It really was “An Affair to Remember” last Monday at Lynbrook Restorative Therapy and Nursing when the facility partnered with Village Taxi to host a luncheon with music, flowers, dancing, candy. It was a full house! Jerry Ross and Arnie Gruber played old standards as residents had a choice of breakfast or lunch, along with refreshments. Village Taxi provided free transportation for Lynbrook and East Rockaway residents to and from the event that day.
