Memorial Day Ceremony3 theridgewoodblog.net

On this Memorial Day weekend, we remember those who sacrificed their lives for “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who are grieving.

NV5 is scheduled to present a draft plan to the Planning Board March 3.”
