NASHUA, N.H. — PRIME, the on-site restaurant at Sky Meadow Country Club, has reopened following the incident that shook the club months ago. “We are pleased to share that PRIME at Sky Meadow will officially reopen Yesterday and we look forward to welcoming you in,” said owner Rob Parsons in a statement on Facebook, as reported by NBC Boston.
On that September day, former country club employee Hunter Nadeau, 23, fatally shot Robert DeCesare, who was dining with his wife and daughter, and injured others. According to Boston 25 News, DeCesare’s family described him as “hard pressed to find a man more loved, not only by his family but by his many groups of friends from golf, poker, and pickleball.” Nadeau faces a second-degree murder charge. New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella praised the patrons who intervened, noting their “selfless acts of courage.”
As the restaurant opens its doors, there is a palpable mix of somber remembrance and a tentative step forward. In an outpouring of community support, Charlene DeCesare, Robert's wife, noted the incredible support they have received. "The people of Sky Meadow have been beyond amazing, and exactly why we moved here," she told Boston 25 News. Her gratitude extended to the professionalism and kindness shown by the Nashua PD and the Attorney General's office during an unimaginably difficult time.
As PRIME steakhouse reopens, the Parsons and Sky Meadow community looks forward while remembering the past. The reopening symbolizes resilience and honors those affected by the tragic events. Prosecutors continue their case against Nadeau, who remains in jail, as the community rebuilds the Sky Meadow Country Club.
