There should be more stories like this one but very happy for family.

I have seen so many businesses use the phrase ' Raise money for Sandy victims" that it's…Read More beginning to look like a cheap way to get advertising for their companies. Want to help Sandy Vixtim Families? Come down to Long Beach and walk up and down a few blocks in the west end, it will not take long to find a family that could use the money to help them rebuild At least you know where money would be going
Frank March 8, 2013 at 07:42 pm
Hopefully this will go far in helping victims of Sandy...
But I gotta ask: Where's OBAMA? Where's…Read More CUOMO?.
Last I checked, the South Shore was part of NY and the US. It still is in dire need of assistance... especially INFRASTRUCTURE.
I implore CUOMO to stop the Albany Hate and cease siphoning money out of the South Shore to help it recover from Sandy...
I implore OBAMA to push to bolster infrastructure protection of Long island. IT IS Part of the US coastline, just like those Gulf States.
Time for the higher ups to put up or shut up...

The wonderful crews from All Hands have cleaned out my house, gutted the first floor and promised to…Read More remediate the mold as soon as I get the heat going again. They are charming, funny, upbeat and professional. I LOVE THEM. Their unselfish work gives me hope, both personally and for the future of our world. When my family's problems are behind me, I hope I can make a difference in other people's lives, the way All Hands has in mine.

I'd like to publicly thank Howard Lutnik and his company Cantor Fitzgerald for his incredible act of…Read More kindness, generosity and help. As most of us remember, Cantor Fitzgerald lost over 700 people in the World Trade Center murders. Mr. Lutnik knows what loss means, and suffered so much pain, heartache and trauma, as did the multitudes of families of the victims of this horrendous tradgedy. I remember how generous and helpful he was to the families of the victims and through God's grace and love, and working together, Mr. Lutnik and Cantor Fitzgerald healed and rose up through the ashes. Mr. Lutnik did not forget the importance of helping those in need. Long Beach and the families in our community lost a tremendous amount during Hurrican Sandy. There have been many people in this country who have helped our city, and a huge thank you to all of those that have given so much to us.
On March 1, Mr. Lutnik gave a thousand dollars to each family that has a child in the four schools in the Long Beach Elementary school district. He had pledged to do this a couple of months ago, and made good on his promise. He even came down to say hello, and give his support to us. On behalf of all of us in Long Beach, I want to thank Mr.Lutnik and give him a big virtual hug and kiss. You are a blessing, and much more than just a big CEO of a successful company. You have a kind heart and soul, which in my book, is worth more than all the money and success in the world. You're a wonderful role model for my nine year old son. Bless you and your family and the wonderful people who work for you. You have done those who perished during 9/11 proud. Sending love and respect- Ivy Landsman-Slevin

Dear CAPSLOCK!
Lies and BS?
The Koffs never lied to anyone. If things didn't go the way you expected…Read More then that that's simply too bad. What lies are you talking about? The ones that people made up and spread as rumors because they are clueless? Did you ever ask Barry or Rob to clarify anything? Selling the store before the storm? REALLY? How would you know? Did you ever ask? Even if they were, so friggin what? It's their right! Were you worried you wouldn't be able to keep your menial job? Maybe you should have been been worrying about that anyway.
The Koff family treated their loyal employees as family and I KNOW just how devastated they really are. How do I know? I asked. I was at that store several times store while they had to deal with the devastation and tried to rebuild. WHERE WERE YOU?
Here's an idea: why don't YOU open a business, then you can run it the way you see fit. But I bet you don't have the brains or balls to do so.
Instead of hiding behind rumors and assumptions why don't you gather facts.
You might find out the truth isn't as devious as you think.
My heart bleeds for the employees of C-town and the Koff family. I know what they are really going through, do you? Have you ever called either brother and offered any assistance? No, you just expect them to rescue YOUR sorry ass!
You put in your post "if you want the truth...." You wouldn't know the truth if it bit you in the ass. All you know is the lies and rumors you helped create.
Good luck to you.
