Local Author and Restauranteur Visits School

The first graders of Sunrise Estates Elementary School enjoyed a very special visitor - local author and restauranteur Mr. Rizzi DeFabo.  Mr. DeFabo, whose family owns and operates Rizzo’s Malabar Inn, read his children's book “Rizzi & Nonna and the Wedding Cookies.”  He shared stories about his book writing process and his beloved grandmother.  He also demonstrated how to make pasta.
