It was a night full of love, family, and surprises. Everyone celebrated Melanie's mom's birthday (Happy Birthday! 🎂), SIRSY held a raffle of a gorgeous "Be Brave & Kind" mirror (with all of the proceeds going to Freedom Park!!), and our own Freedom Park Board President, Cathy Gatta, joined in on the fun playing a very emotional song with Melanie & Rich. Thank you Brad Parmerter for capturing this special moment.

Full show captured live in 1080p HD on August 19, 2026 - Sirsy live...
