Always moving eastward, she lived in Harrisburg then Philadelphia where she met husband John. Born on Broad Street not far from where the Phillies, Eagles, Flyers and Sixers ply their trades, a graduate of three local schools (Bishop Neumann High, the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science, and Temple University), it's hard to imagine anyone being more Philadelphian than John.
He taught her about good olives, opera, tennis and Italian cooking. She taught him about Irish stew and having a dog. Together they started a book club that's met every month for nearly 20 years.
They retired to the Jersey shore where Nancy improved her backhand and discovered a talent for ceramic sculpture. John started a science program at a nearby community center. They took Italian lessons. And they dreamed...of living in Italy. When they decided to make that dream a reality it was the start of the best year of their lives--and a story they wanted to share.
Nancy and John recently relocated to Fort Myers, Florida, a city they hope to love as much as Parma, Italy.показать меньше
