IN this era of instant everything at the touch of a button , it is indeed just so wonderful to see craftsmanship , and skill of handwork still exists . Current and modern ways to accomplish anything and everything often overshadows the skill that has been past down for gener4ations of skilled hand labor . Not everything can be accomplished by looking at an electronic screen that despite a lot of claims does not have all the answers . To restore something to the way it was originally takes deep thought and research. This is true for structures like houses, buildings, grist mills and for things mechanical like boats , airplanes and vehicles ( had to throw that in there as Howard and I both preserve and restore old cars!). My Sincerest Thanks to all the leaders of the Roslyn Landmark Society for their on going efforts and patience to do this for all the future generations to come. It is all of our heritage at its finest hour.
My grand-uncle was Dr. Louis S. Bardoly, who purchased the property and established the hospital. I would be grateful for similar photos of my grand uncle? Thank you very much.
How truly heartwarming it was to view thise photographs of the effort it has taken and continues to see this be preserved. My hearty congratulations to all involved , especially to my good buddy Howard Kroplick . He and I share a lot in common - same birth year, la deep passion for all kinds of history, obsession for cars with running boards. Bravo and thanks for the Roslyn Landmarks Society.
