Operation: Home Ties "Faces of Remembrances"

Operation: Home Ties "Faces of Remembrances" will be displayed at Woburn City Hall Rotunda until Friday Nov. 13th.  Gina Johnson of Woburn pays tribute to all the men and women of Massachusetts who served in the military and gave their all-KIA's.  The portraits that Gina does are one of a kind and and are presented to the families as a gesture of support and healing. 

Gina and Peter Mamakos, owner of The Restaurant have joined forces to pay tribute to are fallen heroes making the restaurant home base for her volunteer mission called Operation:Home Ties.  Every Monday night 5:30-9 pm she sets up her easel devoting this time each week to draw these hometown heroes. 

Special thanks also goes to her brother Paul Roth for giving life to this project.   Senator Ken Donnelley co-hosted this exhibit with Senate President Therese Murray displaying a total of 115 portraits honoring our fallen heroes in the State House the week of June 10th.  They now have over 120 memory portraits.  It's a very moving display.

Come down and see Gina's dream and show support in honor of our soldiers and their families.
