• "Wonderful article, Annette! I was very sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but I know that you will tackle it with the same strength and perseverance that you use to handle any challenging situation you encounter. Hard to believe that we were all dancing together at Fenway not too long before the pandemic hit with full force. I'm glad that we were able to share that fun time together and I look forward to seeing you and Jeff once again when the Center can safely reopen."- JW
