Dear Neighbor,
 
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you enjoy time with loved ones and give thanks to the people most important to you. I hope you have a safe and fun filled day of gratitude!

Please see below for more information on a free Christmas concert, a constituent coffee hour, and more!

Wreaths Across America at Assumption Cemetery 

Wreaths Across America will be at Assumption Greens Farms Cemetery on December 14. This event is being held to remember and honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud.

There are several ways you can help. Click here if you would like to send a donation - $5 of every $17 is paid back to VFW Post 399 with that link.. That link also allows you to participate in the wreath laying ceremony. Make sure to click the “Volunteer” button next to the cemetery name a little further down.

I hope to to see you at this incredibly important event. The ceremony and wreath placement will begin at 11:30 am. 

Free Christmas Concert
On December 7, the Norwalk Community Chorale will hold its 63rd annual Christmas concert. It will be held at the Norwalk Concert Hall. Please see the flyer below for more information.
Constituent Coffee Hour 
Do you have a question about the legislative process? Are you curious about the bills that will be a priority in the upcoming session? Do you have a suggestion on how we can make our community even stronger? If so, I invite you to join me for my constituent coffee hour. It will be held on December 6 at the Wave Hill Bakery Cafe on Westport Ave. in Norwalk from 11:30 am – 12:30 pm. Hope to see you there! 
November is National Family Caregivers Month 
November is National Family Caregivers Month - a time to honor and support the caregivers who give so much to our families and communities. I'm sharing local resources to help lighten the load, from mental health support to financial assistance programs. Let’s ensure our caregivers get the care they need, too!
