2h agoMore than 100 people celebrated their new American
citizenship in Rockland County on Friday – but for one woman, it was
bittersweet.
Marlene Brown is an immigrant from Jamaica who lost her
older sister to cancer several days ago. She said her sister helped her
acclimate and survive when she first arrived to the area.
"She took me in when I came to Rockland County. She was
my ride-or-die,” said Brown.
The ceremony for the 110 new citizens from more than 30
countries was held at the Rockland County Fire Training Center.
