I was in Greece where my Father was honored with a bronze bust in front of the church he financed near Korinth. The Governor spoke, the Mayor spoke about him - JAMES DANIELS, also know as "Hadjidemon"- which is a nickname he was called because he had been baptized in the River Jordan.He was a very religious and spiritual man who never forgot his native country. When I got back to NY, I had the great pleasure of meeting GINA LOLLOBRIGIDA at the K - LOUNGE, BOMBAY PALACE at 30 W. 52 Street, a cozy and secluded upstairs den. She was second runner-up at Miss Italy and famous for her role in Solomon and Sheba. In the l980's she ran for Italian Parliament and won a seat. She still is beautiful. The first large party in the department of pediatrics at Mt. Sinai hospital will be on December 20, in the afternoon. You can donate toys and that will be great. It is organized by The Eve Fenton Love-All Foundation, Inc. For further info call 212-977-3748, 212-273-5706 or 212-699-7742- bring toys for the children, or mail in a check to this foundation that does such good for disabled children all year long. Attending their lovely event at the Rainbow Room, Jerome Richards of OPpenheimer & Company, who has received The Order of Lafayette, the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem , the the Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, said "this is the most important charity event in all of New York, and I fully support it". |
