Mayor Gary Christenson welcomed John and Rosalie Russo and their family to congratulate them on their 60th Wedding Anniversary. Longtime Malden residents John and Rosalie raised their family in Malden and are extremely proud of their three children — Christine, David and John — and their three grandchildren: Ryan, Gavin and Lennon. John and Rosalie enjoyed their years in the community; John spent many years coaching Pop Warner football, and Rosalie was president of women’s softball for four years. They were also well known for their famous afternoon, evening and late-night joyous Christmas Eve celebrations with friends and family. Mayor Christenson surprised them with a citation on behalf of the City of Malden in recognition of their milestone anniversary.
