Gilmore said.

Entertainer Tony Pace, previously named as the event headliner, announced last week that he would not be able to participate.

“It is with profound sadness that circumstances have forced me to withdraw from participating in the March 10 Worcester County Veterans Memorial Foundation fundraiser,” he said. “It is my hope and prayer that you all continue to support their cause, despite my absence.” Gilmore said another act, which she described as a “top-notch entertainer from Atlantic City,” would fill in for Pace.

Doors open at 4:30 p.m. and a buffet dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m. The show will start at 7 p.m.
