Remember last year, Southie came together to wish Ottavio a Happy 100th? Well, he just turned 101 and a celebration was had!
A World War II Army Veteran, Ottavio Cerullo rang in his 101st birthday this past weekend, alongside his sister Yolanda (A Coast Guard vet who will be turning 100 this summer) and the residents and staff of Compass on the Bay in South Boston. Affectionately known as Ott, the Memory Support Assisted Living community celebrated with a giant cake along with well wishes from the community including members of the BPD, BFD, the Fitzgerald Post, local elected officials, friends and family!
Talk about good genes! Happy Birthday, Ottavio!
