In honor of P.S. I Love You Day, a new mural now adorns the hall at Oquenock Elementary School to spread love and kindness every day. Daria Mirabella is a former Oquenock Elementary School student and Class of 2013 graduate. Mirabella, who is a full-time artist and founder of Mira Bella Designs, has always had a passion for art. After graduating college with a degree in business management, and receiving her certification in graphic design, she became her own boss and started working exclusively as an artist. Pictured are West Islip Union Free School District Superintendent of Schools Dr. Paul Romanelli, teacher Kristine Greene, Oquenock Elementary School Principal Amanda Harvey and Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources James Cameron. The John Thomas Gaffney Memorial Fund commissioned/paid for the mural.
