In memory of Trustee Geraldine McGann, the first woman to serve on the Island Park Village Board

July 15, 2025

The Village of Island Park is saddened to learn of the passing of former Trustee Geraldine McGann. Trustee McGann lovingly served this Village as the first woman trustee, Chairwoman of the Labor Day Games Committee, 75th Anniversary Committee, Masone Beach (Casino Beach) Swim Instructor, Deputy Commissioner of the Town of Hempstead Office of the Aging, and a dedicated and active parishioner of Sacred Heart Church. Gerry was a constant fixture in Island Park especially at Masone Beach and her service, passion and friendship for our Village will continue to inspire us all. Mayor McGinty joins with the Board of Trustees and the entire Island Park community in sending our deepest sympathy to Gerry’s children and her entire family.

Mayor McGinty has ordered all flags on Village property to be lowered to half-staff until Friday to pay tribute to Trustee McGann’s life.
