Welcome to The New Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship---in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

NEWS 12 REPORT---TODAY'S RALLY TO SAVE THE RIVER---Protestors raised their voices and their concerns Saturday about Holtec International's plans to dump millions of gallons of radioactive wastewater into the Hudson River.

The company is in charge of decommissioning the now-closed Indian Point nuclear power plant. Holtec International says it has pushed back the date of the radioactive water dumping to allow more time to address the public's concerns.

The plan to dump that water into the river, however, received plenty of pushback from the demonstrators in kayaks on the Hudson.

The "Rally to Save the River" event drew crowds to the Town of Cortlandt to demand a safer method of the wastewater disposal. READ AND SEE MORE AT 'Rally to Save the River' protests plan to dump Indian Point wastewater into the Hudson (news12.com)

OBITUARY & SERVICE INFO FOR COLONEL EDMUND "BEAU" MASON RIELY

Colonel Edmund “Beau” Mason Riely, USA Retired, passed away in his home and surrounded by his loving family on May 3, 2023 after a long, tenacious and courageous journey with brain cancer.

Beau was born on February 12, 1972 in Fort Bragg, North Carolina and was raised in Croton-on-Hudson, NY. He was a proud graduate of Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, NY, where he was captain of the football and lacrosse teams and met his future wife, Renie. He began his military career at the 82nd Airborne Division after receiving his commission through the ROTC program at Georgetown University, where he was also captain of the football team his senior year. He continued to excel, graduating from the U.S. Army Ranger School, serving as a distinguished officer in the 82nd Airborne Division, earning his M.B.A. at the University of Maryland, earning a Bronze Star in Afghanistan, serving as a Battalion Commander at the Warrior Training Center at Ft. Benning, Georgia, attending the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and ultimately finishing his career as a faculty member at the National War College at Ft. McNair, Washington, D.C.

Beau was an extremely humble, hard working man who was quick to praise others and reluctant to accept credit. He was genuine, loyal and dedicated to doing what is right. He was a devout Christian whose legacy is one of faith, family and service. He loved to spend his free time with his wife and four children, coaching his children’s sports teams, helping them with Scouts and teaching Sunday School with Renie. His idea of the perfect weekend was watching College Game Day, exercising with Renie, watching college football or a movie with his children, eating pizza for dinner and attending church with his family.

Beau loved the Lord and is reunited with his son, Christian, who predeceased him. He is survived by his loving wife of almost 26 years, Lorena “Renie” Riely, his three adoring sons, Connor, Jack and Luke and his beautiful daughter, Meg, who is so much like him; his loving parents, Edmund and Patricia Riely; his brother, Jim, sister-in-law Melissa and their children, Declan, Kieran and Cora; his brother, Dan, sister-in-law Kelly and their children, Daniel Jr., Nicholas and Brendan; his sister Dorothy, brother-in-law, Evan, and their daughter, Maryn; his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Robert and Janis Polastre; his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Robert and Carol Sarubbi; his sister-in-law, Andrea Sarubbi and her husband, Luke Kirby; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who were special to him.

Beau’s family thanks the medical staff at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, MD who provided Beau with determined, compassionate and leading medical care for the past ten years. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the National Brain Tumor Society or your local food pantry, both of which are causes that are dear to Beau’s heart.

A viewing will be held for Beau on Thursday, May 11, 2023 from 5:00PM-8:00PM at Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home (9902 Braddock Road, Fairfax, Virginia 22032). Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Friday, May 12, 2023 at 11:00AM at St. Mary of Sorrows Catholic Church (5222 Sideburn Road, Fairfax, Virginia, 22032). Beau's burial will take place at Arlington National Cemetery at a later date, to be determined.

Nashville officials say they will release shooter Audrey Hale’s manifesto, then quickly back down-- The release of Covenant School shooter Audrey Hale’s manifesto has been delayed yet again, as Metro Nashville Police Department officials claim their attorneys told them to hold off amid a pair of lawsuits.

The decision came just days after the MNPD and Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee said the materials would soon see the light of day.

Police cited their attorney’s advice and blamed recent litigation for the change, bemusing the lawyer behind one of the two lawsuits filed demanding the information be released. Nashville police hold release of Audrey Hale manifesto (nypost.com)
