Reggae for Robert VI, billed as “a night to donate, dine and dance for the benefit of autism awareness and support,” was staged Saturday night, August 6, at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish Center in Pittston.
The event is a major fund raiser for The Earthly Angels Autism Fund, founded by Ron and Brenda D’Eliseo in honor of their son Robert.
Brandon Lizza served as master of ceremonies; Anita Lizza, Brandon’s mother, Ron D’Eliseo, and Meg Lukaszewski and Pam Pall of Step-By-Step, all offered remarks; Rev. Paul McDonnell, OSJ, asked the invocation, and the band “Sweet Pepper and the Long Hots,” led by Charlie Infantino, provided music for dancing.
