Cranford St. Patrick's Day Parade

10/14/2026

☘️ We are proud to announce that Lori Talbot has been selected as Grand Marshal of the 2027 Cranford St. Patrick’s Day Parade! ☘️

To know Lori is to love her! For more than 30 years, she was a dedicated teacher in Cranford, making a lasting difference in the lives of her students and their families.

Since retiring, Lori has continued to put her heart into helping others and making the world a better place. Through her participation in Miles of Kindness, she works tirelessly to spread the word about the importance of blood donations and inspires others to give the gift of life.

Lori’s dedication to serving others shines through in her many roles. She volunteers as a NICU Baby Buddy at Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center and with the Salt and Light Ministry at St. Michael’s Church. Through her work as a job coach with the Union County Educational Services Commission, she also helps young adults with developmental disabilities build skills, gain confidence, and achieve greater independence.

Lori’s kindness, generosity, and commitment to others embody the community spirit our parade celebrates. We are honored to have her lead the way in 2027!

Please join us in congratulating Lori on this well-deserved honor! 💚☘️

☘️ Giving back to the community we love! ☘️

The Cranford St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee was proud to present checks to local charities and Cranford High School in support of the wonderful work they do.

Our parade brings people together to celebrate Irish heritage, and that community spirit carries on beyond parade day. Giving back to Cranford is an important part of our mission. Checks were presented to Cranford Family Care, Madd Ox Foundation , Family Promise and Cranford High School.

Thank you to our sponsors, volunteers, and everyone who supports the parade. Your generosity helps make these donations possible! 💚
