Catdaddy's Retirement Party A Big Success
In addition to his efforts with the raffle, Nasello expressed gratitude for the business and community support during Catdaddy’s Retirement Party, which he described as one of the most successful events of his career at Riverbender.com. The event featured interviews with many area dignitaries, which were subsequently featured in stories on Riverbender.com.
Nasello extended his thanks to the sponsors who contributed to the success of the retirement party, including Fast Eddies, Solera Wine Bar, Loading Dock, Bakers and Hale, Ropers, Bossanova, Macs, and the soon-to-be new owners Ryan Gentlin, Angela, and Miles Lynch. He also acknowledged Dan Herbert for volunteering as a producer for the show on the day of the event.
“I am grateful for the community support,” Nasello said. “The interviews were priceless.”
