authorStaff Writer on Oct 27, 2025

Alice Guldi Martin of Southampton died peacefully in her North Sea home on October 26. She was 96.

She was born on September 12, 1929, in Southampton to Bertha and Phillip Guldi. She was a lifelong resident of Southampton, graduating from Southampton High School in 1949. She married her husband, Cyril Martin Jr., when he returned from serving in the U.S. Army in Germany during World War II. Together they raised two children, Terry Stubelek and Brenda Miller.

She had a passion for sewing, antiquing, gardening, caring for her dogs and home in Fish Cove. She read many books on the history of Southampton and enjoyed sharing stories about her years growing up in North Sea.

Her greatest joy was spending time with her grandsons on the many trips they took together. Her great-grandsons will remember her home as a place where they learned to swim in her backyard. She has left her family with many memories.

She began her career as a secretary at Guldi’s Electric Shop, and later was employed by the New York Telephone Company as a receptionist until she retired.

She is survived by her daughter, Terry Stubelek; daughter Brenda and her husband Richard Miller; grandson Michael and his wife Cassie Stubelek; grandson Bradley and his wife Janet Miller; great-grandchildren William and Ethan Miller and Ryan Stubelek.

A private graveside service will be held.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the North Sea Maritime Center, PO Box 2813, Southampton, NY 11969 (northseamaritimecenter.org) would be appreciated by the family.

Voters have an important decision to make in local elections this year in the Town of Southampton. As the co-chair of the Suffolk County Working Families Party, I am proud to have several excellent candidates on our ballot line, including Sara Topping and Jimmy Mack for Town Trustee. However, two of our endorsed candidates, Mark A. Bernardo, who is running for town clerk, and Tom Neely, who is running for Town Council, are not on our ballot line. That’s because a group of individuals petitioned themselves onto the ballot, forced a primary and, unfortunately, won the primary. None of them ... by Staff Writer

VIEWPOINT: Carbon Prayer

By Ella Gatfield Under exceptionally good viewing conditions, if a person has 20/20 vision, they can see the Triangulum Galaxy. At around 3 million light-years away, it is thought to be one of the farthest objects visible from Earth by the human eye. If I look to the horizon from land or water, with an unobstructed view, I can see only a few miles into the distance. Bound by this irregularly shaped ellipsoid, everything past the horizon line curves out of view. Wishful, I look to the night sky, then I sigh — releasing atoms of carbon into the world. ... by Ella Gatfield

Total Competence

Professional. Competent. Cross-endorsed. Bipartisan. Spectacular. Knowledgeable. Outstanding. Efficient. Integrity. Thoughtful. Throughout this election cycle, these words have been expressed by many Southampton Town voters describing Sundy Schermeyer, current Southampton Town clerk. We completely agree. As lifelong registered Democrats and former longtime Southampton Town Democratic Committee members, honorably representing our home election district, we strongly support Sundy Schermeyer to be reelected as Southampton Town clerk. She has held this position, showing true professionalism, outstanding knowledge and total competence. For many years, the Southampton Town Democratic Party cross-endorsed Sundy, without any hesitation, and so, we say, without any hesitation, Sundy has and ... by Staff Writer

The Art of Being Free

We are in the midst of a very important election in our communities, and I want to encourage you to take advantage of your responsibility as a citizen and vote in this election, and future ones. This newspaper, which we are fortunate to have to support our democracy, sponsored a debate among three candidates for Southampton Town Council running for the major parties [“VIDEO: Express News Group Hosts Virtual Southampton Town Debate,” 27east.com, October 16]. They are two incumbents: Rick Martel and Cynthia McNamara, both on both the Republican and Conservative tickets; and Tom Neely, on the Democratic ticket. I ... by Staff Writer

Vote Neely

With growing national and local attention to noise and physical pollution produced by gas-powered leaf and grass blowers, I watched the debate between the three Southampton Town Council candidates [“VIDEO: Express News Group Hosts Virtual Southampton Town Debate,” 27east.com, October 16]. Only Tom Neely seemed at all interested in this important quality-of-life issue. The other two felt there was no use, even in continuing with Southampton’s existing restrictive laws. Tom Neely gets my vote. Mike and Claire Piliero Hampton Bays by Staff Writer

What If?

What if we had a public/private partnership in the development of the new Stony Brook Southampton Hospital proposed for completion in 2030? There has been discussion and planning for the development of a new “state-of-the-art” hospital on the campus of Stony Brook Southampton for several years. Recent statements are proposing that it will be completed by 2030. What if, rather than a state-of-the-art hospital, the Hamptons had a world-class medical and trauma center? The Hamptons has long been an attraction for people from all over the world. We are being given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do something truly extraordinary. A ... by Staff Writer
