Focus on the Great Neck Peninsula: The irrepressible Edna Mashaal

For this week’s Focus, I recently sat with longtime Great Neck resident and business owner, Edna Mashaal. She, with the dancing hazel eyes and signature laugh.  Step inside, into the world of Edna Mashaal.

The name Mashaal means “torch,” “flame,” or “firebrand” in Arabic. It symbolizes light, radiance, and the ability to illuminate darkness. Quite apropos, given the Hanukkah and holiday season upon us.  Be the light!
