PROFESSIONALS:
The extended Tony Mart musical family suffered
tremendous, tragic losses of our own South Jersey Rock ‘n Roll icon,
Bob Campanell, and the immensely beloved "Ernie T" Trionfo in 2019;
but somehow, together, we overcame the difficulties and had a very
good year. So it is time to celebrate and give thanks! It is time to
look forward to a great New Year in 2020.
