Our resident Ottavio turns 99 this month! He is a proud World War 2 Veteran with two Purple Hearts. With all that is going on we are not able to give him the celebration that he deserves. This is where we hope that all of you will help us to share this message! We are asking for anyone interested to send a letter, draw a picture, or anything else creative to help make this a very special birthday! He is a true hero, and we want to show him just how much we appreciate him! You can address any letters, photos, or drawings to:
