William “Bill” Gould of Suffern, passed away on Thursday, March 14th, 2019 surrounded by his loving wife Jean and their four children, Kenneth, Robert, Richard, and Carol.
During his high school years Bill met his wife, Jean, during a school break; the beginning of a loving relationship of over 65 years. In 1950, Bill continued his studies at Yale University, pursuing his love of theatre with his involvement in Yale Drama while excelling at his studies in Mechanical Engineering. He graduated in 1954 and was inducted into the the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society. After his graduation from Yale, Bill and Jean were married on June 17, 1954 and moved to Cambridge, MA where Bill continued his studies at the Harvard Business School.In 1962, he began working with his father at Magnetic Analysis Corporation (MAC) and became the President and CEO upon the untimely death of his father in 1964. He would eventually step down as President and CEO in 2007, but continued to be involved on a regular basis as Chairman of the Board of Directors until his death.
Bill and Jean have served as Ramapo Republican Committee members for more than 50 years. They have been campaign managers and advisors to dozens of candidates, including State Senator Eugene Levy, Rockland County Executive Scott Vanderhoef, Rockland District Attorney Michael Bongiorno, and many local races. Bill supported many candidates with his advice and guidance on local and county-wide issues. Besides politics, he was a member of the Ramapo Town Planning Board, and the Board of Governors of the Tuxedo Club, where he was Chairman for several years in the mid 1980’s.
“Bill’s dedication and contribution to the Rockland County Republican Committee will always be remembered.” said Rockland County Republican Party Chairman Lawrence Garvey.
“William “Bill” Gould will be sorely missed by the Ramapo Republican Committee. Bill was a tremendous asset and source of knowledge. His commitment to the Town of Ramapo and the Republican Party never wavered. The committee thanks Bill for all his service over the years.” said Marino Fontana, Chairman Ramapo Republican Committee

NEW CITY, NY – Town of Clarkstown Councilman Patrick Carroll announces his candidacy for New York State Assembly District 96, to replace Assemblyman Ken Zebrowki who recently announced that he wasn’t seeking re-election. Councilman Carroll currently represents Ward 4, which encompasses Bardonia, New City, Nanuet, Spring Valley and West Nyack. He lives in Bardonia with his wife Natalie and their four daughters: Madelyn, Lily, Paige and Hailey. He is a graduate of Northeastern University School of Law and Wesleyan University, a licensed attorney, and currently works as an Administrative Law Judge for New York State.
“After speaking with community leaders, I have decided to seek election to the New York State Assembly. Filling my good friend Ken Zebrowski’s shoes will be no easy task, as he has been an outstanding and effective advocate for Rockland families. I hope to build on Ken’s substantial achievements and will work to protect the suburban quality of life that exists in Haverstraw, Nyack and Clarkstown.” said Councilman Carroll.
Since his announcement, Carroll has received key endorsements from democratic leaders from retired Legislator Harriet Cornell and Legislator Beth Davidson.
“When you knock about 3,000 doors alongside someone, you get to know them pretty well—what they believe in, what they stand for, whom they fight for. While I am so grateful to Ken Zebrowski for his 17 years of admirable and effective service as our Assemblyman, I am thrilled to endorse my friend Clarkstown Councilman Patrick J. Carroll for AD-96. I stand ready to knock another 2-3,000 doors to secure your election, Pat—and I know no one will work harder to help Dems up and down the ticket in November!” said Legislator Beth Davidson.
