The North Fork is mourning the loss of Sister Margaret Smyth, 83, who died in her sleep Monday at her Riverhead home. For more than two decades, Sr. Margaret ran the North Fork Spanish Apostolate, an organization that, among other things, provides religious services, food, clean water, advocacy and support to the local Latino community and farm workers in particular.
