Hello Everyone, I am practicing my Italian as I am going to Italy at the end of July for a couple of concerts there. I am happy to be a guest of the Marche Tourism Board and glad to be friends with such wonderful people as Anna Rita and Corrado. Grazie Mille. Other things are going very well here in NY. I recently sang for Jerry Vale at his Birthday party and I was truly honored to be there. I also had the pleasure of meeting Sergio Franchi's son and first wife, Yvonne Franchi. What wonderful people they all were. I grew up on Jerry Vale's records and even now as I listen to them I am amazed at what a beautiful voice he has. Thank you to my friends Mr and Mrs. Frank Mercede for bringing me there to the party. Fun stuff. I hope everyone is well and enjoy your summer!
