October 25, 2008

To: Mom and Dad
Happy 52nd Wedding Anniversary Guys! I was going to buy you both a really expensive present, but you've always told me that all you ever wanted from me was to know that I was happy - so I used the money to buy tickets to next weeks show at the Fitzgerald for myself and Karen instead. And guess what? I'm happy! Love you both, Geno.
—Geno Banaszak

My Pride and joy - see you Friday - this will be an exciting visit - Natalie in OBA (Go BA!) and Lisa voting for the first time! Treesa and Aunt Jewel
