For the second year in a row Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day, was commemorated virtually by the Holocaust Museum & Center for Tolerance in Rockland County.
During the annual Yom HaShoah Commemoration at the Rockland County Courthouse, local leaders in the legal community highlighted the importance of the justice system in our democracy, and why we must never forget the Holocaust.
Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the event was not going to be canceled under any circumstances, said attorney and longtime chair of the event, Paul Adler. We felt it was important, that just as the mass says never forget, never again, that we would never forget to remind those that it would never happen again, Adler said.

NEW CITY – Frances Pratt received the Rockland County executive s highest civilian award on Friday for her decades as Nyack NAACP president and a civil rights leader.
Pratt, wearing one of her trademark floppy hats, which earned her the moniker Pratt in the Hat, recently retired as Nyack NAACP branch leader. She had worked for years as a nurse and then as the first African American head nurse at Nyack Hospital s emergency room.
Pratt offered words of thanks in her signature style.
She thanked friend and brother the honorable Ed Day for this honor and told him that her mother s father was Irish so there may be more blood between us than one might think. While I don t have the documents to prove our kinship – our freckles speak volumes, Pratt said, drawing laughter during the short ceremony at the County Office Building.
She spoke of my daughter from another mother, Constance Frazier, a retired educator, and the Rockland Human Rights commissioner, as well as her grandson, Gerald Parker, and other friends and colleagues.
