The John F. Cryan Association’s 65th Annual Social was packed—despite the freezing temps—and filled with incredible energy, community, and Irish pride.

We were honored to recognize Gabby Sully and Ed Donnelly, and to present the Spirit Award to Brian Kelly. A wonderful evening celebrating Irish heritage, service, and the community that keeps this tradition going strong! Thank you to all who attended and continue to support ☘️🇮🇪💚
