Residents enjoyed birthday cupcakes and punch, provided by the Wesley Heights Dining Services team, as well as dancing and entertainment by Larry and Doreen Crasilli.

Crosby Commons resident, Marion Prescott, also celebrated her 100th birthday this past February.

With the help of Activities Director, Mary Ann Milano, Prescott and her fellow residents recently donated the gifts to BH Care, a community health care provider serving the lower Naugatuck Valley, Greater New Haven, and Shoreline communities.
