Mayor Dorinda Borer and the West Haven Italian Heritage Committee will honor longtime West Haven Italian American Civic Association President Paul M. Frosolone as the city’s primo Italiano at the 27th annual Italian Heritage Celebration.
Frosolone, a long-standing member of the committee and one of its hardest-working volunteers, will receive the Italian American of the Year award during a ceremony outside City Hall at noon Oct. 9. The award is bestowed annually on an Italian resident or couple who exemplifies service in West Haven’s close-knit Italian community.
