HOLTSVILLE, NY — Holtsville centenarian Robert Scollon celebrated his birthday on Jan. 4 with a special visit from State Sen. Dean Murray.

Scollon, a World War II veteran, worked hard until his retirement, and remained deeply devoted to his family, while "faithfully" serving as an usher at his church until he was 96, according to Murray.

"He is beloved throughout the community, an outstanding citizen, and it was such a privilege to honor his remarkable life and legacy on this milestone birthday," Murray said.
