Waterloo- At the annual Celebrate Commemorate Ceremony, Senator Mike Nozzolio had the opportunity to meet Changhee Lee, senior Valedictorian at Waterloo High School and a trumpeter in the school band. Originally from South Korea, Changhee recently became a United States citizen. He played an amazing and heartfelt rendition of the National Anthem at the Waterloo Memorial Day service. Changhee will graduate in June and plans to attend the Eastman School of Music in the Fall.
