Rose L. Nabel, 94, of Southampton, New York, passed away at Bayshore Medical Center on July 25, 2025. Rose was a summer resident of North Sea since 1954, she always called it home. As a young woman, Rose realized that a Brooklyn apartment was no place for kids to spend during the summer months. Rose and her husband Oscar, in their younger years, saved every nickel and dime they had and bought a property in North Sea. The land back then was only $500 for a 50 by 100, which was perfect for them. Throughout the early years, Rose and Oscar spent hammer in hand and they built their love.

Rose’s favorite thing was to go clamming, get scungilli “conch” and go crabbing. With these gifts from the sea, she would cook up the most delicious sauces and salads; she would freeze some and cook up the traditional Seven Fishes for Christmas Eve. Even at 94, she renewed her shellfish license just weeks ago. Rose also enjoyed spending time on the beach with family and good friends. At night she would drink coffee with everyone, build a fire and talk the night away while the children would run free and play games.

Rose is predeceased by her parents, Nicola and Maria (Corribolo) Stoppelli, her beloved husband of 56 years, Oscar Robert Nabel and her sister Lydia Merone. She is survived by her children, Nicholas Nabel and his wife Rita and Maryann Nabel-Pezza and her husband Larry. She is also survived by her grandchildren, Manda Hampton, Robert Nabel and his wife Neha, Andrew Pezza and Nicholas Nabel and his wife Ashley, her great-grandchildren, Emma Hampton, Alyana Hampton and Jasmine Nabel.

Family and friends visited on Wednesday July 30, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 8:00 PM and Thursday July 31, 2025, from 8:30 AM to 9:15 AM at Shore Point Funeral Home and Cremation Services Inc., 3269 State Highway 35 Hazlet, New Jersey 07730. A Mass of Christian Burial was offered on Thursday July 31, 2025, at 10:00 AM at the Church of Saint Ann, 311 Carr Ave Keansburg, New Jersey. Following mass, Rose was interred at Calverton National Cemetery in Calverton, New York. For more information, directions, or to send condolences to the family, please visit, www. shorepointfh.com.

The Senior Surge

People often speak wistfully about young people being the future of this country. They certainly are — but let’s take a moment to recognize that the next few decades are actually going to belong to senior citizens. Which makes a group like Seniors Taking Action, founded by Mary Mulvihill of North Haven and Judy Loeb of East Hampton six years ago, even more impactful. Their small gathering of seniors is growing, in size and stature — it now has 1,400 members — and could well become an advocacy group that serves as a voice for those 65 and older.

Estuaries Are a Bargain

Whichever side of the political aisle you sit on, there’s a reality in play in 2025: Government spending is going to be on the chopping block, and only the most compelling arguments are going to save individual investments. Why, then, does federal spending on estuaries seem so precarious? The argument is rock solid, the benefits are clear and demonstrable, and it seems unlikely that the dollars going to places like the Peconic Estuary are raising ire among voters. If this funding is at risk, nothing is sacred. U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand was in Riverhead last week pledging to fight proposed ... by Editorial Board
