Annual Old Guard Luncheopn 2024
Our concluding event of the Old Guard annual season for 2023-2024 witnessed a capacity gathering of some 120 members and guests gathered at this venerable and refurbished first rate country club featuring delicious entrees consisting of salmon, chicken marsala and eggplant parmesan, followed by cheesecake and tiramisu. Our guest speaker, introduced by Paul Dean, was none other than our very own Dr. William A. MacDonnell, DDS, speaking on the topic of Horace Wells, Connecticut’s Greatest Humanitarian, and a seminal figure in pioneering the use of anesthesia in medicine. An informative and heartfelt presentation by Dr. MacDonnell, enjoyed and appreciated by all present.
