It was an unconventional commemoration to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but the theme of love, perseverance and service shined throughout the YMCA of Greater Monmouth County’s first virtual event honoring the late civil rights leader.
For 32 years, the Y has brought together community leaders, students and residents from across Monmouth County to remember King at the annual memorial service. This year, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, guests joined a live-streamed celebration on Jan. 15 from their homes and offices, according to a press release from the YMCA.

A transient with a colorful criminal history was arrested twice within ten hours for separate incidents on Saturday.
Online records show 52-year-old Gary Leon Duffel II was booked into the Johnson County Jail just before 7:45 Saturday morning for a 3
rd Degree Criminal Mischief charge after an incident at Mercy Hospital. He was released just before 10:15am. No other details about the incident have been released.
Duffel was booked into the jail again at 5:22pm, this time on charges of Public Intoxication and Trespassing after a woman claimed Duffel tried to get into her Hudson Avenue residence.
Duffel has a lengthy and colorful criminal history. Last July he stole a $137 stone turtle statue from Phil’s Building Supplies on Hollywood Boulevard and dropped it in the nearby Suburban BP Amoco parking lot on Keokuk Street, causing it to break. Duffel pleaded guilty to a 5th Degree Theft charge and was fined $200.
