement assets), an irrevocable pre-paid funeral arrangement and a car. In order to apply for Chronic Medicaid, five years of financial statements must be provided to the local Department of Social Services to verify eligibility. To the extent that the applicant transferred or gifted any monies (or real property) out of his or her name within the preceding 5-year period, a penalty is assessed. If the primary residence was transferred out of the applicant’s name within the 5-year period, the transfer may make the applicant ineligible for a certain period of time. The following transfers of the residence would NOT result in a penalty:

1. Transfer to a spouse 2. Transfer to a disabled child (must prove disability and provide birth certificate) 3. Transfer to a caretaker child living with the applicant for at least two year immediately prior to institutionalization (must prove residence and provide birth certificate) 4. Transfer to a sibling with an equity interest Outside of the above exceptions, the real property cannot be transferred, and additional planning will be needed. For example, if someone needs nursing home care but intends to go home

after a few months, the application for Medicaid should specify an “intent to return home.” This means that the applicant needs to rely on Chronic Medicaid for a short-term basis and then plans to go home. Typically, Medicaid will allow the primary residence to continue to be exempt for up to 6 months. If the applicant returns home, there is no lien placed on the real property. If the applicant dies in the nursing home, there will be a lien placed on the real property for the amount paid on behalf of Medicaid. If the applicant exceeds the 6-month period, Medicaid will then count the house as a resource, and it will need to be liquidated to contribute to the cost of care.

If the house is sold, the proceeds will need to be paid directly to the Medicaid applicant. Last minute planning can be done to save about half of the proceeds.

In order to preserve your house and ensure that it is protected in the future, you need to consider now. If proper planning is done prior to the 5 year lookback, the primary residence (and potentially additional assets) can be protected and you will not need to be exhausted before relying on Medicaid.

Quick, Honey, Put on a Life Jacket!

ON THE SEA

BY VINCENT PICA, COMMODORE

First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard Auxiliary

A number of years ago, as I was doing a (free) vessel exam for the owner of a very substantial yacht, I got to the part where I ask to see the life jackets. He pointed me to a locker, which I opened to find the life jackets, stowed under an anchor, chain and additional rode.

This column is about that.

No Good If You Can’t Get To Them

I promptly asked him, “sir, do you have any grandchildren?” “Why, yes, I do. 5 of them. Why do you ask?” I replied, “Imagine what forces you will be under when you say these words to your grandchildren, ‘quick! Put on a life jacket!’ and you point to this locker. Which one of your grandchildren will be able to move this anchor to get to the life jackets – which are still in their wrappers, btw.” He blanched.

No safety equipment is of any use if you can’t get to it. Or, no one knows where it is except you, the skipper, who is likely to be mighty

busy just when safety equipment is needed. Talk about pressure!

Pre-Underway Check List

By USCG regulations, before USCG Auxiliary crews leave the dock on a mission – of any type or any duration – we must, as a crew, go through a check-list akin to a vessel exam.

This includes, among many items, where are: 1. The extra life jackets (we must have ours on at all times, which is an EXCELLENT idea, skipper) 2. The medical kit – and ensure that none of the perishable supplies have in fact perished due to the passage of time; 3. The “visual distress signals”, i.e., flares – and that they have not expired and are serviceable 4. The boat hook – a good tool

BY ROBERT CHARTUK

According to Van and Mary Field in their encyclopedic book on the history of the Moriches Bay Area, the home was originally built for Dr. P.V. Fowler. It has three fireplaces with the main one featuring hand carved ceramic tile depicting the Black Forest. Over and around the fireplace there is hand carved tiger oak with a beveled mirror and two leaded glass doors for bookcases that go from floor to ceiling. The two other fireplaces are hand carved brick, the book notes.

When I first moved here, I couldn’t help but notice a large headstone in the back yard bearing the name of Emil Voll, a local resident whose home on

While you are dealing with the boat and how it needs to be used to respond to the emergency, your crew can be dealing with the crew’s response. Whether it be a grounding, or far worse, a vessel sinking being dealt with, you as the skipper have a lot on your mind and a lot to deal with.

Can you imagine yourself also having to stop dealing with the emergency at hand so that you can direct crew to emergency equipment that will protect them and you from the effects of that emergency?

But Everyone Has a Pressure Point…

This list is by no means exhaustive, but it represents some of the major categories of pending disaster that may befall a skipper.

Beyond which, they start to crack. What do you do if the crew can’t handle the pressure as well as you are handling it?

Well, how about handing them the laminated lay-out of your

boat with the location of all the equipment labeled? Seriously, of all the risks that you spend time and money in preparing for and against, have you thought about panic as a risk? What then?

“Honey, hey, enough! Here, look at this – right now – and go get everybody in life jackets. Now!” It is likely to reduce the panic because now the crew has something to focus on other than the water sloshing on the floor boards…

Oh, remember the comment about a (free) vessel exam at the start of this column? If you want one, email me below. We’ll get you squared away.

BTW, if you are interested in being part of USCG Forces, email me at JoinUSCGAux@aol.com or go direct to the D1SR Human Resources department, who are in charge of new members matters, at DSO-HR and we will help you “get in this thing…”

Improvements Coming To Historic Funeral Home

FROM A TO Z My next door neighbor here on Main Street, the Wesche-Robertaccio Funeral Home, is undergoing a major renovation. The old home, built around 1888, was Herrmann’s Funeral Home as far back I can remember until 1989 when Ed Wesche took it over.

for extending for retrieving something – or someone – that may be just out of reach; 5. The Man Overboard “apparatus”, i.e., line and ring to throw to someone who has indeed fallen overboard 6. And fire extinguishers

Main Street is also in the Fields book. The story goes that when Wesche took over Herrmann’s, he provided the headstone for his plot at Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. A competing funeral service complained that the stone was too big for the cemetery rules forcing Wesche to replace it.

