The Cilluffos received a proclamation from local Suffolk County Legislator Tom Climi, for all their years of serving the community.
"We are all sad to see you go, but we wish you well in your well-deserved retirement. One of the lines in this proclamation reads: [in addition to the great food], Equally remarkable is the warm personal greeting and the feeling of good old-fashioned 'Sicilian welcome' every time I stopped in," Climi wrote in a post.
