Thank you Bobby Maida for sharing your Feast photos with us! Disappointed I couldn’t make the celebration this year, I’m happy to see that everyone had a fantastic time. My friends told me I missed a great one; your pictures prove it. To see more of Bobby’s wonderful photos visit https://bobbymaidasgigliopictures.shutterfly.com/
