HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE.
Closing at 4 today, and will re-open Monday 8am. So no calls, texts or emails till Monday as we I need this time to prepare for the annual “TOYS for KIDS Christmas Party” December 19th. Let’s all pitch in as always for this Community event, a one of a kind “CHRISTMAS BLOCK PARTY” exemplifying why Mamaroneck is nicknamed “the Friendly Village”.
VIDEO STATES WRONG DATE- IT'S DEC 19th 7PM
So many who have celebrated the Holiday Season at this party have said they felt a sense of Joy and Happiness bringing back memories of this time of year remembering it truly being the “Most Wonderful Time of The Year”, something we all have to remind ourselves of today as life has become more hectic. At our TOY for KIDS Christmas Party this year I’m honoring my devoted right hand best friend, office manager/medical assistant Mrs Nancy Fanelli “MS” who we all love and without whom I could not practice. She has been a Saint to us all in many ways, giving up practically all of her free time volunteering & going out of her way not only to help me keep my patients healthy but also supervising so many community outreach programs that she & I have done together for years (notably the volunteer time Nancy puts in on work that enhances the quality of life in our Community like St. Rita’s Free Medical Clinic and this Christmas Party.
And I also honor my other best friend who I miss so much, especially this time of year, Nat Picco the man, GOAT🙏❤️🙏 RIP, I miss you brother. Nat always, like his father before him and now his son, Nat Jr. have always freshly painted and decorated our building for all to enjoy every Christmas. TOYS for KIDS also honors Mrs Vicky Picco & the entire Picco family this year, all of whom are like family to me and for all of us, always doing much more at their own expense for all of us to enjoy especially during the Holiday season each year. All who live in the area have passed my building this time of year so magically light up by Nat Picco. As one of America’s Finest, our Policemen, pointed out to me one year, telling me to turn around as we were directing traffic “Look, Kevin., the building looks like one of the stores you see along 5th Avenue in Manhattan”. Well with Christmas music playing loudly and people walking past the building viewing twelve Santa’s waving from all windows upstairs and down, a forest of Christmas Trees all lit up behind them, the building all dressed up with wreaths and lights lit, my friend, Officer George, was right, it did and does look like a store that belongs along 5th Avenue at Christmas Time largely thanks to the Picco Family.
As we always felt in times past our Police and Firemen who risk their lives every day to keep us safe join us all at this celebration making all feel happy and safe at this “Community Holiday Christmas Street Party” ONE OF A KIND each year. So come all yee who want to experience something happy and joyful this tear, all joined together as one in the spirit of the holidays along with town workers, neighbors. our government workers, schools organizations and often some of our elected and appointed officials, showing all just why we call Mamaroneck, the FRIENDLY VILLAGE, now proudly showing off one of the most beautiful waterfronts you’ve ever seen along the entire East Coast since reconstruction took place this year opening up what I’m sure will put Mamaroneck on the map as one of the most beautiful places to visit and so close
to Manhattan, one of the most beautiful places to live. For opening up that spectacular view as you arrive at the Harbor I’ve decided next year if all agree to return to doing THE TOYS FOR KIDS CHRISTMAS PARTY ON A SATURDAY DURING THE DAYTIME FOR ALL TO ENJOY SEEING THIS GORGEOUS TOWN IN DAYLIGHT. And many more children and families in need are able to make it when I hold this event during the daytime on a weekend rather than during the week. Nay or Yay? Anyway
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO You ALL and hope to see you on the 19th.
Dr. M
(I love all you guys and thank all of you who have helped me and supported me in these activities through the years. You all deserve a pat on the back!)
