When Mary Connor of Katonah recognized that supermarket workers contributed as much time and effort during the Coronavirus as many first responders, she created a large greeting card for hand signatures to thank the team at the Bedford Hills Shop-Rite. She had passerbys sign while walking on Maple Avenue toward Cross River Reservoir, at the Katonah Gazebo and she went door-to-door to gather as many signatures as she could.
“I wanted to have something personal and meaningful as many families in the area, like mine, were raised with meals we prepared courtesy of weekly grocery shopping at this store,” said Connor. “I”™ve been a weekly customer for 35 years and I never, ever considered the behind-the-scenes effort that gets our groceries on the shelf.” Connor said.
