Proud of Herald's Person of the Year


To the Editor:
Don Poland is definitely someone that we are very proud of!

He was always a leader growing up, in and out of school — especially with his two brothers and two sisters behind him. We’re very glad that he’s now getting recognition for all of his hard work and dedication to his students.

Thank you, Mary Malloy and the Lynbrook/East Rockaway Herald, for naming him the Person of the Year, and for acknowledging all of his good qualities. We are definitely proud of our son!

Charlotte and Don Poland
Hernando, Fla.


County leglislator should be full-time job

To the Editor:
Re the Herald story “County legislators push for pay raises in 2018,” in the Dec. 17-23 issue: I have no problem increasing the salaries of Nassau County legislators, as long as it’s their full-time job, and there’s public financing of elections, so that those of us less well-connected can apply for the position.
