Library Director and "Commanding Officer" Susan Dove Lempke again welcomed the guests of honor and introduced Eagle Scout Dan Tagliere who had refinished the memorial benches in the veterans walkway in time for the breakfast. After Mrs. Lempke announced the donation of $500 to Honor Flight Chicago by the Friends of the Library, she asked Dan to lead the Pledge of Allegiance. After breakfast, the Legacy Girls as the Andrews Sisters again delighted the audience of 83 patrons winding up with "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" as they began "He was a famous trumpet man from out Chicago way."
