Our hearts and prayers are with the family of Al Hubner, a true warrior and honorable WW2 veteran. His service to our country paved the way for a remarkable legacy in the Town of Wappinger.

The loss of a warrior is deeply felt by us all, and our thoughts are especially with his comrades at VFW Post 5913 during this difficult time.

This weekend, we had the incredible honor of attending the dedication ceremony for the monument of John Bailey, a true pioneer from Fishkill. For those who may not know, he crafted the legendary sword wielded by General George Washington during the Revolutionary War. John Bailey’s legacy reminds us that greatness often begins in our own backyards. His dedication, skill, and craftsmanship helped shape history.🇺🇸
