To the Editor: The Port Authority will have the Tear Drop Monument removed. This is an affront to the martyrs whose names are enshrined on the Tear Drop Monument. They deserve better. There also several hundred plaques in the grounds surrounding the monument. These were placed there in memory of loved ones. I have one …
To the Editor: The Windmill Alliance would like to thank the family of Mr. Edward Norton Jr. for sharing the memory of their father and grandfather with us. Windmill Alliance has received many gifts in his memory, and on behalf of the Advisory Board (on which Ed served), the staff, and especially the participants and …
To the Editor: Recently, the residents of 16th Street, between Avenue C and Kennedy Boulevard, held a wonderful block party, to which the chairpersons of the Assumption Food Pantry were invited. In addition to having a terrific time, a 50/50 was held in order to help the O.L.A. food pantry. We would like to extend …
To the Editor: Mayor Smith and party: I voted for all of you because I felt you all cared for Bayonne and us, the people. I did not like what I read about the gas pipes being installed in Bayonne. Not only that it isn’t for Bayonne use, but for New York. Let New York …
To the Editor: I would like to thank the Bayonne Historic Society for being chosen to receive the Leadership in Community Service Scholarship.

He writes how humbled and honored he is to have the privilege of being the 3rd Ward’s public servant, but he …
To the Editor: I’ve just finished reading the story in “The Jersey Journal” (Aug. 2, page 10) about the Superior Court judge, Joseph Charles, who ruled against the Muslim wife, who accused her husband of sexual assault, kidnapping, aggravated assault, and criminal restraint. The judge apparently agrees with the husband, who felt his behavior was …
To the Editor: My husband and I recently lost the companionship of our feline friend, Mr. Spot. Mr. Spot was over 21 years old, possibly 24, as we figure his age. He was originally a feral cat born in the wild and probably the runt of the litter. He lost an eye defending his sister, …
To the Editor: I want to express my thanks to all my friends who sent me mass cards, words of encouragement, and offers of any physical help that I may need when I suffered a broken hip on the first day of my cruise. To my children who were there for me, I can never …
To the Editor: I would like to publicly acknowledge VFW Commander Glen Flora and his staff, Joe Kennedy and my lifelong friend, Mark Giannullo, for sharing their war experiences so profoundly during my students’ recent visit to the Post. They have created an educational gem on Ninth Street in Bayonne. After visiting on my own, …
