Family of local Vietnam Veteran to be honored at socially distant event

“Although COVID-19 has uprooted our daily lives, and we are limited by pandemic restrictions, it’s still important for our community to come together on Memorial Day to honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of this great nation, and our life, liberty, and security,” said Assemblyman Angelo Santabarbara (US ARMY Reserve 1990-1998). “Even during these difficult times, our local community can be together [remotely] to pause to show our gratitude and give these men and women the recognition they deserve.”
