On Saturday, April 6, 2019, firefighters, photographers, and volunteers all gathered at Maggiano’s Little Italy Restaurant in Woodland Hills not to work, but instead to be honored for their contributions and service to the Los Angeles Firemen’s Relief Association.
Our event coordinator was Juliet Brandolino, who once again went out of her way to make all in attendance feel welcomed and appreciated. Captain Frank Aguirre emceed the event. Frank was great, filling in for our president, Bob Steinbacher who regrettably had a last-minute emergency and was unable to attend. During the festivities, great conversation went hand-in-hand with the scrumptious food as certain individuals were singled out for their outstanding service to the Association.
Though it wasn’t possible to have everyone at the event who has contributed to our cause over the years, LAFRA still wants it to be known that without the personal sacrifice of all concerned, the day to day operations of the Relief Association would not be possible. For that we honor and most graciously thank all the volunteers for your selfless commitment to our organization.
