Dry conditions impacting local farms food and flower crops

Days and days without rain are taking a toll on farm and flower crops. Right now, the farm's well at Irvington Spring Farms in Lynchburg is all dried up. Farm owner Kaye Moomaw says this is having a significant impact on the health of crops and she may have to take drastic measures to keep her flowers healthy. "For only the second time in 23 years I've been farming here. If it doesn't rain probably within the week-we will have to re-do our irrigation and drain a hose from our pond for as long as that can carry us. But it's pretty bad out here," Moomaw said. Moomaw said she and other farmers in the area are finding it harder to keep up with demand when their crops aren't getting enough natural rainfall. In the meantime, she says irrigation systems are working overtime. (WSET)

3 months after promotion, Madison police captain dies of cancer

Patrolman Chad Rybka (RybkaC@Rosenet.org) with an approximate head count as well as the number of patrol cars and motor units. Born and raised in Irvington and the proud son of an Irvington fireman, Cirella was appointed to the Madison Police Department on Feb. 13, 1989 after working for the Morris County Sheriff’s Office. A graduate of the Morris County Police Academy, Cirella’s first months as a police officer were spent conducting undercover narcotics investigations. He spent several years in the Detective Bureau before being promoted to sergeant in July 2002. He was promoted to detective sergeant in November 2006, lieutenant in January 2013 and captain in September. Cirella was said to be instrumental in reinstituting the Madison Police Department Motor Unit in 2000. "Capt. Cirella loved his job and made every attempt to return to work after being diagnosed with cancer," Dachisen wrote. "During his last hours, a nurse at Morristown Medical Center asked Joe if wanted anything; his response: 'I just want to go back to work.' We will remember Joe as a great cop, a mentor, a devoted father, husband and above all, a friend." A 1986 graduate of Parsippany Hills High School, Cirella had been enrolled at Fairleigh Dickinson University to complete his bachelor’s degree. He is survived by his wife Amy of 18 years and his three children: Caroline 15, Joey 13, and Nicholas, 8; his mother, Angela (Massotto), and his twin sister, Michelle McGlynn, and her husband, Kevin. Cirella was predeceased by his father, Joseph. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Madison PBA Local 92 (write “Captain Cirella” in the memo field).
