About:
In a heartwarming display of solidarity and respect, numerous seniors from Massapequa High School took to Merrick Road last Thursday morning. With care and dedication, they adorned the roadside with blue ribbons, and at Burns Park, crafted a poignant tribute in the form of a large blue “JD” on a fence. Their efforts were a heartfelt gesture ahead of Officer Jonathan Diller’s wake and funeral.
We applaud these students for their meaningful contribution to the Massapequa community. Their actions not only demonstrate their deep sense of empathy and solidarity but also serve as a testament to their commitment to honoring the service and sacrifice of Officer Diller.
In times of loss and remembrance, it is heartening to witness the outpouring of support from our youth. Their small yet profound gestures of kindness and respect remind us of the power of community and the importance of coming together to honor those who have dedicated their lives to serving others.
To the students of Massapequa High School, we extend our sincere gratitude for their touching tribute and commend them for embodying the spirit of compassion and unity. Your actions have made a difference, and your community is proud to stand alongside you in honoring Officer Jonathan Diller’s memory.
