What a perfect way to kick off the Smithtown Recreation Department’s Live Summer Music Series at Long Beach — and to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Village of Nissequogue!

I was proud to join Mayor Richard Smith, my colleagues in government, fellow elected officials, Village Chief of Police John Valentine, and the incredible Smithtown Parks Department team led by Joe Arico for a beautiful evening with the community.

A special thank you to Pat Farrell and the Cold Spring Harbor Band for a fantastic performance. To the incredibly talented Gia Cellucci who is New England Conservatory bound… you sang the most beautiful National Anthem! Great moments are ahead for this talented opera singer. Thank you to everyone who came out to make the first concert of the season such a memorable night!

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandfathers, stepdads, father figures, and mentors who give so much of themselves to the people they love.

Today is a day to celebrate the lessons, sacrifices, strength, humor, and unconditional love that fathers bring into our lives. It is also a day to hold close those who are missing their dad, father figure, or grandfather a little extra today. May the memories, traditions, and love they left behind bring comfort and remind you that their presence is never truly gone.

Wishing all of our families a peaceful and meaningful Father’s Day.

Yesterday, Congressman Nick LaLota presented the Town of Smithtown with $6.1 million in federal funding that will directly benefit our residents.

This includes $1.1 million to extend public water mains to homes impacted by contaminated private wells, ensuring families have access to safe, reliable drinking water without facing overwhelming costs on their own.

Congressman LaLota also secured $5 million for critical road and infrastructure improvements in Smithtown. At a time when materials, labor, equipment, and everyday costs continue to rise — and Albany continues to fall short in sending Long Island its fair share — this funding keeps our tax dollars where they belong: right here on Long Island.

On behalf of the Town of Smithtown, I am deeply grateful to Congressman LaLota for fighting for our residents, protecting our drinking water, strengthening our infrastructure, and helping ease the burden on local taxpayers.

This funding means safer roads, healthier homes, and a stronger future for Smithtown.

Friday night was a proud and historic evening as we marked the centennial celebration of the Village of Nissequogue.

We began at the village border, where I was honored to join Mayor Richard Smith, our friends from the Village of Nissequogue, the Village Police Department, fellow local elected officials, and our outstanding Town team to unveil a beautiful stone monument commemorating 100 years since the Village’s founding.

From there, we continued the celebration down at Long Beach, kicking off the Smithtown Recreation Department’s Summer Music Series with our community and recognizing this once-in-a-lifetime milestone: 100 years of Nissequogue, celebrated in the very same year we prepare to commemorate the 250th anniversary of our nation.

It was a wonderful reminder of the history, pride, and community spirit that make Smithtown and Nissequogue so special. So much is in store for our community this summer, and I look forward to celebrating it together!

Yesterday was a great day at Kings Park Youth Football Commitment Day at the brand new field at Cy Donnelly Park!

I was proud to join with my teammates, Councilwoman Lisa Inzerillo and Councilman Tom Lohmann in supporting our young athletes, families, coaches, and the entire KPY Football community as they kicked off excitement for the 2026 season.

Special thanks to our incredible Parks Department, led by Joe Arico and especially Rob Renner, who is always there for our youth and continues to help make moments like this possible.

Have a spectacular season!

Yesterday was one of those days that reminds us exactly what makes Smithtown so special.

Smithtown Festival Day brought Main Street to life with families, small businesses, community organizations, volunteers, friends, and neighbors all coming together to celebrate the heart and spirit of our town. It was a beautiful reminder that Smithtown is more than a place on a map — it is a community built on pride, service, tradition, and the people who show up for one another.

A tremendous job by the Smithtown Chamber of Commerce and Mary Ellen McCrossen, whose dedication and hard work helped make the day such a success. And on top of it all, Mary Ellen became a first-time Glam-ma late Saturday night! Congratulations, Mary Ellen — what an unforgettable weekend!

I also want to extend my deepest gratitude to our incredible Town team — Parks, Smithtown Department of Public Safety, Smithtown Highways and Roads, and every person working behind the scenes. These are the men and women who arrive early, stay late, and make days like this possible. I am truly proud and grateful to work alongside the best team around.

Thank you to everyone who came out, supported our local businesses, and helped make Smithtown Festival Day such a memorable success. Days like this showcase the very best of who we are — one town, one community, and one Smithtown family.

Today, we honor the brave Americans and Allied forces who changed the course of history on D-Day.

On June 6, 1944, young men faced unimaginable danger on the beaches of Normandy so that freedom could survive. Their courage, sacrifice, and devotion to duty remain a lasting reminder of the true cost of liberty.

May we never forget the heroes who gave everything, those who carried the burden home, and all who continue to serve in defense of freedom.

This Memorial Day, we pause as a community to honor the fallen heroes who gave their lives so that we may live free.

From the ordinary tradesmen and farmers who laid down their tools and picked up arms in the Revolutionary War, to the brave men and women of our United States Armed Forces serving in dangerous conflicts around the world today, the story of America has always been carried forward by those willing to stand between freedom and tyranny.

Across generations, on battlefields from Lexington and Concord to Gettysburg, from the beaches of Normandy to Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and beyond, Americans have answered the call with courage, discipline, and a love for their fellow man that is difficult to fully comprehend. They laid down their lives not for recognition, but in service to something greater than themselves — their country, their families, their brothers and sisters in uniform, and the generations they would never meet.

We owe them everything.

As we gather today, let us also hold close the Gold Star families and loved ones who carry the weight of that sacrifice every day. Their empty chairs, quiet grief, and enduring strength remind us that the cost of freedom is not measured in history books alone, but in the lives forever changed by loss.

May we honor the fallen not only in reflection, but with the way we live. Let us strive to be better citizens, better neighbors, and better Americans in memory of the better men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

We remember them. We honor them. We will never forget them.

During National Police Week, I was proud to join the Town of Smithtown Department of Public Safety at Town Hall to honor the extraordinary men and women who dedicate their lives to protecting and serving our community.

This year’s Promotion & Awards Ceremony recognized remarkable acts of bravery, leadership, and public service — from lifesaving rescues during the historic January blizzard to courageous emergency responses and proactive law enforcement efforts that helped keep illegal weapons off our streets.

Congratulations to all of this year’s honorees, including Sgt. Brendan Dennihy, recipient of the 2026 Peace Officer of the Year Award, Fire Marshal Kyle McCarthy, Park Ranger Leyland Crocilla, Senior Fire Marshal Matthew Raia on his promotion, and the members of the Old Northport Road Task Force for their outstanding service to the residents of Smithtown.

I thank every member of the Department of Public Safety for their sacrifice, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to our community. Smithtown is safer because of your dedication and courage each and every day.
