10 Years Since Hurricane Sandy: Share Westfield Photos, Stories

WESTFIELD, NJ — Longtime Westfield residents surely cannot forget the devastating impact that Superstorm Sandy had on the community ten years ago.

The deadly hurricane that swept through coastal areas of New Jersey and New York left many without power and severe damage to their homes and businesses.

In an effort to compile photos and stories for the 10 year anniversary, Patch is asking Westfield readers to submit photos and memories. These memories can be recollection of surviving without power, the long lines at gas stations, a heroic rescue, the cancellation of Halloween, a remembrance of someone lost or how a business was impacted at the time of the storm.

How did the Westfield community come together and persevere in the aftermath of Sandy? How has the community changed since then?
