John Specce, Dottie Simons and Rob Brusca, all familiar faces, local business owners, board members, as well as long time and esteemed residents of the community, will be honored that evening. There will also be a special tribute to the Center’s beloved Program Manager, Mary Frignani, who has devoted 30 years of her life to The Life Enrichment Center and is retiring this year.
