Another Fair Haven dad, husband, neighbor and friend has passed away.
Longtime Fair Havenite and Korean War veteran Adolph S. “Rudy” Garcia, known to many as a loving husband and father, world traveler and kind friend, “passed gracefully and peacefully from this Earth” on Oct. 20, his family said. He was 88.
A man found dead in the roadway of Hurley Pond Road in Howell early Friday morning has been identified and his death ruled a homicide, Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni announced.
A new tradition in Fair Haven precedes a very old one on Saturday when the borough’s Halloween Egg Hunt (of all things) gets things literally rolling in Sportsman’s Field at 10:30 a.m.before the Halloween Parade at 11.
Egg hunts are typically called the “quickest” events in borough history, as kids gather behind a designated, cordoned-off line and are let loose with one signal to scramble all over the field and gather Halloween eggs filled with prizes. Yes, Halloween eggs. No Easter bunny involved.
Immediately following that, across the street at Knollwood School, the lineup for the parade begins. The parade follows the usual route down Hance Road, onto River and then on to the Fair Haven Firehouse grounds for treats, prizes and a little spooktacular (or something like that) fun.
A DWI checkpoint is set to run in Red Bank from Friday night through early Saturday morning, Monmouth County DWI Task Force Coordinator and Allenhurst Police Chief Michael Schneider announced.
In case you haven’t seen this one before and in honor of football season … a reprise …
Do we have a cheer for RFH football? Yes, football season has kicked into high gear at RFH, so let’s take a moment to tackle this handsome team of players of an unknown year as well as the issue of name and uniform style.
Is it all in a name or uniform? Certainly not. It’s all about the game and how it’s played, of course. But, there are some quirks worth taking the ball and running with for a bit. No harm, no fumble. Just fun.
An attempted armed burglary in Tinton Falls evolved into a shots fired incident when the intended victims confronted the burglars. One man was apprehended and arrested, but a second suspect fled to a Freehold Borough apartment, triggering a call for the Monmouth County Emergency Response Team, Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni announced on Wednesday.
With all the talk about the RFH Surf Team’s success, thoughts of the good ol’ days of surfing with the RFH cool guys prompts a thumbs up for those bygone years, just like in the photo that so many have seen before.
