Nathan Hale Celebrates 37th Anniversary

Providing quality, affordable, gracious senior living for Lynbrook's senior citizens since 1972, Nathan Hale Senior Housing recently celebrated its 37th Anniversary.

Located on Doxsey Place, the senior living community is named and founded in honor of the great American patriot Nathan Hale.  Hale, born June 6, 1755, was a soldier for the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War.  Considered America's first spy, he volunteered for an intelligence-gathering mission, but was captured by the British. He is best remembered for his speech before being hanged September 22, 1776 following the Battle of Long Island, in which he said, "I only regret that I have but one life to give my country."

(L to R) Former Lynbrook Mayor and retired Supreme Court Justice Francis X. Becker, Mayor Brian Curran, Mr. Robert G. Becker, and John Gordon joined with current residents of Nathan Hale to celebrate the community's 37th anniversary.
