June 2015 Schedule

Posted in Schedule on May 27, 2015| Leave a Comment »

Hello, Family and friends,

Gino and I hope that you had an enjoyable holiday weekend with those you love. Memorial Day is not
a day of joy, but one of remembrance of the sacrifices that our men and women veterans gave to our generation, and generations to come, so that WE may enjoy our freedom. THANK YOU VETERANS, FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!!!

Gino and I are not ONLY “business partners” any longer. We are man and wife! After almost eight years as a couple, we have finally “tied the knot” on May 17, with a ceremony and champagne brunch at at the Drury Lane Conference Center in Oak Brook Terrace, IL.
All of our children, and their husbands participated, as well as three of our grandchildren-(in a flower-wagon) came down the aisle.
Our other two adorable grandchildren were junior bridesmaid/junior groomsman.

Our son-in-law, Justin, was our wonderful officiate. It was a joyful day with family, close friends, work friends, music friends, and neighbors in attendance. Our vocalists: Anna Maria Sims, one of Gino’s beautiful daughters sang “Wind Beneath My Wings” and “Evergreen.” My dear friend, Mary Frances’ husband, Gene St. Germain sang “I Cross My Heart”, and “Wonderful World.”

Instead of reciting our vows, Gino and I said it “in a song”: “Let it be me.” As we left the room, “So much In Love” played behind us.
Then, everyone enjoyed a sumptuous champagne brunch. (The best in the Chicagoland area, in our opinion!)

A huge thank you goes out to our florist, and personal friend of mine (from NW Airlines, over 40 yrs of friendship!) who outdid herself with the gorgeous floral creations for the bridesmaids, boutonnieres, centerpieces, head piece for Jr. bridesmaid, and my beautiful bouquet.
FLOWERS DUJOUR OF OAK BROOK TERRACE–NAOMI AND MARK FROEHLIG…Gino and I thank you So much!!!

Everyone, listed below are the private and public appearances,(in bold print) on our June, 2015 calendar. We hope that you will come and join us for an evening of fun! We thank you so much for your love and support. Please drive carefully, to and from events.

Hello Family and Friends!

We made it through December! Don’t ask me how! I’m pretty sure that we performed 40 Christmas shows, two in one day, sometimes. Now, we are heading into the dead of winter, and wishing everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We will not be traveling to the UP in Northern MI and WI. in January and February. Most of our shows will be in IL, and two in Del Ray Beach, Florida. It’s always a pleasure to perform for family and friends; even BETTER to do the shows in Florida in the winter!

Gino and I look so forward to seeing everyone in 2015! Do come and see/listen to the new shows we have created for you! Thanks again for your love and support. It means so much to us!

Our private and public events shall be listed below, with the public events in bold print.

May the new year, 2015 bring new and exciting opportunities to all of us. Don’t be afraid to reach out of your comfort zone and try something new to do and learn!

December 2014 Schedule

Posted in Schedule on November 28, 2014| Leave a Comment »

Hello Family and Friends! 
Welcome to December, 2014!  It is time to reflect upon what GOOD we’ve done during the year, what we SHOULD have done, and what we are RESOLVING to do in the new year 2015!
 
As far as we are concerned, we’ve spent a ton of money on car repairs, had some medical issues (but doing fine), bought a new washer and dryer (Yippee!!!), enjoyed meeting with so many of our seniors at the retirement communities we serve, as well as our valued restaurant accounts, but most of all we constantly watch our families blossom and grow.  Our children and grandchildren are our gold.  It is a joy to see how they change, week to week. They are our everything!
It is so important to count your blessings every day.  Thank you God, for all the blessings that you’ve bestowed on to us.
December will be a very busy month for us, as we are sure for you as well!  Gino and I are ALWAYS are grateful for your love and support, and coming to see us when you are able.
Our private and public events shall be listed below, with the public events in bold print. We will perform in both Illinois and the Upper Peninsula of MI., and Northern WI.
Our very best wishes to YOU and those you love, during this most blessed season of the year!  Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays to all!
Please drive carefully wherever you may go.  Someone is waiting for you.
Sincerely,
Jan and Gino
