Linden School No. 2 Tree Dedication
School No. 2 in Linden honored the memories of longtime crossing guards Mike and Maggie Smith with the dedication of a Linden tree planted outside the school on Arbor Day, April 30.
The ceremony remembering the beloved couple was attended by the Smiths’ son Scott and daughter Jennifer, who were moved by the gesture and talked about how much the School No. 2 family meant to their parents, who died in 2019 and 2020.
Also attending were Superintendent Dr. Marnie Hazelton, School No. 2 administrators, School No. 2 K-Kids students, members of the Linden Shade Tree Commission, members of the Linden Police Department, Mayor Derek Armstead, and Councilman Ralph Strano.
