A street outside of South Beach Houses in Staten Island was recently co-named Scherisce M. Lewis-Clinton Way in honor of the development’s longtime resident association president who passed away in 2022. On March 8, Ms. Lewis-Clinton’s family, friends, community members, and elected officials gathered at McClean and Norway Avenues to honor her life and work with a renaming ceremony.
Ms. Lewis-Clinton became president of the South Beach Houses Resident Association in 2002, holding the position until she passed away. She previously served on the board as a member since 1994. In addition to being the resident association president, Ms. Lewis-Clinton was the owner of Sherri’s Kitchen, a soul food restaurant in the St. George section of Staten Island.
Elected officials in attendance at the event included State Senator Jessica Scarcella-Spanton, City Council Member Kamillah M. Hanks, former State Senator Diane Savino, and representatives from Staten Island District Attorney Michael E. McMahon’s office.
