"The Purple Heart Way" Ceremony for Veterans

Assemblyman Michael A. Montesano is hosting a dedication event at the Hicksville VFW on Monday, November 14, 2011. At the end of this year’s legislative session, both houses passed a measure that would designate the Northern State Parkway as the “Purple Heart Way.”
