Well the time is here-We are moving to LV to pursue the dream! I'll be leaving on 9/3 and will be posting updates on this site to keep you all informed. Thank you for all the well wishes and prayers! We love you and will miss you dearly! Special thanks to those who came to see our final performances during the month of August 2005. It is definitely a bittersweet time as we say goodbye to family and friends, but the good news is that Vegas is only 4 1/2 hours away on Southwest Airlines, so come and visit! Gloria and I have a special tug on our hearts as we say goodbye to the beautiful Franciscan Sisters of Saint Joseph. On 8/11 we became Associates of their order and we take their love, prayers and blessings with us.

God Bless you all and watch the site for updates and look for upcoming emails!
