In my big little neighborhood, Sparta, in the Village of Ossining, our historian, Joyce Sharrock Cole, discovered, researched and enriched the lives of the Brady family descendants with a story of resilience, freedom and community. By telling and retelling his story, we are protecting the hope that Captain Lewis Brady inspires in all of us. Please share in the celebration and watch the video.
