SOUTHBURY, Conn. — For the past three years the Watermark at East Hill, a continuing care retirement community in Southbury has opened its doors to hold the Forever Together Luncheon. 

The event is open to the public and the staffers at Watermark say there's a reason the lunch is put on the day before Valentine's Day.
