For the 16th year, Toni Gilardi hosted the annual Toys for Tots drive at Gibson | Sotheby’s International Realty in the North End. It was a record year for the U.S. Marine toy collection as neighborhood residents and businesses joined by donating thousands of dollars in toys. To celebrate the occasion, Janet Gilardi did the cooking with more than a bit of help from Billy Tse and Frank DePasquale. Throughout the night, dozens of friends and neighbors gathered for the cause at 350 Commercial Street.
