![]() I asked Mary to share the story of her gown. Mary said; “after not being claimed at the Dry Cleaners for two years, this dress was offered to my friend, Roseanne, she accepted it and shared it with me. It is truly a Cinderella gown and a Cinderella story. Put on the dress and all of a sudden I was carried away into a fairy land where I was so special and I could do anything. While I wore that dress I floated around hotel and then danced as I never did before at the Savoy. Don’t tell anyone (that's a joke) but since no one could see my feet I even danced to songs I didn't even know. The best part of the whole day and evening was when Tom Crosby; our "Tommy" danced with me. Talk about feeling 21 again. That's what this whole thing is about. Fun, fun, fun.
