GUILDERLAND — Agnes Theresa Graffeo (née Marotta), a loving wife and mother, died peacefully at home on Saturday, March 19, 2016, after spending an evening celebrating her birthday with her family. She was 88.

“The love and care of her husband and family was the focus of her life,” her family wrote in a tribute.

The preservation movement started with saving Mount Vernon and has its roots in what is typically called 'white man's history,' said Susan Herlands Holland of the Historic Albany Foundation.

Margit S. Cook’s “most joyous years,” her family wrote, “were spent raising her children and being with her family.”

ALTAMONT — Village Justice James R. Greene and Village Trustee Nicholas Fahrenkopf were both elected on March 15, in a special election, to the posts they had held after being appointed to replace officials who had resigned.

GUILDERLAND — Jeffrey Mark Cascini, 40, of 1026 O’Brien Ave., Schenectady, was arrested on Mar. 11 by Guilderland Police for attempted burglary and felony DWI, driving while impaired by drugs or alcohol.  

Cited for violations in the past, the Guilderland Center nursing home is under new ownership, and administrators are showing off improvements.

According to the Albany County assessment rolls, the house, which stands on 1.09 acres, had a full market value of $190,795.

Most customers shopping at the Stewart's at Gipp Road and Western Avenue in Guilderland on Tuesday night were taken aback.
