Personalities
:rby Annette Ling-:
Mr, George W, lacono, a native
of Brooklyn, N.Y„ originally,
is the Customer Relations Rep-resentative
at the Lynbrook Post
Office might be called No. 2 man
in charge there. He has brothers
and sisters all still residing in
South Brooklyn or other sections
of it. His brothers are J<An,
Vincent, and Salvatore and his
sisters are Mary, Angle, Annie,
Millie, Helen, and Eleanor and the
family recently lost their young-est
sister, Edith.
George attended public school
in Brooklyn and graduated from
Alexander Hamilton High School
there.
In World War n, which broke
out a few months close to his
high school graduation, he fought
with the United States Navy in the
Pacific Theatre of War, especi-ally
in the Philippines. He was
transported there aboard the U.S.
Destroyer Subic Bay. He was
h(xiorably discharged from his
mUitsu'y duties in 1946 and went
to work for Globe Lightios Prod-ucts.
He married the former, at-tractive
Margaret Corrado of
Brooklyn in 1957 and moved to
California, where he first start-ed
his career in the U.S. Post
Office.
He is very active with the Long
Island and greater New York
Postal Union and was President
in this area for eight years. He
started as a postal clerk and has
always been what the postmen call
an "inside man" and not a letter
carrier.
He worked in Pasadena, Cal-ifornia
for five years and traded
postal posts with the brother of
George w. laceno
Supt. of Public Works of Lyn-brook,
Floyd Wilcox, who wished
to move to California while he
had decided to live back closer
to his original home. He joined
the men at the Lynbrook office
in 1955 and has been there ever
since.
His hobbies are fishing and
photography in which he is de-veloping
c^te a great deal of
skill. He and his wife like to
vacation at Lake George or the
Northern Catskills. He is a
second generation and his father
came from Naples to the United
States many years ago.
He thoroughly enjoys his wife's
excellent cooking and baking and
his great favorites are her veal
cutlets and her apple pie.
One of the two most memor-able
events in his life to date
was the time he was aboard a
small destroyer, the S.S. Subic
Bay, when the ship was caught
in a truly terrifying tropical

Band Shell For Lynbrook
A Band Shell similar to the one pictured above has
become a goal of this year's Lynbrook U,S.A.Week
committee. Full public participation is invited and
the business community has been extremely gen-erous
in making contributions—so the pro|ect is
off to a flying start according to Bill Hahl, com-mittee
cha irman. The Band bhell will provide a
showplace for concerts, plays, forums and other
Village functions and it will be built at Greis
Park near the all-purpose area. The committee
is now seeking full community support for this
project and anyone interested in furthering the proj-ect
should make checks payable to "Lynbrook weej
Committee" and forward them to P.O. Box ^435,
Lynbrook, U.S,A. 11563.
