GUILDERLAND CENTER — Barbara A. Newell, a school-bus driver who loved children, died peacefully at Albany Medical Center on Monday, July 20, 2020 surrounded by her loving sons. She was 74.
She was born Feb. 1, 1946 in Brooklyn, New York to the late John and Elizabeth Newell.
Crossgates Mall was locked down after reports of gunfire on Wednesday afternoon. No one was injured, police say, and, as of Wednesday evening, no suspects were in custody.
With a recent $10,000 investment from the Guilderland Industrial Development Agency, the Guilderland Chamber of Commerce is planning to launch a community investor program that will ultimately return funds to local small businesses that apply. In a separate initiative, the chamber plans to expand and diversify its board.