Pre-Renovation

Living on Main Street my entire life, it doesn’t bother me living next to a funeral business. The visitors are generally quiet, except when some of the services incorporate bag pipes, which I don’t mind anyway. I would always get advanced notice of an upcoming funeral when the casket company truck

Post-Renovation

Wesche-Robertaccio Funeral Home

shows up. Sometimes I get liquor bottles on my lawn and plenty of cigarette butts, which don’t bother me either. I make sure I don’t mow my lawn when there is a service.

I supported the renovation and wrote a letter on behalf of the new owners, Stan and Dave Savicki, for the town zoning board hearing. I was wondering when the project would start and as luck would have it, ran into Stan at the Staples in Patchogue where he was getting copies of the plans and let me know it was imminent.

The project eliminates parking on my side of the property and incorporates landscaping all the way from Main Street to the back lot, which is fine by me.

Hat’s off to Stan and Dave Savicki for investing in the old home and giving Bay Area residents a nice place to send off their loved ones. It will be noisy for a while with all of the banging and sawing, but the end result will be worth it.

Grief During the Pandemic: Part One

By Barbara Guarino Kruk

It’s been nine grueling months since the world first heard about a remote village in China where a virus had killed several people. The news reported an outbreak of something foreign, COVID-19. We listened, we were curious, but China was a long way from our shores. Now, so many months later, not only has the global world changed but our American way of life has changed exponentially. Life, what we used to refer to as ‘normal’ is, and perhaps, never will be the same again. The simple things we took for granted no longer exist. Since the days of our Neanderthal forefathers we were nurtured into a herd mentality. The earliest humans realized it was far more productive and socially pleasant to live, hunt and work collectively as a clan, tribe, or community. There was safety in numbers. Today, because of that littleknown virus, we have been mandated to practice social distancing and stay in place. COVID-19 has transformed our American society. It has infiltrated our lives in countless ways. We no longer work, play, educate or worship in the same manner that we have since the beginning of our country. This insidious virus has invaded the fabric of our existence. Our workplaces lie vacant, the shelves on many retail stores are only half full. Restaurants, theaters, gyms, and a myriad of other businesses that provide goods and services have been shuttered.

Education, the backbone of any successful nation, has sustained a tremendous blow. Many children now learn virtually from home, isolated from their classmates and teachers.

We can only speculate on the duration of this situation. Others only attend physical class on certain days with the remainder of the week spent in virtual

classrooms. For the children who were not struggling in their studies and who have parental supervision and the financial ability to acquire the proper computers virtual learning may prove to be a success. Unfortunately, not all children will succeed with this type of educational platform, whether it be from lack of ability, lack of parental supervision or the funds necessary to buy a computer. To say nothing of how they will grow socially without the interaction of their peers.

Economically, with tens of thousands of workers being let go or furloughed, the financial situation is dismal at best.

Those considered ‘essential’ workers have not been as deeply impacted as those who were operating marginally in low paying restaurant, retail, or manufacturing jobs. Those seeking relief through unemployment which has reached an all-time high, are only temporarily making ends meet. Small business owners and those in the service industries are hard pressed due to the mandatory shutdowns. Of course, at the other end of the spectrum are those business or service providers that are flourishing due to the demand of people who cannot leave their homes. Home improvement superstores, contractors, grocery, and food purveyors are busier than ever.

Current socio-economic imbalances are more acute now than ever before and that imbalance has contributed to a malaise of destruction across the country and around the world.

Peaceful demonstrations have erupted into vicious attacks and destruction of property. Major cities nearly decimated by the violence, looting and mandatory closings.

Of course, depending on your religious preferences, this would be a good time to rekindle your faith,

sadly however, even the faithful have been tested and relegated to praying in isolation. With restrictions on group participation and close contact many, if not most, churches have closed their doors.

As if all the above were not enough, mother nature has been stirring the pot with massive fires, flooding, and hurricanes. What’s next-locust?

The global community has been affected by deaths surpassing one million souls. It would seem that no one has escaped the wrath of this heinous virus.

Now, you are wondering what this all has to do with grief. It has an incalculable impact on our lives, our traditions, and our faith.

Death that occurs within a family or a community has previously brought people together to respect the person who died, to console their survivors and to support their loss in a spirt of solidarity. Again, we hark back to our ancestors and the herd or tribe mentality. Today, the loss of a loved one is even harder on the survivors because they grieve in isolation. Many elect an immediate burial or cremation because funeral providers have been restricted by law on how, and who, can come to the funeral home for services.

Restrictions on the number of visitors, the wearing of protective masks and social distancing have compounded the loss.

Hugging, kissing, holding of hands and any show of affection and comfort cannot take place. The religious rites associated with death have also been impacted. In the early phases of the pandemic houses of worship were closed, funeral masses were not offered and clergy were observing the order to stay in place. For those of devout faith

this was a crushing blow and for those who were practicing their faith only marginally it may be the final straw of their faith.

Every culture, since recorded history, practice funeral traditions. Today, many of those traditions have been set aside in the face of this great virus.

It is hard to find sympathy during a pandemic. Why? Death is so personal, yet when there are so many dying

around you the ability of others to truly empathize with your single loss is overshadowed by the sheer magnitude of the masses. Each day hundreds of lives are lost. We have developed a mentality of fear which has only been fostered by our isolation.

This is the first in a series of articles dealing with the unique factors created by the pandemic and how it has affected the way we handle death and dying.
