Postal Worker Acquitted

I don't know if any of you saw this in the papers. The postal worker that hit Marilyn Dershowitz in Manhattan was acquitted this week.

Marilyn's death was such a tragedy. My sympathies once again go out to the family.


I think of Marilyn often and all that she brought to her community. She is still loved and missed by so many! 

I want to take the time to remind you all that Nat has set up a fund to collect money to donate to the library and have them name it after her. I have recopied the donation directions below for those of you who feel so inclined. 


1- a check can be made out Pay to the Order of "The Phoenicia Library Assoc. Marilyn Dershowitz Fund."  The entire name of the account should appear.

2-  money can be donated online via the library's PayPal account accessible at 
 http://phoenicia.lib.ny.us
3-  money can be wired directly to
Phoenicia Library Association Marilyn Dershowitz Fund
Ulster Savings Bank
Routing Number  # 221971264
Account Number #  587012800
(If they receive checks written to Phoenicia Library, with the memo line it is in memory of Marilyn, that is fine, too, we can move the money over to the fund.)

The library mailing address is:

Phoenicia Library
P.O. Box 555
Phoenicia NY 12464-0555
