Feel Good Friday: Honoring Robert "Boots" Chouinard

 

On this Feel Good Friday, I’m grateful for the chance to celebrate local hero and WWII veteran Robert “Boots” Chouinard. 

Tuesday’s dedication of the new Robert “Boots” Chouinard Lifeguard Command Center at Salisbury Beach was an unforgettable tribute to his service and legacy.

At 101 years young, Boots continues to inspire us all.

Thank you to WBZ / CBS News Boston and Breana Pitts for recently sharing this special story with our community.
