The aircraft departed from the Stewart Air National Guard Base before arriving in North Carolina, only to crash in Mississippi en route to California. In wake of the tragedy, a vigil was held Saturday by the Rock Tavern Unitarian Universalists Congregation Members of the community, public officials, grieving families and organizations such as the Red Cross and the Hudson Valley Honors Flight were present at the July 16 ceremony. “We come together this evening to remember, and to mourn,” said congregation member Terri Pahucki. “Shared sympathy and understanding binds us together.” Held in the liberal religious community sanctuary, the ceremony, although well-attended, maintained an intimate and unifying atmosphere. Reverend Chris J. Antal called upon 16 members of the congregation who felt so moved to participate in the ceremony. Those 16 were each given a white candle, lit in memory of one service member who passed. Between the sounds of a tibetan singing bowl, sniffles from the crowd and footsteps up to the platform, Antal called out the names of the service men, assigning each candle bearer to represent one of the deceased. Antal guided the congregation to call upon their chosen higher power for meditation and prayer. As Antal asked these powers to bring peace upon grieving families, the congregation replied with “hear our prayers.” “As a community, we have to come together to share our pain just as we share our healing,” Antal said. “Ritual allows people to come into a space where physical movement and routine helps them move through the grief process.” • APY=Annual Percentage Yield Rates effective 5/23/17.
