(the fewest number of dogs to date) and 1 cat. Ginny's 89 year old Father (Charlie) joined the menagerie in Oct. 2011. It was O.L.C.H.S. advisor Marilyn Quinn who made a dance career possible for Ginny. While in a 4 year planning session it was Ms. Quinn who informed Ginny if she wanted to be a professional dancer she had to leave her local dance studio in Evergreen Park and travel into the city to train with professionals. Ginny's senior year, it was Ms. Quinn's recommendation for her to attend Barat College. Years later it was not unusual to find Ms. Quinn at one of Ginny's performances in the city. If you remember Ms. Quinn, you may recall she had sever physical limitations so it was extra special when she was spotted in the audience or standing near a back stage door after a performance. What a lady and how lucky were the students of O.L.C.H.S. to an advisor knowledgeable in the Arts like our Ms. Quinn. We need more Ms. Quinn's in the public schools today!

We Italians (and a few French) had a tremendous time at my sister Charlene's Memorial. She would have LOVED this gathering in her memory. Infact, she would have been over the moon. This place is a hoot and both chefs presen

Ballet Jazz Montreal's performance of DANCE ME,
 music of Leonard Cohen, was hands down one of the best productions I have ever experienced. The dancers were some of the strongest I have seen in my lifetime. Kudos to choreo
