🌱 North Fork Daily: Saying Good-Bye To A Friend + Cannabis Sales

Happy Friday, North Fork! Our top story today focuses on a love story — and who doesn't love a good one? Harry and Louise Wilkinson met 38 years ago in Greenport, and their forever romance led to a wedding just three months after they met, on a front lawn in Mattituck. Harry passed away recently, and Louise told him that she will mark their 50th anniversary, the one wanted so badly to be here to celebrate, by a visit back to that Mattituck front lawn. She'll carry him with her in her heart.

Until next time. . .
