Councilman Loguercio said, “During this holiday season it is important that we remember those who have given so much to their country and community. These folks risked their lives with their service, so that we may enjoy the freedoms that sometimes are taken for granted. As a Gold Star family member, I am personally grateful for all that they have sacrificed to protect our country.”
