In an event that turned out to be partly a tribute to Mario Buonpane, the late longtime chairman of the town’s Veterans Advisory Board, who died in September, more than a hundred people gathered Sunday to celebrate the service of the nation’s veterans at Huntington Town Hall’s Veterans Memorial Plaza.

Huntington Town Hall will be hosting its annual Veterans Day wreath ceremony, on Sunday, honoring the anniversaries of the various branches of the United States Armed Forces.
