    FALLEN BROTHERS By KIERAN CROWLEY and DEVIN SMITH, New York Post
    With a metal cross and two cans of beer, friends yesterday memorialized two union members who were killed by an allegedly drug-addled hit-and-run driver while walking a picket line in Long Island.

    "These men were fighting for what they believed in, good wages, pride and dignity," carpenters union representative Anthony Macagnone said of David Kresofsky, 41, of Farmingdale and Gerald Geist, 60, of Copiague, who died in Tuesday's Bay Shore accident, which left six others injured.
