Joe started dancing over 30 years ago with Gail and they taught side by side for many years. He was the perfectionist of the team and always encouraged his students to strive for excellence. He presented a quiet dignity both on and off the dance floor. His presence is still felt at the studio, and we will miss him always.
John started his dance career 25 years ago as a student with Gail and progressed to teaching for Teachers IV during the last 10 years. He continued his dancing until his illness would no longer let him enjoy one of his greatest pleasures. John was a dear friend to Gail and the studio. We nicknamed him "The Prince of Smooth Dancing". We will remember him fondly and hope his dance card will always be filled.
