“We’ve sold 80 or 90 at least,” he said.
In addition, some people who remembered Alivia handed him donations even if they didn’t want to order a T-shirt.
“She would be happy,” said Moylan. “I think she’s smiling down on us.”
The shirts are selling for $15 each and all proceeds, which amount to $9 for each shirt, will go to the Guardians of Freedom Memorial.
They can be ordered at the Whitestown American Legion Post, 110 Main St., Whitesboro, but the cut-off date is Saturday, April 24, to ensure the T-shirts will be ready by the one-year anniversary of Alivia’s death. A balloon launch in her memory is planned for Sunday, May 23, at the Whitesboro Middle School, according to her father.

Officials are hoping the site of the former Beech-Nut baby food factory off New York State Thruway Exit 29 in Canajoharie will soon be home to another industry: cannabis production.
Three weeks after Governor Andrew Cuomo signed legislation legalizing adult-use recreational marijuana in New York, the Montgomery County legislature’s economic development and planning committee on Tuesday advanced a measure that if approved by the county legislature next week, would allow company E29 Labs to pursue a lease-purchase agreement for the site.
Ken Rose, the county’s director of business development, expects the legislature to pass the measure.
“And then within a couple of weeks that purchase and sale agreement with E29 would take place and they would be able to continue to get on site and continue to do their due diligence and get their architects and engineers on site,” said Rose.

SCHENECTADY In normal times, I’ll write on a huge variety of topics, which is fine. It’s one of the things that makes the job interesting.
But 2020 has been mostly about COVID-19. There was less business news for a business writer to write about while the economy was shut down, so instead I took the lead many days on the package of words and images that The Gazette news team presented on the crisis.
The word “COVID” appears in 419 of my archived stories so far. The actual total may be only 400, thanks to the occasional duplicate, but you get the idea.
