Dear Colleagues,
 
It is with great sadness that I inform you that Denise Foley passed away Fri., Sept 13th. For many years, Denise was a much loved and respected teaching aide at Searingtown. Denise was also a dedicated and hardworking HTA building rep who worked tirelessly to help our members in any way she could. She spent her summers working at the Herricks Summer Recreation Program. We will remember Denise's smile, her willingingness to help others, unselfish acts of kindness and respect toward both students and fellow colleagues.

The wake will be held at:
