Operation Freedom Paws, the nationally-renowned Gilroy organization that matches service dogs to US war veterans as well as special needs clients, has snatched up a competitive grant from the local philanthropic Gilroy Foundation.

More than 50 Operation Freedoms Paws supporters and friends of Gilroy's own Mary Cortani were glued to four television screens upstairs at Station 55 Bar & Grill Sunday night to watch CNN's “Top 10 Heroes Tribute Show,” where the winner of CNN's 2012 “Hero of the Year” would be revealed during the finale of a live broadcast streamed from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.

Gilroy dog trainer Mary Cortani was surrounded by good company – both human and canine – when she learned of some marvelous news Thursday morning while having breakfast at Station 55 restaurant in downtown Gilroy.

Recall the worst dream you’ve ever had.
