PARSIPPANY — A Parsippany Democratic Fundraiser Concert was held on Sunday, August 2 at the Livingston‐Benedict House on Old Parsippany Road.
Grover Kemble, Tim Metz, Frank Elmo and Teddy Comora performed some jazz and blues during the afternoon fundraiser. “The entire experience was awesome,” said attendee Joanne Rich.
Some of the summer time menu items included mini-mufalettas, mini-shrimp po’boys, pimento cheese sandwiches and fruit skewers. After the music, they served freshly fried beignets, (and I have to say delicious too), prepared by Roberta Bramhall
The event was hosted by Bob and Julia Dutton Peterson.
