Celtic Park Apartments is onthe Sunnyside/Woodside borderbetween 48th and 50th Avenues run-ning from 42nd and 44th Streets.Though a large complex, there is astrong communal feel with neigh-bors knowing each other’s names,saying hello, taking in packagesand more. Sonia Hamid was oneof the original tenants at CelticPark, living here for over 40 years.She was a cornerstone in our com-munity and considered the “Mayorof Celtic Park” by all. Everyoneknew her, her children and ofcourse, her grandson Aaron.

It was Sonia who inspired theholiday lights and decorations thatadorn the small courtyard everyyear. With moving reindeer, treesand twinkling lights, the courtyardglows with holiday spirit.

Continuing her love of holi-days and children, four years ago,she started what has become a tra-dition at Celtic Park, a children’sHalloween party. Along withMiriam Fardey, our Property Man-ager, she obtained local businesssponsors such as T&C Deli on 48th

Avenue and RCN to provide treatsand pumpkins for the children topaint. With candy to eat and hersignature cupcakes to delight, theCeltic Halloween party has growneach year.

AN EYE ON GUTHRIE

A QUESTION AND ANSWER COLUMN

BY DEBRA S. GUTHRIE, M.D.

Hey Doc Guthrie,I am on glaucoma eye drops. The bottles seem half full and I run out of my drops

before the month is out. You have taught me how important compliance with mymedication is, but the pharmacy won’t refill my prescription before the 30 daylimit...What can I do?

Well, great news for New Yorkers! On October 20, 2011 Governor Cuomo signedinto law the NYS Ophthalmological Society’s-initiated bill requiring insurance com-panies to refill prescription eye drops prior to an insurance company 30-day supplylimit. The law is in effect as of October 20, 2011. Thanks to the efforts of Senator Salandand former Assemblyman Bing who sponsored this bill.

It is just so important not to forget to take those eye drops. The pressure fluctuationsin the eye should be minimized as much as possible. Swings in pressure can be very harmfulto the optic nerve, which translates to loss of vision. I educate my patients as to theimportance of compliance to preserve and help prevent future visual loss from glaucoma.

Letters To The EditorThe following letters are the opinions of its authorand not necessarily those of the Woodside Herald.

VERIZONDear Editor,

I just read the latestWoodside Herald and I thankJimmy Van Bramer for tak-ing a stand against Verizon’spoor repair service! I am aVerizon employee and a chiefshop steward of the Commu-nication Workers of America

(CWA), the union that repre-sents Verizon employees.Here is an excerpt of what myunion wrote about Verizon,“The New York State PublicService Commission ischarged by law to fight forNew York’s consumers.º But

in 2005, they stopped issuingfines when Verizon failed tomake repairs on time...By late2010, Verizon was fixing just1.2% of New Yorkers’phones within 24 hours.ºThat’s 78.8% lower than the80% standard that Verizon is– on paper – required to fol-low.” My union is asking thepublic to contact New YorkAttorney GeneralSchneiderman to investigateVerizon. Below is a link tocontact the AttorneyGeneral.http://action.cwa-

union.org/c/11/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2834Hecan also be contacted byphone at 1-800-771-7755

or by mail at Office of theAttorney GeneralTheCapitolAlbany, NY 12224-0341The community needsworking phone service,which is crucial in the eventof emergencies like black-outs or natural disasters!

Sincerely,Dominic Renda,

Woodside

Sunnyside Church Silently Goes Hollywoodby Rob MacKay

The Hunchback of NotreDame never sounded so good.To celebrate Halloween, theSunnyside Reformed Church pre-sented the 1923 silent movie onOct. 31. But while the movieflickered on a big screen at thealtar, local experimental fusiongroup Zaha played rhythms thatgrooved with the acting. Witheverything from wind to string topercussion instruments, Zaha,which is led by church musicdirector Evan Mazunik, created aunique atmosphere that kept thecrowd mystified.

A freak Nor’easter on October 29th with gusting winds left Queens residents with downed trees and wires,crushed cars and a messy start to the Halloween weekend. On Sunday morning, NY’ers woke to the remnantsof snow on their pumpkins and started their Halloween Monday with heavy frost on their cars.Winter doesn’t actually start until December 22nd, leading many to believe this is going to be a harsh winter.Photos Below by Sue Baldock
