Karin Nilsen-Parry, affectionately known as “Nussa,” and formerly of Sag Harbor, died on January 25. She was 61.

Ms. Nilsen-Parry was born June 21, 1959 in Brooklyn. After graduating from Pierson High School, she married the love of her life, Scott Robert Parry.

Ms. Nilsen-Parry was a loving mother and wife who enjoyed cooking and spending time with her loved ones. Her recipes will be cherished and passed down for generations to come, her family said, notig that she was a woman who was full of laughter, heart, and character. The world will be a quieter and less vibrant place without her, they said.

She was predeceased by her husband Scott. Ms. Nilsen-Parry is survived by her two children, Scott K. Parry and his wife, Amanda of Medford, and Kimberly Parry of Sag Harbor; her grandson, Henry Parry; her brother, Karl Nilsen and his wife Jackie; her sister, Kristin Nilsen; and many nieces and nephews.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the American Liver Foundation (liverfoundation.org).

The Bus Test

Social media was abuzz last week with a report: An unmarked bus was dropping off adult men in the parking lot of the Macy’s shopping plaza in Hampton Bays. Speculation was rampant, and it largely followed a national narrative about an “invasion” of immigrants ending up in American communities. In fact, there’s little information on what the bus (or buses — there likely were others) was doing. It might have been seasonal workers arriving for the season, but it could have been something innocuous, like a private bus trip returning home. Police were called, but as one town official pointed ... 1 May 2024 by Editorial Board

Terrible Optics

Westhampton Beach Village officials and Police Chief Steven McManus need a lesson in optics. The revelation last week that a body camera video recorded during the investigation of an off-duty Village Police officer who rolled his truck during a single-car accident in November 2021 was not released to the public for close to a year, despite numerous requests from The Press that went unanswered for seven months, sends the wrong signal about the village’s commitment to keeping the public informed. It was only after a request from an attorney on behalf of The Press that a copy of the video ... by Editorial Board

A Costly Hire

Permitting public employees to collect a six-figure pension while simultaneously collecting a six-figure salary is one of the reasons why New York is such a high-tax state. Though the Village of Southampton took it a step further: It wasn’t enough for the new village administrator to receive a $165,000 salary on top of a $120,000 New York Police Department pension — the Village Board just gave Administrator Anthony Carter a $50,000 pay bump, retroactive to when he started in November, in lieu of receiving village health insurance and other benefits.
