A
A
Well
today's
here
it's
been
a
it's
certainly
level
to
do
to
show
the
young
belong
support.
Thank
you
too
buddy,
but
he
has
been
unbelievable
in
this
community.
I've
had
the
pleasure
to
the
last
20
years
to
work
alongside
with
him
on
different
things,
and
he
just
never
says
no
and
then,
when
he
has
a
day
happen
to
my
baby,
will
be
somewhere
else,
try
to
help
them.
A
So
certainly
it
could
be
really
deserving
couldn't
to
this
man
and
it's
nice
to
see
that
he's
here
to
enjoy
the
day
to
enjoy
all
young
people
to
come
out
and
support
and
show
we
all
vote
for
him
on
I.
Just
want
to
thank
a
few
people.
I'm
gonna
try
to
do
this
and
not
forget
anyone,
but
the
first
one
I
have
to
think
my
god
is
amazing,
I've
only
known
to
help
ideas
and
he's
just
sensational.
He
represents
the
city
of
Boston.
A
He
will
prevent
each
and
every
one
of
us
every
day,
but,
more
importantly,
when
I
pick
up
the
phone
and
I
do
all
the
time
and
a
natural
favor
he's
the
owner
heartbeat
he's
there
for
all
of
us
in
East,
Boston
he's
will
for
every
project.
He
pays
attention
to
everything
that
goes
on
and
every
need
of
his
community
when
he
went
when
I
brush
met
him.
He
looked
me
straight
me
I
and
he
hit
me
I
need
to
support
number
one
and
by
god
he
worked
harder
than
any
person.
A
I
know
and
he
became
the
mayor
of
this
great
city
but,
more
importantly,
he
became
a
point
to
each
and
every
one
of
us
and
for
that
I
am
honored
to
say
he's.
My
dear
friend
and
I'd
like
to
say
thank
you
to
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Boston,
Marty
Walsh.
Thank
you,
sir,
and
then
it
goes
into
the
community
itself.
Will
we
have
elected
officials
such
as
council?
Shall
la
maquina
aiding
the
battle
enjoyable
clean,
my
babies
every
day,
one
thing
and
that's
to
be
a
friend.
A
A
A
The
answer
is
a
humble
man,
a
good
man,
a
man
who
would
do
anything
for
anyone,
a
man
who
is
loved
not
because
what
he
does,
but
who
he
is
a
man
who
made
East
Boston
a
place
where
young
people
can
grow
and
hopefully
take
his
place
someday.
We
brought
this
part.
We
brought
buddy
with
many
years
of
being
a
beacon
in
our
community,
listen
with
good
health
to
continue
his
work.
A
Thank
you
for
we're
going
to
have
them
a
couple
of
weather.
Obviously
the
mayor's
going
to
speak
here,
because
he
has
a
busy
schedule
and
representative
abello
has
committed
back
at
the
Statehouse.
Oh,
they
were
going
to
have
those
those
two
elected
officials
to
think
and
then
we're
going
to
go
back
to
the
aqua
to
remind
you
all
that
you're
invited
back
here
around
eleven-thirty
called
the
clock
to
enjoy
one
to
a
buddy
and
that
both
cell
and
dumb,
like
a
sock
Kozma
calls
for
it.
A
Didn't
I,
mean
cows
or
an
asic
to
come
over
to
say,
City
contra
la
Geneva,
judge
I
when
you
say
you're,
sorry,
I'm
never
going
back
to
the
air
club.
So
don't
forget
the
festivities
going
back
there,
but
I'd
like
to
introduce
right
now,
City
Council's
until
yet
representative,
even
in
the
doll
who
cannot
be
with
us
at
the
awkward
but
come
up,
he
clearly
had
any
presentation.
A
A
A
Not
like
the
column,
a
dead
friend
against
Boston
someone
who
immediately
want
to
make
this
happen
when
joe
ruggiero
reached
out
maiya
body
wash.
Thank
you
veterans
in
bed.
I
want
to
push
all
think
that
represented
a
for
always
greatly.
If
you
never
know
this,
you
gotta,
let
me
by
his
peers,
the
chairman
of
the
boss,
invalidation
of
potatoes.
So
what
I
congratulate
him
on
that?
A
A
clay
oven
for
a
guy,
rather
than
in
the
house
that
one,
a
great
honor
to
have
your
peers,
elect
you
to
lead
them
in
the
delegation
and
it's
an
important
job
is
important
role
because
his
own
know
it
be
fight,
freeze,
Boston,
but
also
fight
for
entire
city
when
it
comes
to
the
budget.
So
I
will
totally
thing
about
that.
Thank

I
also
want
to
want

involvement.
A
Somebody

raised
their
family
works
in
their
home
and
then
comes
back
to
back
the
community,
but
for
me
personally
being
a
payment
enough
for
14
years
ago
I
came
over
these

I
met
young
jojo.
Any
a
tradition
to
his
dad

for
mayor
of
Boston
I
didn't
know.
A
lot
of
people
need
gentle
enough
people
in
a
salary
they
put
the
shower
either
way.
I
knew
them
from
work
with

Statehouse,
I
became
a
weapon
at
City,
Hall
and
I.
A
Do

didn't,
have
a
base
of
support.
Wells

this
very
special
day
with
you.
This
is
in
order
that

The
soil
is
more
than
any
naming
of
any
building
or
any
school

Street
in
the
history
of
our
city.
This
is
a
square
I.
Can
guarantee
you
that
they
shall
be
kept

but
I
guarantee
it
will
be
a
lot
different,
I'm
comfortable
forward
where
we
replace
the
book
with
grants
and
other
things,
and
I
look
forward
to
doing
that.
Oh

come
