Township Offers Moment of Silence for Kenwood, Pinelli

Princeton Township Committee on Monday began its meeting with a moment of silence for fallen EMT Michael Kenwood and former Township Police Chief Anthony Pinelli.

“I would like to have a moment of silence to remember those public safety members and their contributions to our communies,” Township Mayor Chad Goerner said.

Kenwood, an EMT with the Princeton First Aid and Rescue Squad, died on Aug. 28 during an attempted water rescue on Rosedale Road during Hurricane Irene. He was 39 years old.

Pinelli served Princeton Township for more than 26 years and retired as Police Chief in 1987. He died on Sept. 10 at age 73.
