HUNTINGTON STATION, NY — Reverend Mother Agnes Hiller officially has a street renamed after her in Huntington Station. East 10th Street & New York Avenue now has a plaque bearing "Dr. Agnes Hiller Way" as a memorial to the late Hiller.

Mother Hiller, as she came to be known, served the community throughout her life by taking in dozens of children and organizing various programs to address issues of hunger, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, and families in need.

"There is no one more deserving of such an honor than Dr. Agnes Hiller and the personal sacrifices and immeasurable contributions she made to the Huntington Station and greater community throughout her life, in service of God and the greater good," Supervisor Chad A. Lupinacci stated.
