MOMENT OF SILENCE
Moment of Silence in memory of Myrna M. Ross, longtime resident of the Town of Greenburgh passed on June 15, 2018. Myrna, along with her husband, William Ross, moved to Greenburgh in 1974.

Having earned the distinct honor of “Teacher of the Year” by NYC School District 3, she held leadership roles in education as a trainer and mentor to newly hired educators as well as in her church and was a member of two distinguished and nationally renowned community service organizations with a primary focus on promoting high academic achievement and professional advancement: Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. and Jack and Jill of America
