Longtime Married Couples To Be Honored In West Haven

Written by Michael P. Walsh

WEST HAVEN, CT — Mayor Dorinda Borer will honor married couples of 50 years or more at the city’s annual Valentine’s Day party.

The event, a tradition in its 34th year, is set for noon Feb. 14 on the main floor of the Johnson Community Center at 201 Noble St.

The two-hour party is presented by the mayor’s office and the Department of Elderly Services and will include background music and lunch catered by Lorenzo’s Restaurant.

Borer will recognize those sweetheart Westies who have reached the half-century mark and beyond with a small gift.

The mayor will also recognize the oldest couple with a citation.

For reservations, call Elderly Services Director Alyssa Maddern at 203-937-3507 by Feb. 7.
