Last Wednesday, in recognition of Memorial Day, the Burlington Disabled American Veterans 113 provided catered chicken parmesan meals from Capellini's in Tewksbury to 40 Bedford Green residents and staff.

The meal was to go or enjoy in the community room, which residents did in the 2nd picture (left to right): Eugene Fierman, Colby Miller, Steve Turner, and Richard Duffey.

The residents were very grateful for the meal and remembrance.
