We are part of The Trust Project
Montrose’s Don Simons sits in his driveway playing the accordion every evening at 7 as a daily tribute to first-responders and healthcare workers amidst COVID-19.
Simons’ neighbor, Joe Duraes of Bookmark Design & Media public relations, created a short video clip about the musical salute.
The 80-year-old Simons started the nighttime routine in early March. The Northern Westchester Examiner is working on a longer feature about Simons’ efforts. YouTube link: https://youtu.be/RoUjR5MDxcE
