A graveside service for Renee Schilhab Bullock will be held at Cedar Lawn Cemetery on Cooper Lane in East Hampton on Saturday at 11:30 a.m. The Very Rev. Denis C. Brunelle of St. Luke's Episcopal Church in East Hampton will give remarks.

Yardley and Pino Funeral Home in East Hampton is handling the arrangements. Ms. Schilhab Bullock, a former journalist, landscape designer, musician, and documentary filmmaker, died of liver and peritoneal cancer at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C. on June 14. Formerly of Amagansett, she is survived by her husband, Tony Bullock, a former East Hampton Town Supervisor, and their children Monty and Alex.

The family has suggested memorial donations in her name to the Tregaron Conservancy in Washington, D.C., at tregaron.org. A full obituary will appear in a future issue.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
