I was invited to perform the national anthem and God Bless The U.S.A. at the annual Waterbury Memorial Veterans Dinner. Miss Nutmeg, Christina Sciongay joined me for God Bless The U.S.A. 
Here we are with Wendy D'Occhio (left). Her husband is one of the coordinators of the event.
While we were setting up, we took some great photos.
Here we are with one of the committee members and coordinator of the Waterbury Memorial Day Parade, Veteran John Sarlo.
Here we are having fun at the dinner table. 
With my cute hubby, David.
While they presented the last of the awards, Christina and I made our way up front to get ready to sing God Bless The U.S.A. to the Veterans that were honored that evening. We had a great evening and I got to see a lot of old friends and introduce Miss Nutmeg to a lot of new friends!
Here's Veteran Marine, Sam Beamon. Sam is also a past honoree.
I also introduced her to the Committee President, Col. John Chiarella. 
He's a regular jokester and had us all laughing, including my Father-In-Law, Dave!
We had the chance to say hello to old friends, the Honorable Mayor Michael Jarjura (Waterbury) and to the Honorable Mayor Thomas Dunn (Wolcott). 
Another lovely guest that evening was American Legion Auxiliary Past President, Elaine Gravelin. She is from Prospect and she was an absolute delight to meet! We had a wonderful time and can't wait for the parade on Sunday!
