These towns show that some of New York's most memorable scenery and historic places sit beyond the state's largest cities. Whether shaped by natural features, historic institutions, rescues, or performance spaces, each one offers something distinct. Some are quiet and scenic; others are more active and event-driven, making them well-suited for weekend getaways, scenic drives, and slower visits across New York

Request Military Funeral Honors: Eligible veterans are entitled to a military funeral honors ceremony, which features the folding and presentation of the American flag, the playing of Taps, and a firing detail. Speak with your funeral director to arrange this.
Apply for Memorial Items: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides government headstones or markers, burial flags, Presidential Memorial Certificates, and commemorative medallions for eligible veterans.
Create an Online Tribute: Share their service story and photos on the Veterans Legacy Memorial or the VVMF Honor Roll.
Perform a Grave Tribute: Place specific coins on the veteran's headstone. A penny means you visited, a nickel indicates you attended boot camp together, a dime signifies you served together, and a quarter means you were present when the veteran passed away.

Falling in love is a passive, chemical thrill. Staying in love is an active, daily choice that requires vulnerability, emotional maturity, and continuous work if the years continue to fade.
What’s an unhappy married man to do when his wife is having a love affair with others? This was my dilema, my wife had literally fallen for Ernie and Jules aka the Galo brothers, maybe also with Cracklin’ Rose and she went into stubborn denial, refusing to join AA. And guess who was subsidizing their parties? I kept quiet for decades, but when I heard one of my daughters use abandon to describe our divorce, I had to speak up.
