Buena
Vista Township recently suffered a major lose on the passing of Former Mayor Sam
Brunozzi. Sam served our community
in many ways and now the Township Committee and Special Events Committee will be
paying special recognition on Sunday, July 1, 2001.
As
part of our 13th annual Independence Day Festival, the main driveway
at the Michael Debbi Park will be renamed “Sam
Brunozzi Way”. This will be
done at the end of our 5:00 p.m. program at the day long celebration on July 1st.
The
Brunozzi family has donated a Victorian style street lamp, which will be placed
at the entrance of the park across from the Michael Debbi recreational park
sign. The street lamp will feature
a sign and a cutout of the famous cowboy hat that symbolizes Sam and his
business, Brunozzi Trucking. Our
Public Works Director, Joan Dickerson is working on a special landscaped project
at the park entrance, which will feature a park bench, concrete pad and
shrubbery to enhance the new street lamp. The
lamp will be lighted and serve as another attraction as well as a Memorial to
our main township park in Richland.
Please
mark your calendars to join us for this very special dedication!
