\"\"<\/a>Picture Tribute for Memorial Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cYou know that feeling when you are somewhere public and something whether a movie, or in my case a baby duck, or sometimes really random stuff leaves you choking back tears and planning for an escape from the room before someone sees you?\u00a0 Here at The Palazzo Las Vegas during the welcome reception for Wounded Warriors from San Antonio Medical Center (BAMC) there was none of that.\u00a0 We all came together as a community of supporters and together I’m sure we shed enough tears to supply all of the water falls at The Palazzo\/The Venetian with water to last AT Least the week. . .\u201d<\/p>\n
