The city's director of veterans' services, Francis P. Senesi (right), announced that the city's fundraiser for the Memorial Day Parade raised $10,000 to help the city defray the cost of this year's parade. Senesi asked Frank Santangelo (left), the city's superintedent of buildings and grounds, to help him pick the winning ticket for a $50 gift certificate from the Target store at 180 Somerville Ave. Other prizes included a one-night 
stay at the Quintana Inn and a grill.
In addition to a performance by the Metropolitan New York U.S.O Troupe, sponsored by this paper, attendees enjoyed great food, drink and conversation at the affair held tonight at Assembly Square's Good Time Emporium.
There is a sad thing about this day, It will be raining all day long and the parade will not step off. The real sad thing about it will be that this administration will hold the fundraiser $$$$ and throw a party at Good Times.....
